*Official* CW English Meet-Up

[Matteh]

(mind you so does something close to me, and that's not likely!)

If it was in Warwick then i'd have no reason not to go

Neils bowling puts the up in Pickup

 

[luckyeddie]

Ahhh I see. Only the once, and it was my birthday. Never again though, she said it hurt too much

Best.....post....ever

 

[luckyeddie]

Regarding a CW get-together, I'm still game for the Chesterfield Clarkewatch, and a couple of others in July.

As has already been said, June is WC but I could still be tempted for the right match at the right venue (preferably a Saturday). As for August onwards - well, I've just bought a season-ticket for Derby County so as long as it doesn't clash with a Rams home match, I can make most weekend days.

Open to suggestions, folks - would prefer somewhere with a rail link so I can get bladdered.

There's an LVC match at Edgbaston against Sussex from Thurs 27th-Sun 30th July....then a tourist match v Windies A 2nd-4th August.....

Thoughts?

 

[Kweek]

im in england 22nd till 7th (and from 7th till 12th i am in England but can't get away from the tour im on )
i'd like to meet a few people, but best would be not to far from Peterborough(ie 2 hours drive max)

 

[Anna]

Birmingham's about 1hr50 on the train from Peterborough.....tis pretty central to most places

 

[Neil Pickup]

It's three from Exeter so not unviable. We've got to find somewhere we can have a net if we do meet up, though!

 

[Kweek]

deffo neil !

birmingham sounds like a deal, as there is more for me to do then meetup you guys( more meeting ! )
finalise it, and ill talk it through with my car !

West Indies A would be good if tadpole plays.

 

[Goughy]

I will probably be in the UK towards the end of Aug for a week or two and would love to meet up and have a net.

 

[Neil Pickup]

I can't make WI 'A' - working from w/c 31 July, but the LVC game would work. No Rikki, unfortunately...

Can you or Anna find somewhere for us to have a net? It's only LVC cricket, we'll all be bored by tea anyway. We can't have a meetup without one!

 

[Kweek]

I agree! we need a net... !

 

[Langeveldt]

yeah, give me a net!

Why dont we all go down to Exeter CC and then all the over 18s can go to Warehouse or Arena later on..

 

[Anna]

That, too, sounds like a plan......would involve no organisation on my part

 

[Langeveldt]

^ too small to get into warehouse..

 

[Anna]

Oi!

 

[Neil Pickup]

Right, Thursday 27 July, day one LVC v Sussex + nets (Alex arranging, so he tells me)

In:
Me
Alex
Rich
Anna
Tarick
...?

 

[Glenn Stiemens]

If I'm back in Birmingham I'll attend - I am a member at Edgbaston so can get in for free - I think I can also get one or two people in for free too.

Not sure where you will get the chance to net though - plenty of cricket clubs in the area but whether they'd let you anywhere near their nets is another matter.
