| Report: | As always the Bromley boys gave their all, both on the court and, true to form, off it. A fun evening was rounded off by Will not being sure whether to be most upset at his Toyota Yaris [Car of the Year in 2002] being the butt of the parting teams jokes or having to mull over being described as looking like Duncan Marlow (some might say that’s an upgrade Will …)
Anyways back to the squash, the only thing Martin will be giving to a loved one this weekend is a nasty cold, as he almost coughed up a lung enroute to being beaten 3-0 by Tim. Woody & Sam traded shots, Woody then traded rackets … with Jason after breaking a string before pipping Sam at the post, 3-0.
Paying tribute to sponsors Olley’s, Will had gone for the matching black and yellow outfit down to the socks and shoes. Sadly Prince had sold him a red herring when he ordered the O3 Black as it turned out to be silver. Clearly upset by the anomaly in his attire, he allowed Jamie to ease two games ahead. However, learning his lesson from Surrey League the previous night when a 2 game lead had ended in defeat, he battled back to win in 5.
Jason started slowly, and Lewis brightly, so no surprise to see the latter take the first. Normal Jason service was resumed in the second but the third could have gone either way before he edged it and wasn’t troubled by the accelerator being stuck as he eased victory.
Duncan had stepped in for the Brendan at the last minute, and if the lack of notice wasn’t enough the 90 mins chasing round London to get some kit after being unable to get in to his own house can’t have helped. A tight first game saw Ian sneak it and then turn the screw, which must have hurt, particularly with Duncan wearing borrowed shoes a size too small.
So off to Olleys’ to pick up the quality Fish & Chips, as usual met with cries of excitement, apart from Sam ‘who doesn’t eat fish’ Stabler. Fortunately, the chef at Herne Hill’s finest was able to don his KFC hat and knock out some nuggets.
Fun match, pleased Martin didn’t die on court, as always excellent post-match banter with the BCC lads.
