It’s time for the irregular feature ‘Answers on a Postcard’ once again and with Crucible fever beginning to take hold and me wanting a couple of days off, it’s worth remembering someone who despite not making it to Sheffield has had a fantastic first season on the tour, none other than Jack Lisowski who is currently sitting at World number 33 on the one year ranking list.
Also, spare a thought for a young lad who will be woken up by chants of ‘CHAMPIONNNNN’ by his flatmate. We’ve all been there, haven’t we?  
Here, young Jack reveals his nickname frustration issues, why he says no to totty, why he has to do well in BBC tournaments as well as the inside ice-cream double scoop on what happened when Barry Pinches met Heston.

Hello Jack and welcome to ‘Answers on a Postcard’. Are you ready to face your most incisive interview to date?
Hello SB and readers, I think I’m ready, but please go easy on me.
Of course. OK, first thing’s first. THE burning question. You recently went on a trip to China with Judd Trump (since the interview China Open Champ), tell us Jack, how long exactly does he spend in the bathroom? I’ve heard it’s the best part of 7 hours a day.
I live with Judd Trump (since the interview China Open Champ), and can confirm the rumours of him spending up to 7 hours a day in the bathroom are in fact incorrect. However he is always the last one ready when we go anywhere. If he had the option of insuring his ‘roof’ I think he would.

What about this nickname thing Jack? Jumping Jack Lisowski? We prefer names like Jackpot Jack on here and a film buff even suggested Jack ‘The Big’ Lisowski, when is this important issue going to be resolved? Do we need to have a quiet word in Rob’s shell-like?
Ok SB, I think the name ‘Jumping Jack Lisowski’ was fairly terrible (and the main reason I lost that particular match) I would prefer either ‘Jackpot Jack Lisowski’ or maybe ‘Lightening Lisowski’.
Yeah, ‘Lightening’ is good, the power of the blog will get that changed for you. Anyway, snooker players aren’t generally known for their brains Jack, in fact some of them could quite reasonably be described as just a small step up from Big Foot, but you seem quite clever, are you really or is it just an act?
Some people assume that I am intelligent as I read newspapers and occasionally use ‘big’ words. I’m afraid they are deluded, during the week I mistook Thursday as a Wednesday and subsequently missed a good party and also the service due on my car…

I see you have just joined T, lots of players are now ting but not all of them, do you think that’s a good thing for the sport?
I joined T last month and I like it, every player should have one. It shows the more human side of snooker players.

John Higgins recently compared you to Jimmy White, does that mean he thinks you’re a good player or that you’ll never win the World Championship and end up in the jungle eating kangaroo shit?
John Higgins recently compared me to Jimmy White, I agree with him, we are both left handed…
I’ve already said you are a bit of a brainbox, but you are also a handsome young chap, you remind me of myself at your age. So tell us, are you fighting off the totty Jack?
‘Handsome?’ why thank you SB. Am I fighting off the totty? Well you are only young once and so I like to have fun. But some things are worth sacrificing and for me staying in and practising instead of going out on a Saturday night is one of them.
Maybe you’re not like me then…OK Jack, I feel we are getting to know each other better now so can you tell us who is the biggest dimwit on the pro-tour? The real top drawer thicko?
Dumbest players on the tour? I cant really say, it would get me in too much trouble. But I can think of at least 4 candidates…

Now I know that you were obviously spurred on to great things last year by winning the coveted ‘One to Watch’ Willie on here so you clearly had that edge. You are even in line for another one this year. But what are your main hopes for next season Jack? Oh, and are you taking good care of your Willie?
Winning the ‘One to Watch Wille’ was definitely inspirational, and helped me through the season.   Granted I only just found out when you mentioned it.. so thank you! I will make sure I take good care of it and hopefully I’ll soon have another Willie to polish. Next season I want to keep on climbing the rankings, and have a good run at a few venues. I’d like to do well at a BBC tournament so my nan and gramp can see me play on TV (they don’t have Sky).
Ok finally Jack it’s quiz time where I state five facts that I have been told and you tell me if they are true or false:
1. You once made a hundred break so quickly that on the way around the table you bumped into yourself having altered the space/time continuum.
Ha ha! That’s false SB, it happened twice.
2. Barry Pinches is known as the Heston Blumenthal of snooker and once tried to sell mustard flavour ice cream from his van in Norwich City Centre.
That’s true and I heard he made money.
3. Jamie Cope only wears an orange waistcoat because he works part-time for Easyjet and he can’t afford a nicer one.
False.
4. Alan McManus real nickname is ‘Spangles’ as he is a great fan of 1980′s sugared confectionery.
A guess this one SB, I’d say it was true.
5. Ricky Walden once stuck his tongue out so much on a shot that he ended up mistakenly licking his opponent, Rodney Goggins.
Ha ha! I think you will have to ask Rodney on that one SB.
Thanks for being a good sport Jack, you are now a fully fledged ‘Friend of the Blog’ and to prove it I will even plug your T for free!! How kind is that? You can follow Jack on T here.
Jack’s nickname needs changing I reckon for next season as it’s putting him off. So we should all vote on what we want it to be and I’ll submit our results in the form of an official petition to Rob Walker and World Snooker when I go to the Crucible.
