Darky's from Britain? As in, this Britain? The one I'm in now? Sweet Jesus H Christ!
Erm, English pool involves hitting 7 balls of one colour (red or yellow), into pockets, followed by the black. There are loads of minute variations, depending on where you are, who you're playing with, and what colour jumper you have on. For example, having to nominate what pocket the black is being potted into, only having one shot (even if the other person fouls), when you're on the black, being able to hit any colour if you've got two shots, playing the white from the D or behind the line, and so on. Blah.
US Pool I always thought was the same, except you use spots and stripes instead of yellows and reds. I have no idea how to play billiards though.
(Actually, a local at Liverpool used BLUE and yellow balls. The madness. There was blood on the pavement the night I found that out, let me tell you.)
No-one's read this, have they? Because I didn't say "Stiff upper lip? Stiff something! Wahay!". Philastines.

He's not nearly as funny in real life, you know.

Well, certainly you must wait for him to get a name. BF is hard to pronounce, and I'm afraid, not sexy at all. Oh! BF! it ruins the 'mood'. I ask of you, can you eat pudding while thinking of BF? I certainly can not. Which means that skin of pudding on the top, which has the consistency of chicken gizzards mashed into a paste is left uneaten. And MM or DD niether like that much and say to me: "LTRMGNS, why did you not eat your pudding skin?" and then I'd reply: "I was thinking of BF." And then they'd say: "Well, then no more BF for you,YNGMN, go to your RM."

I must object to Simon's forward weapon turrent stealing so many threads. It's getting hard to fit anything else in here.
