Righto, been busy editing videos.. Because I am feeling very egocentric at the moment, and I want to show everyone the time I bounced Mitchell so hard his bat fell out of his hand, this video is centered on myself.. I'll put some more up later..

OK UK residents (perminant or temporary), as April dawns 'tis time to start getting our act together once more.

What I want from you over the course of the next week or two is...

Are you interested in a meetup any time in the next 5 months?
Name dates that wouldn't be do-able for you in that time (doesn't have to be exact - can be a week here, a day there, a certain day of the week in X month).
Location and potential travel methods (driving own car, hopeful for lift, location would like lift from, train, train station, etc.).

So far everything major that's been done has been Edgbaston, the place has served us admirably and there's no reason it shouldn't do so again. There's several very nice places you can play a game, and you can even pretend to watch a game for a while if that takes the fancy.

I'm in the UK for about a month starting today.. Then back to SA, and also will be in the USA some time this year too.. Would be cool to meet some of our USA members.. I'll be based in Anaheim, California

Haha good video. The look on Pickup's face after you floored Mitchell is priceless.

Haha, given your rant at British cities in OT a few weeks back, you'll want to burn LA within a week. I'd be happy to lend a hand though.

How's things going for you Rich? Last concrete thing I can remember was you leaving Uni in SA - what exactly are you up to now? Keeping the photography going?

Personally, I reckon bowling a bouncer to someone who clearly isn't capable of dealing with them is a pretty gutless option. But a good ball, none the less.

It's been pretty manic to be honest.. Ended up having a right debacle with my girlfriend, then my parents, and I ended up dropping out of said university.. Was arbing around with life until a few days ago when I got offered a job to work for the biggest surfing magazine in the world as a photographer.. Once my visa comes through I'll be jetting off all over the show, so yeah a bit of a turnaround and I can't wait :happy: Got my first cricket match for a year on Saturday.. Am nipping between the UK and SA again, because I need to go to London for the visa interview.. Off to bed now because I got very drunk on the plane

Naah that's the wrong ball. I was stood up for the one you're thinking of. That one i've gone to play it and then it's got up more than it ever would on any pitch i've played on, ducked, dropped the bat in the haste.

Needs to show more of you facing someone that isn't Anna or Pickup.

Hey don't get all up in my face on both facebook and cricketweb.. Truth be told there isn't much footage of me facing you.. So pipe down

Saw facebook first then this. Was the wicket filmed? No longer have to count the waterbottle wicket now.

No the wicket was not filmed.. Waterbottle wicket was probably the worst thing thats ever happened to anyone.. Absolute travesty of justice.. Anyone can put a water bottle out to square leg and hit it
