Report: | After a couple of weeks binge drinking and stuffing their faces with chocolate, the B team were back together and back in division 2. Tonight's reunion was with Merthyr B, who were dipping their toes in SC2 after their recent promotion.
Dan had picked a strong team for the occasion (everyone who could play) and had dug out some special socks too. Craig was mesmerized by them and didn't notice the first 2 games as they passed him by. He finally woke up in the 3rd and almost nabbed it but for a couple of badly timed tins and the knackered northerner was grateful it didn't go to a fourth. 1 nil Cowbridge.
The Silver Fox was up next and was looking good from doing 'dry (some of the days in) January' where you spend the month of January, telling everyone you're doing dry January! Mark on the other hand was a proper bloke and had been on the new Rum and lemonade diet since boxing day. It turns out that the Rum thing isn't great for playing squash and Simon is sticking to his dry guns and won't even have sauce on his chips! 2 nil.
Alex, oh Alex, the magic porridge pot of post-match banter, we need a whole page on this lad but time is limited so we'll just have to do bullet points... Barnett , headband, BST, anger management, Uncle Bryn's fishing trip, trying to intimidate a 14 year old and asking the chef for special sauce. When will it end! Stop little pot, stop!
New number 1 James was up against a tough opponent in Millie and both players were hitting some sublime shots, some super tight lengths, great cross courts and the rallies seemed to go on forever. Anyway, once the warmup was finished, James was knackered and lost the match 3 nil! The jury is out on what might be the worst signing since Antony went to Man Utd.
They say good things come to those who wait.. but this wasn't the case for poor Lawrence, who patiently hung around for Chris and then lost in straight sets. To be fair, the Ice Man (rarely referred to as 'the dude' and only by Mrs D when she wants him to put the bins out) was in fine form and even played some drop shots, which had the 'Energiser' drained and the crowd amped! 4-1.
Over in the rugby club Sir Kier Starmer must have cooked as we saw a 'return of the hostages', I mean sausages... and enough chips to feed us for the whole season. All washed down with some dry cider, some dry white wine and a dry martini. This dry January thing isn't as bad as it sounds! |
