I finally got round to posting a video on You Tube.
You can find it here:

I would be grateful for any feedback, good, bad or indifferent, it all helps me to improve.

Many thanks,
Tom

Tom,

It looks good. The only bad habit is when you go south with the ball under the table.

You should say that you are going to put the ball away before you go under the table.

It looks fishy if you don't.

Still great job.

Sean,

I've made some changes that were the result of the great feedback that I have received.
I've been pretty ill lately and I can't be bothered to get out the video camera.
As soon as I feel better, I'll do an updated version and post it here.

Thanks to all who gave me tips, hints and feedback.

I play with big cups

The only thing that I can say is, in the beginning, what is your motivation to take the ball that was in your hand, place it in the cup, and then apparently dump it back into your hand. I am big on justification, and that gray area threw up a red flag to me. Other than that, it was pretty good, a little standard, but pretty good none the less.

Nice job Tom. I wasn't expecting the billiard ball as a final load. Humor
goes a long way with me. Hope you're feeling well again,
