It's been a few weeks since my last post. Not much has changed, I'm still no further towards getting a PA I have been told I need to wait at least another 6 weeks. As I have said in previous posts this is really frustrating as I can't practise when I want, but Sarah's auntie and uncle have been great, taking me to practise whenever they can. The 2011 Wheelchair World 9-ball Championships have been announced for Kielce in Poland from 31st August-4th September, I have a place but I have until tomorrow to work out if I can afford it and find someone to go with. Hotel and flights will cost around £800 each which isn't bad, but I'm not 100% sure I can afford it. I've got a 4x6 Mcdermott cue case on it's way and I'm expecting my new set of Brunswick Centennial balls to arrive either today or Monday.

I will be disappointed if I can't make the Worlds as I think it's the first time it's ever been held in Europe and it's not often we get as many spots as we have. The BWPPA British Wheelchair 9-ball Championship has been confirmed it will be at Rileys Wavertree in Liverpool in October. It's nice to see my pal Elliott Sanderson doing well too, he recently beat Tony Pyne at MMTV and he's in Austria at the Euro tour, he's definately one to watch for the future.

With 6 weeks to go until the BWPPA Merseyside 9-ball Shootout I will be hoping to get a lot of practise in.

Thanks
Matt
