I have a strange feeling that 'Butlins' was an unlikely destination for the Goulder family holidays. Just a hunch.

Obviously I have no chance. I'll set the line at 0.5 for points I'll win.
Charity will be the winner here.

Rumours of a potential upset on the cards gather some steam as players warm up matches go against the form book! Yong loses out 21-16 to Timo Boll in his warm up game while Goulder closes out a tense tie 21-19 against his fiancée
Dramatic shift in price

I hope it's a little more level than that pool table they had a year or two back where all the balls ended up on one side of the table.

Even if as flat as a pancake, I still suspect the ball is going to end up on one end of the table.

A lopsided table can lead to freak results such as Keith the Camel beating me at pool!

I used to live a blissful life, thinking I was pretty good at table tennis. Then this EPT Barcelona came along and I played with a few Germans and my ego took a huge knock. The spins that were possible and how they come off the bat are ridiculous when you aren't used to handling it. So no matter how much practice you have it really won't make a difference because the ball won't go where you expect off your own bat, let alone theirs, if they have a table tennis background.
