Big word. 

Meaning: We’re a big bunch of girls made of sugar who are afraid of a bit of rain so training is cancelled tonight.

We are, however, not afraid of fine ales so a mandatory meeting is called for the Shed where Loosie and Hammer will lead a rehearsal of the new team song

Spheno Palatine Gangleoneuralgia is also known as Ice Cream Headache.

Twenty20 Match Report:

Bashers CC v Tongji Uni, 15^th June 2008

Rain, extra strong coffee, a tent in the middle of the field and a thieving little Bangladeshi ring-in were the lasting memories from the Bashers battle with Tongji Uni. But first….the news!

Flying at the speed of sound down the airport expressway like we were trying to out run the rain, Captain Loosey rallied his troops with a prep talk which was fuelled by 4 colds beers and a spinach & feta meat pie. We were ready, we were pumped and by the time we got of the Big Bamboo Booze bus we were ready to go to toilet; the booze was already kicking in!
