Heading doon to the Welsh Open early doors tomorrow and really looking forward to it. Nae Hankey or Wolfie sadly but still a strong field with O'Shea, Kellett, Winstanley, Green, Dekker, Fitton, Phillips and so on.

Meant to be playing in the pairs tomorrow night with my average of 16.7 I can't see it troubling anyone!

Just had a swatch at the draw for the early rounds of the UK Open.

Lloyd vs Klaasen is the obvious standout but Woods vs Hylton, Robinson vs Bates and Caris vs McDine all look like decent first round matches.

Yet again Lewis doesn't bother his arse after the break ... Anderson in great form as well, though.

EDIT: Fair play to Lewis.. pulled it back in the last couple of legs to snatch a draw.

Im moving to the Warrington area next week, which is only an hour from The Welsh Open! If it was this week, I'd be playing it. Next year though!

Good luck!

Delighted to see the way John Part has been playing this year.

In December, his career looked finished. Had been on a downward spiral for two years and it looked like he would fall the way of Manley and Mardle. But he has worked so hard to get back into the big events, winning twice this year, a couple of quarter finals and a Semi Final. Fantastic achievement and he really does deserve praise for his efforts.

Would love to see a run from him in Bolton next month.

I'll be honest. I'd be disappointed in John Part if he went out to anything other than a top player.

Scott Rand vs. Steve Beaton in the second round this year btw. Looks goooooooood.

Is the Uk Open televised? Seem to think ITV 4 might have had it last year.

It's on Sky Sports, as per usual.

ITV4 has dropped all its darts coverage after Sky outbid them (paid double, I've heard) for the Grand Slam.
