Trouble with the kids!
We all love our little darlins’ but going on tour does offer a weekend’s respite from the chaos of young kids – not so for one London Saint!

LSCC 86 all out (Mayhew, Barber, Assam – all 14)
What a day!
The 30th anniversary cricket match at Lords went better than any of us could have dared to anticipate. A nailbitiing finish with everyone contributing, a significant sum raised for charity – and the weather came good!

Two Innings’ Twenty Twenty Match for the Nelson Cup
It’s fortunate that we are playing amongst ourselves at Lords as current form leaves much to be desired as we failed to retrieve the Nelson Cup. An enjoyable day nonethleless, helped by the lack of rain – let’s hope for same on Friday!
