Sorry pressed post before I had written the text.

I found this tonight when my wife asked my to take some garden rubbish to the tip. I tried to get out of it but she can be very persuasive my wife so I went and thank god I did. I saw the handle hanging out the top of the wood section and thought that looks like a cricket bat. My eyes almost fell out when I saw it was a genuine GM players Icon. It has a split in the toe and possible delaminates face but pings like mad and lovely pick up. Gonna see what Mr Kember can do with this and see if I can salvage it.

That's the 2nd GM that's been found in a skip within the last couple of months...

How very strange! You've got yourself a belter there pal by the looks of things.

My money on an ex chucking some blokes gear out. Even the average villager will know what that's worth and that anything is worth a repair

I live close to places like Hartlet, Tumbridge wells, sevonoaks etc where money is no object. These guys would use these as net bats, seen a cenkos at One of the tunbridge grounds a year or 2 back i seem to remember? It may be that the bat is completely knackered but I will get some expert advice from Mr Kember. Worse case sceniro a get a free grip :D

Dam, when I see things like this I wish I was patroling a skip at night. Once when I was sorting put my house a chap was throwing a new laptop in the skip with its box due to a cracked screen, unlucky for me it went to one of the workers.....

Just spent a few minutes tapping this up with an old ball and I really doesn't sound good about 6 inches up from toe and all the way across. Sounds very Tinny. Looks like de-laminated. Probably why it's in the skip as from my knowledge very little an be done with that.
