Not sure how i stumbled across this during a Bangladesh collapse but i discovered this cocktail recipe named for our new sponsor and Basher #2.

Bada Bing

• 2 basil leaves, chiffonaded
• 3 pitted Bing cherries
• 1 oz Plymouth gin
• ½ oz simple syrup
• ½ oz maraschino liqueur
• ½ lime juice
• 3-4 oz champagne

Shake basil, cherries, gin, simple syrup, maraschino and lime juice with crushed ice. Pour into a highball glass and add more crushed ice, if needed. Top with champagne and stir. Garnish with two skewered cherries, if desired.

Now i’m not sure if that sounds like our Tony at all and who knows what chiffonaded means. Maybe we can do better so the challenge is out there for the Bashers & Geishas to GOTPSM and come up with cocktails for other famous Bashers.

We’ll feature them here and perhaps the Geishas will organise an event later in the season where we can try them out.

Dear Bashers,

As the President has previously mentioned to you we will be entering into the dawn of a new era in 2010 with a new major sponsor.

The Big Bamboo has been a great supporter of the Bashers over the years. Especially in the early days when we were a bunch of drop-out drunkards – a far cry from the sophisticated demeanor we present to today.

The Bamboo will continue to have a place in our hearts and be a place visited by us socially in future. However, as a club we would like to say farewell, in true Bashers style, by sinking a few beers and get legless with Lara one last time.

Sticky Wicket Bar – Big Bamboo
7 pm Tuesday the 2nd of Feb

This is the first of many events for the Bashers in 2010. Please get here and start the year how you intend to finish. So I am expecting all of you to make it down for a few quiets after work, followed by about 18 rounds of swing of the doors.

Ladies & Gentlemen of the GREATEST CRICKET CLUB IN SHANGHAI [if not the UNIVERSE]!

The End of Season function/Awards Night is upon us once again, and its our time to reflect on a WONDERFUL year of highlights, both on and off the Ground! This year, following last years antics, we’ve decided to turn it up a few degrees and get ‘Loose & Local‘!

Check it out:

Date: Friday 27th November 2009

Location: Ya Ke Xi Xinjiang Restaurant, 379 Xikang Road [near WuDing Lu]. 西康路379号靠近武定路

Time: 6:30 PM kickoff

Cost: 150 RMB for a smorgasbord of wonderful ‘local‘ cuisine and ‘loose‘ drinks [free flow VB, with spirits, mixers and the like in there as well!]

Dress Code: Loose, but local!

This is the occasion where we award ourselves for our efforts during the year, and vote on the upcoming years committee. 150 RMB is a great deal for a great feed, all you can drink, a night with mates and collectively patting each other on the back.

Last year we had 30+ punters at the end of season function, as we are only 2 blocks north of the Big Bamboo this year, I would expect we can push 50+ punters in the room! We Own the place for the night, so LET’S GET AMONGST IT! There’ll be belly dancers, singers and maybe a few suprises thrown inbetween!

for a look at last year’’s pissa (before the cameras got put away and things really got messy) see the evidence here.

Please comment below to RSVP as soon as possible, so we have an idea for numbers and catering logistics.

See you there, bright and early for a few beers!

Stay Loose
