I still have my "Chester Barnes-Frying Pan Shaped" Bat!


I kid you not. Cost me 50 pence in 1974 and I used it for 15 years.


Different colours each side with different pimples each side, one "slow" and one "fast".


It was easier to deceive an opponent with a "twiddle" b4 the Law was changed to have 2 different colurs to each side.


Before both sides looked the same and you can imagine the fun I had!


Sometimes I played a like-minded player and got hoist with my own petard but I played in The Central London League ( Premier) and Westminster Summer League for nearly 15 years in each League.


Great days and some fabulous battles!

    • I think if a councillor or an MP switches party then they should resign their post and wait until the next election before they can stand again.  If a constituent voted for a person because of their party affiliation rather than for the person themselves, which I suspect is the most common vote, then that vote has basically been taken from the constituent by the councillor's or MP's defection.

    • Another recommendation for Maurice. We called him on Monday to ask him to replace a leaking tap. He came the same day and did an excellent job at a reasonable price. We very much appreciated his workmanship and would highly recommend him.
    • It's not just "what he sees" as a sinking ship though, is it? It's been a sinking ship ever since Starmer took over and pushed  it further and further to the right. And I think locally many former Labour supporters who can no longer vote for what Labour now seems to stand for  will be voting green. I may of course be totally wrong and this is wishful thinking ....
