Village Award No. 7 - Garry Williams

Perkins Presentation Evening

As Gaz was giving his big drunken good byes to everyone it was apparant he was a little unstable on his feet!! So.... after hugging and Kissing everyone good night he heads for the exit.. As you will remember, the seating/table plans was displayed on a very large mirror on an eisle..As Gaz was walking towards the exit, his body shape and weight changed and like a salmon in the sea, he turned at near right angles and stumbled into the mirror. The effect was like the Matrix, as everyone seemed to stop and watch as the mirror cam crashing down,and smashed into many many pieces...As the glass settled all around him, Gaz took one step back and said "Oops, think I best go..see you later everyone"

Village Award No. 5 - Shane Gwilt & Jack Shantry

Yes, he's done it again... Shane Gwilt has picked up the Village award along with a worthy contribution from Jack Shantry

Shane decided that after the match on Saturday, he was going to go night fishing along with Jack and Adam Shantry. Brian Shantry decided to show Shane how to setup his rod and line and to show him how to cast using a swim feeder. After a couple of goes at casting onto the pitch while the oppositon was fielding !!, the next task Brian set was to aim for a target and to try and cast as close as possible to it. Shane decides to cast from the pavillion patio to the flag next to the site screen (about 20m). Unfortunately Shane misses the flag and ends up casting straight into the tree and consequently cannot reel the line back in as it's snagged..... Village Part 1

Now how does Jack Shantry fit into this :)

Well... both Shane and Jack are trying to un-snag the swimfeeder and line from the tree in between overs but to no avail.

So Jack goes climbimg up the tree to find out where the line is caught. After 5 minutes of trying to find it, Jack decides to give up and come back down - only for the pair of them to realise that Jack had climbed up the wrong tree !!!!!!

Village Award No. 4 - Graham Jones

I got injured playing a midweek game and missed the vital game against Wroxeter.

What's more, I slipped on a greasy pitch eventhough it's been the hottest july since 1874 (according to Razz)

Looks like I'm going to be out for quite a few weeks... and it kills me even more to watch knowing that I could be playing

Village Award No. 3 - Chris Speake

The third in our series of Village efforts goes to a very worthy cause.......

Mr Chris Speake of Dumbsville Street picks up the prestigious award by actually managing to get sunstroke on Barmouth Beach !!!

Not only was the master drinker unable to finish two pints without having to go and be sick in the toilets... he had to have two days off work.

To top it off he got completely sunburnt on his back and had to spend the two days in bed, lying on his front !!

Speaky - it has to be said .............

Village Award No. 2 - Mal Serplet

Well, well, well Malcolm .... what have we here ??

This was the normal state our Aussie seemed to get into on a Saturday night... ha ha ! Impersonating Bill from the Flower Pot men tv show !!! Explain this one back home Mal !!!!! Atleast you got a lampshade to match the colour of your shirt !!!

Mal.... you look total "...Village"

Village Award No. 1- Shane Gwilt

Congratulations to Shane Gwilt who wins this new award the first.

Shane, our specialist no.10 batsman (so he says) had the great honour of opening the batting against Shifnal's pace attack. He relished the challenge and played a glorious leave shot first ball up, only to see his wicket cartwheeling towards the wicket keeper - Golden duck !!

We had obviously made a great mistake. So the final match he was back in his usual batting position of number 10.

Unfortunately Shane was run out without facing a delivery - so does that constitute a Golden duck ???

Well done Shane.... things can only get better !!!!
