Annual curry night
Why am I blogging about cricket in the middle of December? Well, I thought it was worth drawing attention to the fact that last week marked our annual North West Water Cricket Club curry night.
In truth, the turnout was a little disappointing; only five of us braved the cold weather. Still, the company was good, and watching Justin tentatively sampling his first ever vindaloo made it worth the effort.
But on to the cricket, we made our usual pledges to socialise more, try and get in a bit more net practice, and generally be a better team. I doubt it will happen but it's always nice to have good intentions.
We also talked about the way the club is run. At the moment, Huw (Jones) has to shoulder most of the organisational workload, supported by Steve (Daulby). Steve made a very sensible suggestion - that we operate a pyramid system whereby Huw phones two people, who each phone two people and so on.
If it works, it would at least relieve some of the pressure on Huw and allow him to concentrate on his on-field performances. If last year was anything to go by, he'll be our leading strike bowler next season.
