By the pool

C'est What is Andre's favourite pool place here in Toronto, even though there are others within walking distance, such as Rivoli (which I prefer as the pool tables are more of a challenge, and sometimes they play british music), he does always prefer to go to there.... I think it's mainly for the range of drinks they provide but who knows....

Doesn't matter, here's some pictures of us enjoying it there...




We are playing English rules here, although I have had a few (drunken) games against some Canadian guys. One time I could just about make out the balls, let alone get the rules. I don't think there are many differences.....the big ones I've noticed is that you have to call every shot (although normally only if it isn't obvious), you only ever have one shot and any foul whilst on the black means you lose the game....Anyway, I've won 3 and lost 3 in these games so I must be doing something alright and local knowledge doesn't rule....
