If there's any problem with players let me know and we might be able to help.


We had our first game of the season yesterday. The standard of play wasn't exactly high but we had a great laugh.


Cricket, sun and booze - what could be better apart from a Girls Aloud sex party?

I'm in, although playing a gig on the 17th and it's going to be a late one (We're playing til gone 1am, and won't be able to get our stuff out til it all finishes), so like David I may be a touch groggy on the 18th...


A coule of the CPT boys will be up for it, so I'll see who is in... I'll check with Dems, hopefully his team isn't playing that day... It would be a shame to lose him, as he basically took most of our wickets last year.

Oh, actually, bad news on the cake front.

I have to work on the 18th and can't get anyone to swap with me (apparently "but the hopelessly disorganised, 8-man, cricket team from my local internet forum are playing against some people from the local press and I promised to bake cakes" doesn't impress when asking people to give up their weekend off!) Sorry :(


Some slightly better news - I have managed to get a swap for the weekend that Keef's band is playing at the Plough (not that it has anything to do with this thread). I don't know, this pesky career does get in the way of a good social life.

How bad are you guys? I could try to persuade Mr. Moos to play - don't think he's ever played cricket before so could be giggle-worthy?


Just to add to the non-contribution from the Moos household I also can't bake cakes, but am more than capable of buying nice food and bringing it along.

Hurrah!!! Far important than stupid cricket, should be a fab night... Think The Plough is going to be rather full!

Moos, we're a random mish-mash of talent and lack thereof, but it's all about running about for a laugh rather than fierce competition. If Mr Moos os willing to give it a go he's more than welcome.

Throwing, catching and hitting a ball with a funny shaped stick can't be that hard can it?

Well, if that guy you had last year who wore the footie shirt is playing I might consider a helmet - he nearly took my head off at one point.


We played on Saturday for the first time this year and it was awesome. Sod the cricket, it's all about the tea. My girfriend made some amazing cakes and one guy even chipped in with some home made pork pies. Genius.


Have a look at the report in the news section of our website www.krcsc.co.uk.

      Assistance Dogs - Autism: any experiences?

      By JMK · Posted

      https://www.assistancedogs.org.uk/information-hub/assistance-dogs-emotional-support-dogs-and-therapy-dogs/   hello   i’d be interested to understand if anyone.has experience of Assistance Dogs especially for autistic children of different ages for emotional support and therapy   There was a prior thread on this topic on EDF 10 hrs ago but it had limited experiences and there was a (claimed) change in UK legislation in 2019. Whilst the industry appears unregulated/unlicensed, there are several providers (approx 15, perhaps more) who claim to have fully trained dogs or say that they can help families to train a puppy/young dog over the 18-24 months.  The latter obviously comes with a need for strong commitment to the challenge. Costs for a fully trained assistance dog are quoted at £13-15k albeit they claim £23k total cost to train the dog. On the one hand, this could potentially be a useful solution for some families if such a dog was truly trained as their websites claim and such a dog was accepted in public places and schools etc… On the other hand, I don’t think that I’ve ever seen an assistance dog of this type or in this context (only for a blind or partially sighted person) and hence a real risk of fraud or exploitation! The SEN challenge for families coupled with limited resources in schools or from local authorities or the NHS as well as the extremely challenging experience of many families with schools offering little or no support or making the situation worse leaves a big risk of lots of different types of fraud and or exploitation in this area.

      Missing Cat

      By jeffersjd · Posted

      Hi there  We live on Woodwarde Road backing on to Alleyns Top Field.  Our cat Gigi has gone missing — it’s been about 24 hours now. She is a cream Bengal. Could you please check sheds, garages, or anywhere she might have got stuck please? And if you could keep an eye out or share on any local groups/forums, we’d really appreciate it. Photo attached.   Thanks so much! My name is Jeff on 07956 910068.
