Pleasure

Bugs started the game in inspired form, winning the toss, and winning the discussion about whether to play from 2 ends or 1.

Well, it all started well, the weather had cooled from last week, all Bashers were at the Camel at midday ready for the game. The bus ride included the usual talk, tactics, ass-less chaps and slating Vettel and Nadal for being better sportsmen than us!

After waking up at 11.20 after having hit the snooze button too many times, I was proud of my effort to make it to the Camel by 11.40, and indeed not be the last to arrive. There the team assembled and the conversation was mostly about the weather, talk of plus 40 degrees and high 90's humidity, and whether or not this would affect our decision to bowl first. Oh, and Swoop also expressed his opinion on the relative intelligence of the fairer sex.
