    Yes, looks nice. Are they really that expensive? As, the tables by B&W are lesser than that asking price.

    that is a lovely example, especially with the ball and penny tray underneath
    the score board is very like two at my club, except ours are a George Wright and a Thurston - the Thurston very similar with the rollers separated by the slate

    Ray Reardon (Snooker) Ltd. were operating in Bristol in the late 1970s and early 80s covering an area from the Midlands to the South coast. Not sure how much personal involvement Ray had.

    Says it was fitted by Ray Reardon did he have a table fitting company? I know his brother Ronnie did tables.

    Seems reasonably rare to see a BCE Westbury for sale. Would the cracked legs make a difference to the installation (or just cosmetic)? Could they be easily repaired?

    An outdoor snooker table!! ‘Just built’ yeah right!

    You’d need a set of steps to play a shot down the black spot!

    Yes, that's true. With Jimmy's it was very high, because he tinkered and added length to the butt also. He did it 2 or 3 times and the badge ended up 4 inches or so from the end. I wouldn't be surprised if some people requested to copy Jimmy's cue and have it higher than usual, without realising why Jimmy's was the way it was
