I don't know, but I think every other one has to be a colour.
*Isn't racist as I don't think they let black people play snooker anyway...
**Really isn't racist. Honestly.
***Really!!
Can we all at least agree that strapping guns to the horses is a way forward?
I think allowing players to lay snookers should be banned. It's just putting lethal obstacles in the other player's way!

If War Horse was like that, I might have watched it.

We can only hope you weren't trying to smuggle a point into that shitty joke.

Don't put yourself down! Your joke made me chuckle.

Quote: David Bussell @ April 6 2013, 12:26 PM BSTProbably not. But we might want to think twice about forcing people into cars against their will and making them drive full tilt around a course peppered with lethal obstacles, which is closer to what horse racing is.
That

I refer you to the answer I gave to the person who made that 'joke' originally.
I'm not entirely sure why you are being, quite, so rude and aggressive but it's fine for you to argue that you think horse racing ( or as you've said, just some of it ) is cruel. It fine, even, to assert that it's better that the thousands of horses that live perfect life should never have existed in the first place to save the percentage that are killed.
You're even perfectly entitled to say that you think that over a hundred thousand people should be put out of work to save these few unfortunate beasts... All these things are ok but, But... When you argue that Newton's laws of motion are wrong and counter these laws with "bollocks" I think you are getting a little above yourself.
I just stumbled across this . . .
Passports
Never had one
Might need one
Is it an easy process?
Can it be done online? Or through the post?
