The mood is relaxed at the pub before the game
Darry becomes restless when his food takes longer than the 10 minutes promised
for the food
And so Martin provides some light entertainment
The Team
Not satisfied with just one pair of feet on the web site, Ed decides he should
ruin Martin's monopoly
Ken and Andy get stuck in
All the Seldons are in one cabbage pronounces Guthrie. The years of alcohol
finally take their toll on Gups, mingled with his early mornings they render him
unable to talk.
Not one to be beaten, Trouncey gets involved as well having just decided that he
would have something to eat
Ken captures the cat after hours of trying to lure it with a vinegar sodden chip
failed.
Having just woken up and arrived at the pub Andy has to remind Pete that he
should have had a shower.
10 meals later it is time to leave the pub - for Trouncey anyway.
The excuseless - Charlie - 2 dislocated shoulders having just been
operated on, Marshy - 4 wisdom teeth removed on Friday, Ed - ? what was your
excuse again Ed?
Debutant Alex Spencer-Allen is forced by his brothers to uphold the tradition of
tidiness and tuck his shirt in at the back
Guthrie crawled into this sack for a nap before the game
Alex opens the batting showing Ed up with some well timed drives and pulls
Ed holds the pose!
And then waits whilst it is retrieved from a nearby field
Come on chaps find the ball. It can't have gone that far, Ed hit it.
A sneaky bit of photography whilst umpiring
Alex drives through the covers
Enter the not so ginger anymore ninja.
Wrong way Martin
Pete becomes increasingly worried about his impending fine
Plenty of time to resolve that Pete - a long knock ahead.
Alex returns after a solid start to his Knockering career
Martin receives some punishment from the wicket
Ed is so competitive that he has to win the stroll round the boundary
A familiar site. Finding the lost ball whilst Martin stands watching
Charlie returns from his stint of pretending to be an umpire
A shot from in field where at least five of Martin's shots ended up
And there goes another one
and one more
The pavilion
Skipper of the day Ken Cowan unleashes a ferocious assault on the ball
And some more
And all is done for the Knockers innings 202-7
40 years old with the body of an 18 year old Sumo-wrestler
Shortly after the photo was taken the whole team were in hysterics when Ed
challenged Martin that if he didn't speak a word during the fielding session and
conversed only in monkey language he wouldn't have to pay a single fine
Martin parks himself in the disabled bay
The monkey boy receives his prize for his match winning catch in the dark.
