right I'm throwing this out there, first up, I'm rubbish at organising anything, but it has become apparent some of our members are not hitting it exactly like Jos Butler at the moment, so maybe some practice? Batters and bowlers of course....it not all about the batters.
So just getting a feel if anyone would like to attend, last one at Eversley is a great surface, smack in the Hampshire Brexit voting(just kidding) Hampshire Countryside and the is a pub down the road which serves the cold stuff and encourages chat about cricket.
Which day is the problem as a lot of you may have a Sunday game.Personally I can only really get a Sunday net by giving up one of my Sunday games(married) but if that proves a popular day maybe we can do it.
I'm thinking July....
Let's get some feedback and go from there?
Nothing's organised just throwing it out there, and if Simon,Pete, cam and the Cat turn up the bat collections will be off the scale..
:)

I'm keen for a Sunday net at Eversley
@simonmay5 @Northern monkey @petehosk @Batbuddy99 @IWTUK
Annyone else keen??
-
Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeesssssssss!!!! I am there buddy! I will make myself free on a Sunday.
-
Oh yes, cracking shout
Sunday's ok for me
-
Depending on which weekend it is in July I'll certainly come along!
-
ok good news i'm checking availability with the centre.
it's £35.00 per hour with a machine in one lane.
will confirm, all are welcome
-
Count me in
-
I am in mate especially as it's a Sunday
-
@ppccopener depending on numbers, obviously, I thought that the two nets worked well so we could have a bowl in one lane and the machine in the other.

yeah absolutely, im just trying to get available dates for sundays in july and this looks a goer....
-
I'd be keen depending on the sunday
-
Let's throw some dates out there:
I have no Sunday games on the 10th of the 31st July, so those would be the most ideal
How does that sound to everyone else?
-
let me check the 10th bat buddy and everyone
-
10th july is available from lunchtime . I can either book 2.5 hour slot about 2pm or a 3 hour slot
does that suit?
-
3 hours sounds good to me!!
-
Yep sounds good
-
I'd be game for this sounds really good - I'm also pretty local to eversley. Just name the date - 3 hour sounds good too!
-
3 hours is getting booked 10th july.
gives us oldies a chance to catch our breath(a kip)
all welcome.
-
Thanks for arranging Carlo, I'll confirm my attendance now and pay you as soon as you tell me how to!
-
ok lads we are booked 10th July 2-5 pm, 2 lanes, 1 bowling machine
not sure exactly how many of us there will be, about 10 at the moment and it's £105.00 for the 3 hours. my paypal address is carlomarcangelo@aol.com
there will be room to accommodate others should you wish to come as well as the regulars.
the last few have been fun i'm sure this one will be too, everyone gets a decent bat and for those who have been short of time in the middle we can accommodate maybe a bit extra, there's enough of us who know which end to hold and share some tips..
the winter nets certainly helped me get a bit of form back
see ya there!
:)
:)
-
Just a bit of an advance warning
Last week when I was there the conditions inside I would describe as rainforest-esque
It was raining outside so that may have contributed to the humidity but even so it was rather hot!
-
thanks will pack some extra deodorant and a bottle top so I can get it trundling off straight for once.
Cattus is gonna be swinging it at 90 degrees.
still won't stop @Batbuddy99 giving him the charge...
:)
-
Count me in mate and just let me know what you need money wise and I ping it over for you mate
-
@simonmay5 will you be bringing Tom again (and is he wielding a H4L Monster yet? I want to see him bat with one lol)
-

If you want I can bring tom but not sure many will want to face him now he has lost some weight he is very quick now

Cheers for organising Carlos
I've lost a stone in sweat, but soon replace that with a coupla cans of Stella
-
I'm on a cider drip.
Well done to all for making it to the end in the indoor jungle.
:)
-
Cheers for today boys.
I'm just reviewing the video footage and my camera only takes 9 minutes and 17 seconds of footage so I lost most of what I actually recorded :(
-
Quality event gents - really good to meet you all and great to see some quality bats on show.
-
When I hobbled back through the door last night, my wife said I looked like a 'big stiffy'
Which was nice.
-
sounds like you had a good Sunday evening.
All I did was connected myself to the garden hose for half an hour to replace 10 kilos of fluid.
@Batbuddy99 was not wrong, it was tropical.
I half expected David Attenborough to make an appearance with a gorilla
-
It was good to get bat on ball after a 3 week break in our league fixtures.
Apart from mr fattus cattus bowling, which I couldn't get near, due to the extreme swing/late dip/and turn!
-
the nets always help I find, just to feel bat on ball hopefully helped a few , in your case, violently bat on ball.. never has the 'ball-feeder' felt 'if it's straight at me it's going thru the glass and taking me with it' :)
and you can imagine @FattusCattus and @Batbuddy99 's Dad teaming up on the same side on a difficult track?
I'd just hand the bat in and go off to the pub rather than play and miss for 20 overs
:o
-
Ha ha
I could say loads about my inability to pick eithers bowling, but I blame the heat!
