Frame 185

Frame 185 - Personalised Chalk Holders. It's been a while, but they're back. On a hot 19th June daytime Me1 and Me2 sweated it out to see if they could break the stalemate in this contest. Their playing space is too small and they mainly have to use child cues but they still pulled it out of the pocket for a thrilling frame. Though Rich forgot to turn his mic on and then blamed Chris Evans (not that one) so sorry if the sound quality is no good. Thanks to justgiving.com for their kindness and donation to the sport.

Frame 184

Frame 184 - Broken Glass. It's an unprecedented morning frame of Me1 vs Me 2 snooker with the action starting before midday, surely putting night owl Me2 at a disadvantage. And there's controversy and possible actionable sexual harassment from the start, but that's what you get when Trump is in charge (Donald, not Judd). Another crucial frame in this never-ending tournament. Who will win? Who indeed? One of the two probably. Forgot to mention that more self-playing snooker memorabilia will be going up on eBay this weekend. Check out https://www.ebay.co.uk/usr/herring1967 and bid for a bit of the original table or one of Richard's original balls.

Frame 183

Frame 183 - Afternoon Delight. Self-playing snooker moves into the prime time just after 5pm on a Tuesday slot, where the football scores are crazy and Rich only has 25 minutes to wrap up before he has to look after his own children. The players are getting to grips with the new board and the fact the room it's in is only slightly bigger than the board and it's a thrilling frame. Who will end up on top? Or will the stale-mate continue betwixt these two evenly matched and poorly defined characters?

Frame 182

Frame 182 - Chopping Board. The Mes are back and struggling to fit in (literally) to their new restrictive arena, but will one of them get the hang of it before the other and strike to victory? Rich is desperate to sell bits of the old board in the hope of covering the costs of getting it sliced up and mounted. There's a lot of football scores. But some sublime and some awful snooker. Just as normal. You can bid for a piece of sporting history and own a part of the original board to the envy/confusion of all your friends here: https://bit.ly/4gR8vrA

Frame 181

Frame 181 - No Sound. Me1 and Me2 are back in a new arena, with a new board and a very shoddy affair all round. If you're listening to the audio there's a good 5 to 10 minutes with no sound as Rich didn't turn on his mics, but we're leaving that in so you can enjoy it. If you're watching in video it's just as confusing. The referee loses track of who is who and the constricted new space is not fit for the sport, but the board is as flat as a pancake. So it's business as usual. Why is this still happening?

Frame 180

Frame 180 - Your Next Prime Minister. The Mes are back and this time the match determines who will lead this great self-playing, lonely nation. It's some of the best snooker we've ever seen on the old green board, so don't miss it!

Frame 179

Frame 179 - CBD. In a crucial frame, Me 1 takes on Me 2 at the sport of snooker and without hyperbole this frame is the greatest sporting event of all time. It may not count in the record books as both players are drug enhanced, but drugs are great and everyone should take them all the time. Anyway see or listen to what happens.

Frame 178

Frame 178 - Ridiculously Late Football Scores. The snooker is back (temporarily) and all involved are too exhausted to do this. They sleepwalk their way through it all making errors galore but creating a thrilling denouement. I'd say don't waste your time, but why else would you be watching?

Sit down James

The only way snooker should be played. On your own, in a loft, on a wonky green board, live streamed to a bunch of losers. SPSF forever!
