No we had the Maestro out here last few seasons, organised them through GM. I like a traditional pad in small mens and they fitted the bill. He gets a hard time Watson and most of it deserved but in all my dealings with him he has been great, a really nice guy.

Just doing some kit tidying so thought I would update my pictures here...

Is it game day yet?







Reasonable to say my kit needs to be used more than it is currently!! Still I have a game on Sunday which is good news.

It is a serious bat, the forerunner to the Hades (which has sparked a few copies) but basically an icon with an off-set edge.
All 3 of the bats are 2-11

Used my old Ice kit in the nets Friday so my good stuff wouldn't be sweaty for the match Saturday... felt so good that I used it in the match, with my 17 including a genuine accidental six down the ground 5th ball. Meant to hit it on the floor but got under it and it just sailed away, so must be life in the old bat yet! I've also taken the stickers off my GM and had that as my spare bat.

Can't be bothered to explain why I got them all out on the balcony, but actually took a picture of my current bat collection today:

@edge
Fake NB?? And what's the blank?

P.S why are they all lined up on the balcony??

We don't even have a friggin window.

Yeah local shop brand (made by Hunts I'm pretty sure) that lost its' stickers during refurb. Blank is an old and monstrous Kookaburra Kahuna that the Red Ink is based on.

Ha @smilley792 I wish that was my club!

We have frosted widows that don't open! Makes the changing rooms more like a sauna (and that gets worse once the showers are turned on!)

Played at Steep Hill in Ventnor on the Isle of Wight last year, they had a 2 storey clubhouse with the changing rooms upstairs. This was the view from the balcony.
I'm gutted I wasn't required to bat, I would've loved to have walked along the balcony and down the steps to start my innings

They replaced our changing room window with a scoreboard!!


That view does look spectacular.

Is that your gaff?
Our Saturday skipper lives a few doors along from you- nothing better than club nights there squeezed onto the balcony, drinking and watching the mighty Glos!

Yep! Cracking place to live for a cricket tragic, still can't believe I persuaded the missus it was a good idea... What's your club?

Why is Off side Boundary so small ?
