I worry about how snow plough drivers get to work - mainly in December / January. I sleep better in the summer months.

Are you a follower of HMHB ?
It usually starts with me thinking "put the ball out and settle for a point , but somehow it gets worked out to the left wing and loops into our area. However, I am comforted by the double fact that Burn has it covered and even if it reaches Benteke he will laughingly trip over it. But then....."
Once the thought enters my head I know that I'll be awake for hours .

Kelly Brook tapping on my window pestering me for sex every bloody night.
How can the table be of infinite length when the M3 isn’t? You’d also struggle on some of the bends.
Just until it falls off the table where the cushion used to be
That's embarrassing, it means I wasn't enough.

With you on that one...
Also the Pigeons who do their little 'shag dance' on my balcony at half six every morning. Is there such a thing as exploding bird seed?
I'm sure if you ask the boy pigeon, the answer would be yes. Possibly "Coo!"

To calculate the answer, Newton's second law is used, but the following information is also required.
To calculate initial ball velocity:
E = energy used [to whack the ball] - need to know weight of cue-stick and strength of arm - in Newtons [energy]
Next we need to understand the object:
M = the mass of the snooker ball - Aramith balls are 142 grams
R = the radius of the snooker ball - Aramith balls have a diameter of 2 & 1/16 inches, so R = 1 & 1/32 inch
Then, to ascertain distance travelled, we need to factor in the environment variables:
F = friction - the friction of the green baize slowing the ball down - assmed the cloth nap is standard [top of table to bottom] so increased nap-resistance will be present
A = Air resistance, including any wind effect - 1 bar is assumed, at sea-level
Computer says 51.28 metres.

My guess would be some combination of gravity and centrifugal forces.

Regardless of distance travelled the referee would have no option other than to call a foul and a miss.
