anyone for Bat and Trap?

[grahamb]

A nice warm evening and I wondered if any of you south London lads fancied trying your hand at that easy looking game we have seen played out in the Blacksmiths garden?

I was thinking Wednesday 23rd July. If you are interested, post away and I will sort something with the pub.

Any one is welcome, especially if you want to buy me a pint

On the basis that I can't throw, catch, kick or hit and I am rubbish at any sport involving a ball, except perhaps pool then it sounds like my kind of thing!!!

Curiously, do nan image search on Google for "bat and trap" and the 7th image to appear is the trap at the Blacksmiths. Scary.

That has lead me to here... http://www.batandtrap.org.uk/pitch.php

Could be a good laugh if we can get enough people - two teams of 8 required.

two teams of 8 - that may be optimistic, even if we offer people the option of coming dressed as morris dancers

John (Koy 23) told me there are no Jewish Morris Dancers- ask him why.

Graham.

I have searched the mag to see if there was a Morris dancer section that I might offend, I guess they belong to another club.

Think along the lines "you have to be a complete p***k to be a M.D.

John.

p.s. I'm off now, I can hear the bells approaching:shock:
