Missed last Saturday but the previous Saturday played against a guy who played very nicely for 123no using a GM 1885 - which sounded superb.  Don't think I've ever seen one in a game (presumably why they got binned!)

A team mate has acquired his brother's Mjolnir - it's an absolute gun...

Some nice kit on display yesterday.

The opposition opener was using a bat with a logo I recognised, but it wasn't until after the game I realised where I'd seen it before. @Bambooman's profile picture! I didn't get to judge how well the bat went though as the bloke wielding it was out LBW early on.

Also on display was a lovely dynadrive that scored 70-odd.
A vantage Lithium
A nice looking salix sent the ball over the fence for the winning runs.
There was also a New Balance TD560 that made a very nice noise (and I love this season's stickers!)

All the quality kit on show almost made the 2 hour drive to the game worth it alone!

There was a nice Bradbury used by one of the opposition today.

One of them was usuing all blank gear (I'm assuming OLS) that looked really classy. 

Their centurion was using a GM Apex (old school and more break than bat but pinged well)

I was more interested in the kit on show than I was the cricket itself, I'm starting to think playing isn't my thing...

Couple of nice Hawks on display today, and a new team mate of mine has some lovely Robert pack stuff!

Oppos number 4 had a great nicola scoop. And not a recent one. A very thin old one covered completely in the old white fibre sheet.
Was flaking while he was at the crease.

His pads and gloves seemed similar vintage too and yet he was only about 24?

A classic gray nics lover? Hand me downs? Who knows. He didn't last that long.

A lot of Select cricket stuff today.

Guy using a Redback for Penarth CC today, didn't see much action as he just swung and missed before I bowled him!

Oppo top 4 included two Lavers and one M&H. One of the lavers was really nice, it had a lovely sound and a great middle, luckily I got the owner to edge to the keeper on 49, he got a ton off us at the beginning of the season.

I forgot a few from yesterday, there were two nice Chase bats,

I got a guy out who was using a very nice looking SS Herotage (very concaved) and there were a couple of bats that I was sort of interested in. Was pleas a Slazenger V100 that made a lovely noise, and the other being an old GN fusion that peppered the boundary.

Opposition batsman had a very nice G2 H4L NV yesterday. He hit a nice 40 until i got him out.

Played with the Malden Wanderers overseas today (alec Stewart's club). He had one of Stuart Walters' redbacks (surrey and Glamorgan).  It was lovely. Oppo quick dropped one in short and it was still going up when it hit the trees...

Seen my first Kudos 2 in the flesh at the weekend, looked brand new with a IJC sticker on the back. Looked a lot nicer than my 2 season old Kudos

Came up against a Willostix Slugger this weekend,

Bat seemed to go well enough, sort of matched the batsmen who "slugged" everything, personally thought it was one of the uglier bats I have seen.

Looked like half the team used the same stick though, it re-appeared 2/3 times.

Well, if you're having those thoughts, you know what you needs to do!!

Seeing a few juniors with Woodstock bats in my area, not sure on the reason why? There not all playing at the same club as well
