Quokkas Cricket Club

Quokkas 262-7 (Rashid 78, Faggie 69, Driver 24, Ali 18no Skip 16no) beat Salix CC (Yak 4-19, Evil Dave 3-19, Ali 2-27)

Last, but not least Sunday match report of the season. Once again, I was not in attendance, so don’t expect any great insight, but looking at the scoresheet, this appears to be an absolute drubbing for Salix. I wonder if they will deem the Quokkas to be ‘unsportsmanlike’ and consider scrubbing us from next year’s calendar?

Quokkas CC 206-2 (Irfan 114 no, Faggie 72 no) beat Salix CC 204-6 (Jez 2-14, Tom 2-20, Irfan 1-23)

This is another game I missed I’m afraid. The fact we won is evidence of that. Having rid himself the skipper curse, Faggie seems to have got the hang of it now. I am guessing he was the skipper for this one, as bowlers were taken off and then brought back on later. Typical Aussie, doing things to actually win games.

Salix 137-2 (Faggie 2-36) beat Quokkas 134 all out (Rachid 35, Egg 10no)

In between watching Youtube videos of vintage tractors being maintained, I spent a small part of my winter learning how to butcher a rabbit. Why? We’ll it’s a good thing to know should my plane ever crash and I find myself stranded on an desert island or indeed I have just decided to do a `Christopher McCandless ’ and leave you all behind for good. Mrs Seagull looked at me like I had gone mad. But as I said to her, we should all understand where our burgers come from and maybe even to have butchered the animal (at least once) before we get to eat that kind of meat.
