Report: | The fairy tale continues. After Tuesday’s results we were level on points with Cobdown with a game in hand. So it was vital that we secured good points against Blackheath.
First up Matt v Dave. With Dave playing at No1 I was not able to avenge my defeat to him earlier in the season. However, I did get some pleasure out of watching Matt run Dave around the court. I wanted Matt to learn Dave and learn him he did.
Second game saw J-P take on Mr Clarke. Didn’t see much of this coz I was preparing the food for later. J-P ran out a 3-0 winner after taking the 1st and narrowly winning the 2nd.
Then came El Capitano v Andrew. I had sent an e-mail to my teammates claiming that I would be the sacrificial lamb at No2. There was talk of eating the lamb if I lost and after the 1st game some of my teammates were beginning to lick their lips. This inspired me to make a go of it in the 2nd, which I took after a tiebreak. However, Andrew was too quick at the front of the court and retrieved very well. I lost in 4 sets but staved off the cannibalistic advances of my team by reminding them that a) I was cooking the food for later, and b) there was too much fat and gristle on my bones to make the effort worthwhile. Logic overcame basic human desire.
Jim and Howard had comfortable wins against Messer’s Slater and Bradley rounding of a 4-1 win for Dulwich III.
Good old pub grub for dinner. Big fat sausages with mash and onion gravy, followed by Apple and Rhubarb crumble and custard.
Must mention Howard, who helped out by washing up after the meal. Great effort. However, half way through, Howard realized that the, somewhat large brush he was using to wash up with, was in fact a toilet brush which someone had left in the kitchen. Why, I have no idea. We laughed and laughed.
