Where's skip???

This picture I spotted in a recent Daily Telegraph it would appear that skip has been arrested and is in Guantanamo Bay detention centre.

I am starting a petition for his early release (just before next season).

Marathon man

Dave Warrick is keen to be selected again next year so he has decided that regular running will keep him fit during the winter months.

One ambition is to complete a marathon, now the exact marathon is 26 miles 385 yards, so Dave has a circular route measured out at Westhill exactly 385 yards long. He runs one lap daily, asked why, he replied that when marathon running, surely those last few yards would be the most difficult.

Blobby's in love

Mr Blobby visited Brading recently and fell in love with Steve's granddaughter Lucy.

The close season.

I imagine all the retired EVERGREENS players are filling their time with their various hobbies. John Grace tells me he is writing an informative book entitled

"The onset of dimentia",

Cynthia says he's started it 7 times on his lap top but cannot find it when he wants to continue ~ oh dear.

-----ooooo00000ooooo-----

I am reading a great book entitled

"Jersey, a close-knit community",

soon to be followed by

"Cliff walking on the Isle of Wight" by Eileen Dover.
