How would Miss Radcox handle the pressure of her tea lady audition? More on both shortly. A late-night deluge on Friday left a few question marks over the condition of… Continue reading 03/05/25 – “Hell For Leather(head)” – Park Hill CC vs Leatherhead 4s
With the thoughts of Tudor Drive well and truly in the rear view mirror as we drove through the leafy heart of Surrey, we arrived at the pleasant surroundings of Nutfield CC.
