T20 Match Report: PHCC v Old Californians (Home/Away) – May 5th
Last night we had the annual T20 against Old Californians. It’s a game we feel we should, but often don’t, win. Things began well. I lost the toss and we only had 8 men, one of whom hadn’t played cricket for ten years. The oppo chose to bat first. I started with stalwarts Worrell and… Continue reading T20 Match Report: PHCC v Old Californians (Home/Away) – May 5th

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.

2012 Park Hill Tour to North Devon – ‘Part 3 1/3’ by Dave Symons
Wednesday 20th June 2012 – Hatherleigh After awaking from the personal trauma of a second night of Worrell’s snoring (seriously, it was like a grizzly bear with pertussis) there was another greasy fry up to start another morning of sluggish activity and an early secret mission for Dave Lawn.
