Apologies to all, but with the sheer number of byes and missed games this season I have been misnaming the results. To the sharp eyed among you that noticed (i.e. no-one) the most recent set of published results should have been called week six not week five. Anyway here are the results for the week just gone:

Commentary:
After last weeks games, including what is surely the greatest comeback since Take That reformed, we're tied top of the table with Thatched Cottage. However our frame difference is superior to the thatchers (having lost five games fewer) thus we are top.
Further down the table it's one-from-four competing for the ignominy of "nearly second place", with the Likely Lads in pole position having, as they do, an eleven frame advantage in the frames-for column over their nearest rivals.
As we're now halfway through the season, this week sees the start of the reverse fixtures from the first half of the season - which means that the Earls Angels will be looking to avenge the 11-1 defeat dished out to them on the first night of the season, as will the Golden Cross and Farmers Rats (losing to Rackspack, The Likely Lads & Thatched Cottage 11-1, 10-2 and 9-3 respectively).
We'll be dipping into the mailbag this week, so don't forget to send your news, views, reviews to rackspack@hotmail.co.uk. We've already got a full bag this week (as has John Young after an unfortunate incident with his draining tube, however that's another story) but we're always looking for more contributors, so after tonight's games if you feel hard done by, or hard up, or just hard, then do email us your story. Actually if either of the last two apply, then we don't want to know but thanks for reading anyway.
K&K.
