As all the important people in the world know, I’m leaving Shanghai/China this coming weekend. From next month onwards, I will be applying my trade in Bogota, Colombia. Interpret my trade as whatever you want, its probably close enough to the truth.

Since the SCC decided to cancel my testimonial match for the Leisure in preference for some other less important thing, and I was unfortunate that my wife decided to unselect me for the business in preference of shopping (I have about 50 hours of fights in the next two weeks, it was important to have the moral high ground), my testimonial match has been rescheduled to Thursday at 8pm. If you really need to know which venue, then you are not really a Basher and you can F*%# off. As per usual, I won’t participate in the prior activity, as its a waste of my time and my talents are more suited to a bar.

Lets celebrate my final POSITIVE contribution to the Bashers in a game. My first Basher’s catch. We can bash Turner and Dags for their rubbish umpiring another time.

Will probably be my last night out in Shanghai, so time to get loose. Signing off

We are in the process of clearing out things in our apartment and would like to sell a few items. If anyone is interested in the following please call me on 13524808006. Also you could email me on rowan.turner1@gmail.com and i can then send you the photo’s.

1.8m x 2.4m Rug – RMB400

Decathlon Standing Exercise Bike – RMB850

Also…. My last game for the Bashers will be on the 26th June. Maybe it would be a good idea if we could organise a farewell somewhere on the Fri or Sat before. Any suggestions are welcome

This Sunday there will be a lady wearing the baggy blue. China’s most capped cricketer, former national team captain and bowler of the tournament  at the recent Asia Games will be turning out for the Leisure.  So if you are out at the SRFC on Sunday it would be great if you could come and welcome Mei Hua to the club.  She currently coaches a couple of the local Universities and next Monday starts work at the SRFC working on our Sport For All programme.  Her first ever cricket match was 5 years ago against the Scottish Women’s team that famously beat the Bashers (Woodstock and Leppa should remember that game) but since then Mei Hua has moved up in the cricketing world.  Prior to becoming a cricketer she was javelin champion and could launch a javelin around 60m a skill that could come in very handy. She elected to join the Bashers because she heard there was another girlie called Loose playing for us.

Yes I am returning and I wish for all the usual pomp and ceremony.ie name calling, immature toilet humour,urinating on each other (the inquisition),toasts for no reason other than to stand up and poor memories.

I am in town from the 17th to the 23rd and look forward to playing a game on the 23rd…captains please put me into a pleasure team if there is a place. Looking forward to checking out the new digs at the “Toe”.

Happy Bashers Day and don’t forget to have someone christened or ordained as it was sanctioned officially by the “Pope”.

Ps for older Bashers I am heading to South Africa next week and will be staying with Chook Aikman in Joburg if anyone would like to leave a message to be passed on.

What happened to Bashers Broadcast??

Love and kisses No 1, Terror, Shrek
