Had a very nice net today with a few 'members' (and I use that word advisedly) - hopefully someone will pop a few pics up later.
This lovely little nerdy fruitbowl was garnished by the attendance of Jake from Vitas, of whom it was a pleasure to see. He was clearly happy to be there, as his smile lit up the room when he arrived, however, he has the smelliest athletic support I have ever encountered.
4 hours of wobbly slow bowling and batting against the machine sorted most members out, and chief amongst the perspirers were Mt P Hosk and Mr T Line, both of whom moistened up lovely after a vigorous bat. Curiosly, one had wet legs, the other a wet top half!!
Mr Matt MPT7 protested vociferously that his shoulder meant he couldn't do much, but he spent most of his time with a bat in his hand, or sending down a variety of the filthiest legspin I have ever seen.
Mr R da Pixie marched around saying loudly "I don't know why everyone has so many bats - I've only got 1!" - so we locked him in the toilet.
Mr N Monkey moaned constantly about his joints and his age, whilst smoking the ball absolutelely everywhere - he seemed very enamoured with Petes Newbery long blade and peppered the rear netting.
Mr S May only brought 25 bats with him, and had a nasty habit of sneaking up behind you, thrusting his wood into your hands and saying "have a feel of this one then!"
Mr W Wickets continued has charity work towards all bowlers by donating them his wicket with alarming frequency.
Things learnt from this net: -
I need to get fitter faster to allow me to thrust my benders at people for 3 hours
3 bananas is 2 too many in the bowels department
Waiting for the ball to get to you when batting is a revelation - who knew?
