Anyway, I can beat that. When I was 16, I batted higher in the order than Nasser Hussain in the Ilford Cricket Club under 16 team. I was at No.6 and he was at 8 or 9. At the time he was only a 5ft 0 inch 15-year-old leg spinner that couldn't be bothered about batting as his bowling was prodigious.
Can we, hence forth, call you Batty man?
And, did you bat for any other team?

I was actually a bowler that was a 'swashbuckling' middle-order batsman (aka good slogger). I ended up an opening batsmen and 'specialist' first slip (aka lazy fucker) which is much less bother than huffing and puffing up to the crease for 15 overs. Happy days.

Unless he’s related to James Parkinson, the apothecary who published symptoms of the disease in 1817, it’s not him.
Oh , thank you for your reply . Could you pass this on to mr. Roberson or ? Mark something .
I can not reply to private email unless he send here : [email protected] .
Thanx ..

He was a pom, not a convict! :hattip:
Ah , I get it , you didn’t write the silent “e “
When I hear the word I picture the E on the end , not how you write it as it sounds .

It’s hard to read your straight lines with that silly smile ..

Got any never before seen photos of paddlefoot ?
