Remember you doughty Northerners, let's get some pictures of both members and kit, so the rest of us can see you in your ruddy-cheeked glory.

Watch out for Dave - he talks himself down.

Watch out for Simmy - he talks himself up.

Spent the last few days try to get hold of one of the stand alone stumps (half bowl bottom always rights itself) to mount my go pro to and film but failed miserably.

Not sure how I'll mount it for decent vids now? So may not bother.

Thanks for the net fellas and really nice to meet those I've not met before

Enjoyed myself. Good laugh. Good banter. Plenty off cricket bats and even some cricket on offer.
good to meet you all.

Bat count was near 30 I believe for 7 of us.....lol

Next time I need to not have a club net before. I was shattered beyond. My body is ready for bed.

Not sure many pics where took. I have a few mins off video footage but nothing special. Currently uploading

Hopefully we can do it again.

Just finished a extra hour with the mad man and the machine my body is banged.

Great to meet you all and who had a varnished ball.

We should defiantly do it again

I enjoyed it too, it was good to meet everyone, the cricket was pretty good too.

Never seen so many bats in one place though

I'd be up for another net, just let me know when

Did you get a full hour in? I was cream crackered from the net never mind a machine after.
Dotballs auto feeder likes to mix it up!

Ian i think that was his name did one of the best machine sessions ever got to admit and showed me my deficiency and i have a plan to work on he did vary it greatly and showed me the light. Good session

Yes did the full session think i have picked my number 1 bat for the season... The zizi

No the owner fed me for a hour great session not a half volley in sight... Plus we did have all the bags so around 120 balls at a time very good best �18 quid i have spent in a long long time.

I've had a few 10 min sessions while waiting for mates to arrive. He certainly works you over. But as you said you learn stuff you need to work on.

Lumsden · « **Reply #74 on:** December 30, 2014, 11:36:20 PM »

Personally I found the session very rewarding as often when I bat in pre-season nets, the ball doesn't actually reach me. Excellent mix of both bowling and batting styles although I did briefly resort to bowling legside filth to avoid being sent into orbit by one particular batsman. Think I might do something similar down at Lordswood (Tadcaster between York and Leeds) in the coming weeks.
