Some of my 2016
tour highlights: four friendly and well-matched opposition teams; fine weather; possibly the best Friday dinner yet at the
Station; Ghost Ship in the front garden at the Railway on Saturday evening –
nice to see a traditional local making a come-back; Werewolf introduced as an additional evening entertainment and
providing a fitting way to punish Graeme for batting and catching far better
for Worlingworth than he did in his appearances for us; O’Donnell beating
Hawkhead two sets to love on the tennis court; the Eastaway Fold now officially re-named the Forman Fold, but Dan emerging victorious at poker nonetheless; not
one but two curries (at least for some) – new competition generally agreed to
have raised standards at the Prince of India; the view of Framlingham Castle from the College
front door.
And I seem
to recall we even played some cricket: lost three, won one was it? Davidson run out Baxter on Sunday after
Worlingworth failed to accept an even easier gift of Baxter run out Davidson on
Saturday sticks in my memory, together with a mix of egregious drops and great
takes in the field at Nazeing (Graeme notable in both categories). There were also several fine innings
and spells of bowling, but I’ll leave comment on those to whoever has the
scorebook.
Many, many thanks
to Marc and Cheryl for organising another fabulous tour.
