Photos + Hoodies + Colts Finals Help
I've added some more photos of the 1st XI to the Gallery section. Thanks to Dunc for taking them....with a beautiful close up of Paul Ebb being a particular highlight.
Also, for those that didn't notice, I forgot to put up a HOODIE sign up sheet. It will be in the club from Satyrday onwards. Sign up ASAP as ther obviously isnt much of the season left.
Lastly, The Manor is once again hosting the Colts Cup Finals this Sunday. Major has bulk emailed a call for help in running the bar / bbq / tea making etc etc. If you have an hour or two to spare please pop down and chip in for a bit.

Two weeks worth of updates and match reports available below.

In other news, cricket clubs appear to have the target of organised thieves over the last 2 weekends, one of which we were the unfortunate victim of. Please, DONT LEAVE VALUABLES LYING AROUND IN UNLOCKED CHANGING ROOMS. Give your items to the scorers to look after during the game, and always be vigilant if you see any suspicious behaviour at whichever ground you are playing at. There is a story in the Dialy Echo available here

I still have several LMCC hoodies that havent been collected. See me this weekend with your money to collect. It also looks like there are several more people interested in getting hoodies who missed it first time round. If there is enough interest I will be ordering more so let me know ASAP and spread the word. A sheet will go up the clubhouse as before on Saturday.

Finally, don't forget the 1st XI fancy dress social tomorrow night after the game at The Manor. The theme is 'Charity Shop' and the aim is to get the best/worst costume you can for £5 at any charity shop.
