It amuses me in a perverse sense that Higgins cannot find a shirt to fit him. The cunt looks like he is auditioning for the reboot of 'Dangerous Liasons' what with the puffy shoulders. What a fucking cunt. A fat ugly cunt at that. This bloke should get a job in a paint drying factory.

BOSS: Dry that fucking paint John
JH: Och boss yes. Can I just nip off to a hotel and meet some Russians first?
BOSS: Ok John, but listen you fat cunt, make sure you're back to dry some paint.

Twenty years or so ago I remember hearing that the game in Asia was growing fast and a future champion from that continent was inevitable in the coming years.

Well, it's probable taken longer than expected but the top end of that draw is certainly looking Asian heavy with five Chinese players, one Hong Konger and a Thai.

Having said that I'm going for Mark Selby to beat John Higgins 18-12 in the final.

The Wizard of Wishaw leads The Jester from Leicester 11-10 at present.

My pre-tournament prediction is still on the table. Just.

4 in a row going into the final session. Jester leads 13-11.

Selby makes peter edbon look like tony drago. Doing his best to make people turn off their TVs.

Piggins looks about 90

I'm torn.

If it ends 18-12 to Selby I'll be off to the Caribbean with a so long suckers to y'all.

Having said that I would miss the low life scum bagginess that make us great.

Bahamas or you lot.

To do, to do?

The little montage of old players the BBC are playing now, teamed with music of the era, is really moving me. Looking back, they all seem so young. It really hits home that death is inevitable and the passing of time, indeed life itself, is so very fleeting. It's my birthday today. I'm quite emotional.

I still hope the table falls apart at a critical juncture though. Then TalkSport can blame shoddy Chinese workmanship and make sure next years tables are built by verified 'check-a-trade' table builders.

God, they've put Dennis Taylor and the other Irish fuckwit Ken in to commentate for this crucial session. That's fucking SHIT.
