Partners V KLP [36-10]


It will sadden many of you to learn that I have to share my bus in the morning with some of the nastiest scum that North London has to offer (obviously Spurs fans). The type of people that wear their fake Gucci jackets inside out because more logos show that way. They left some interesting graffiti the other day - "Is you bashy n ting?". I could work out the 'n ting' bit, but 'bashy'? Were they asking for a fight? A quick Google later led me to this website explaining Jamaican slang. You may ask why white kids from Islington are speaking Jamaican slang, but that is another story (see Ali G). Bashy means remarkable or wonderful. What a great word, mainly because it's got the word 'bash' in there.

We were bashy! We won 36-10. The only way to start to a season.

As a new member to the renowed Partner & Fuel team, I can safely say its good to be part of a winning team for once!

There are some moments of magic worth recounting.

Tim (The Slugger aka Crusty the Clown) Cayless for his phenomenal, space orbiting hits! (Jon G you've got something to live up to now!)

Excellent bowling by Jon B - Never have I seen such precision!

Pau - has a swing on him that Babe Ruth would be jealous of!

A roundof applause also for Dan B - who after scoring his first home run and announcing it so to the team, he then followed it with a second!

An excellent catch in the outfield by Chris and an awesome slide (slightly worried where your head ended up)

A also finally managed to slide into home base. I could of just trotted safely home, but no, the full Freddy Mercury at Live Aid down on both knees shouting, "Bismillah, no, she will not let me go".

Also a terrific standard of fielding and batting from Bethan, Jess , Becs and Ethne - this seasons going to Bashy with biaatches like these in the team!

Word to your mother!

Top start lads although I've never heard of KLP so they must be rubbish.

I also gather that Amy was a bit of a star but she's clearly too modest to tell anyone.

And don't forget Jess' incredibly cheeky base stealing antics. Maybe we should all watch and learn!
