7/06/04 - Mid-Season Tour 

 

The club will be embarking on a mid-season cricket tour to Lourdes.  The miracles we will be hoping to witness are; Rob Uphill playing a defensive shot with a straight bat, Andy and Phil Jolly managing not to argue with each other for a whole 15 minute period and of course we will be praying for a league victory for the 1st or 2nd team.

Speak to Brian from Tennant Travel for a good deal and take the hassle out of making travel arrangements.  Note: holiday bookings may not actually take place, NO refunds under any circumstances.  Tennant Travel - "We won't take you where you want to go" (and we will probably bugger off to Cyprus without telling anyone)
