Impressive! Don't suppose you need a ringer for next season? Always fancied playing LMS but never been in a position to really, do you play midweek?

We always need a ringer! We once had the dad of one of the guys playing on the other team. He was too old to run and just smashed it about against his own son, legend.

We play on a Sunday at the Clapham Common Oval (Artificial pitch with mystery bounce)

Decent mate, always up for a game where I can - I'm not planning on playing as often on a Saturday this year so definitely keen to get involved

@tim2000s @plumb111 @FattusCattus @farnham_quins_2 @Boondougal @TBONTB @SOULMAN1012

Alright lads, I've heard back from the Oval and they have the following dates available all evening;

15th December, 16th December, 17th December, 18th December

The price is £40 per hour per lane, it needs to be paid on booking so if anyone who is interested could confirm either way that'd be good - one of my mates from the office is going to come down too

16th works for me. Only thing I would say is that you don't really want more than 6 in a net, otherwise there will be too much hanging around.

Yeah good point, 10 mins each batting pretty much

We've got 4 for the 16th so far then, any takers for the other 2 spots?

Like I said I can only do 17th. Would also say that 1 hr is not a lot especially if your going to travel to the oval a week before Christmas in rush hour.

I'm in for the 16th. I think if we have 6 of us for an hour that should be ok, as long as we get there in time to get changed and setup beforehand. we could always do one again after Christmas?

May I crazily suggest 6 people for 2 hours? 2 goes at batting for everyone and still only £14 each?

i know my bowling is friendly ...

but taking a battering for an hour and 40 minutes could be tough.

I would suggest there might be permitted breaks for people to peruse the collection of bats that might be there :)

I'm gonna bring my H4L Devil, Red Ink custom and GN Powerspot. all are either brand new or barely used...will bring a couple of others that have had actually had some use too

Have to say I'm no quality all rounder and am definitely more like Graham Gooch in the figure department ( that's his figure today not when he was playing) but happy to try 2 hours, 2 bats each.

Sounds like the 16th will be best then, we've got the 6 so I'll get that booked up

Shall we say 2 hours from 7pm, or shall I try 6.30pm first?
