As the sun rises over the Quantocks the Mount challenge John Sherwin and his Holford men on Sunday 23rd July to open our tour.
We have a few omissions and a few additions in the shape of Charlie Lockhart, Laurence Ives of Rankins and Alex Hatton of Westcliff, all of whom we welcome. Mark Smith will be with us for the beer, but owing to injury his playing may be limited – but the right arm is OK!!
As you know Terence Hair passed away in June. We shall all miss his contribution to the cricket in the past, and more recently his photographic skills, and we shall treasure his memory.
Games all start at 2.30p.m., except for Kilve which is 1.00 p.m to enable us to attend the final presentation dinner at the Windmill at 8.00p.m. Please arrive at games at least half ab hour before the start. The match fees are £10 per game, £5 for juniors, to cover teas, ground, balls and admin, payable please to DT. We hope tourists and players will contribute £10 to Bill and Toby to help defray costs of the party on Tuesday evening at ‘The House’ – see Bill.
Light lunch can be taken at the Plough, opposite the ground prior to the Holford game on Sunday. Tourists can check in at the Windmill or B&B before or after the Holford game. There is a ‘running’ barbecue on Thursday at Kilve on a ‘pay as you go’ basis.
The terms are not written in stone and may be changed due to injury or personal reasons.
We are held in high esteem by our Somerset friends, so let us maintain the happy atmosphere and play to win but always enjoy the games.

Unfortunately neither team has been able to get close to raising XI and we’ve therefore taken a joint view to cancel the game this Sunday.
