Well he came in looking at 2-9 but just wanted to get the best feel of bat really so we shaped it up and it was 2-9 naked and so has finished at 2-11 but picks up like 2-8. It makes it very easy when I have a customer who trusts my judgement on pick up as it is something that is crucial and was something we always looked for when I was playing.

After finally getting home after picking my bat up from Paul's ( car breaking down) I have sat and admired my new bat. It looks much, much bigger in the flesh and the finishing is the best ive seen. Again photos don't do the stickers justice either. The rebound of the mallet and an old ball is suberb and it will only get better.

Irony - the use of words that mean the opposite of what you really think, especially in order to be funny.
