Old match report – Park Hill Cricket Club v Reigate Priory (2008 season)

I found this report from a match we played against Reigate Priory over at their ground - I believe that Sam Patel may have actually played in this match... although he was playing for the oppo back then! It's 'Golden' for Mr. 500! Taking to the field, after winning another toss, on a pleasant sunny Reigate… Continue reading Old match report – Park Hill Cricket Club v Reigate Priory (2008 season)

2012 Park Hill Tour to North Devon – ‘The Final Insult’ by Dave Symons

Thursday 21st June 2012 – North Devon My abiding memory of Thursday morning will forever be Martin locked in a staring contest with his breakfast. Unfortunately, as we looked on at the sorry sight of a man sweating at, rather than eating, his food, this battle only ever seemed to have one winner.
