Re: Things that you rate!
Winning outright against Cove today, perfect timing as our 40th year celebration is tonight, will be a big night for the club. My first outright win in any grade of cricket.

Congrats lad, my most memorable outright was in A2 turf, four of our blokes had been choofing before the game (our skipper was pulled over by the police on the way to the game and had avoided detection by hopping straight out of his car). The opposition were doing drills an hour before the start, we were either stoned or nursing hangovers (or just lazy), knocked em off by about 20 runs and couldn't stop laughing as their coach went off his tits at them. Lost outright a couple of weeks later against an ordinary opposition and the skipper lost his shit, whilst teeing off on us (which we deserved) chucked a golf ball against the ball that nearly decapitated a couple of us.

Used to love beating Cove when they were in the SCA, mob of wanks.

That's usually when my attention turns from cricket/SAfooty to the night ahead (chasing women).

A few games later there were about 6 blokes on the pipe, one of them hit a ball that hard it bounced off a gumtree on the boundary and ended up back on the pitch. I've played district cricket but I've never seen a ball hit that hard.

Re: Things that you rate!
I was so, so unwell on Friday that I couldn't make it into work.
Fortunately I was well enough to go out in the boat with my brother and get 26 crabs, 5 squid, 6 tommies and 4 whiting though.

A miraculous recovery, no doubt thanks to the healing waters of Gulf St Vincent (St Vincent being the patron saint of taking sickies, IIRC).

Without question. By a sheer stroke* of luck I also managed to find a cooler bag with several frosty cold lagers on the vessel, these were a timely find as around 9:00 am I felt my hydration levels dropping rapidly. Dodged another one there I can tell you.

Mandatory safety equipment. In case of emergency, crack the tubes.

Anyone see the French ice skater pop a nip during her performance?

Don’t get too excited as she is 35kg on a heavy day so there’s not much too see.
Google it!
