The lad Tolley will also be joining us now.
Late last week I had some info from our dutch chum who thinks he has got the first game arranged for Thursday evening against a club called ‘HC Pinohke’. I’ve e-mailed the contact he provided to confirm everything.
He also sent a number of other e-mail addresses and pretty soon after I contacted them, a club called ‘Amsterdam Bears’ contacted me to say they would also like to play us on either the Friday evening or Saturday afternnon – they are trying to sort out a pitch.
So it all looks a bit more definite. So definite in fact that I’ve booked my flights!!! Leave Mcr on 28th May Wed am and returning on Sun 1st with KLM. I think Tolley’s booked as well.
TIME FOR YOU LOT TO GET SORTED. Can you send a cheque to Nick for £50 per head for the hotel and you may as well get flights sorted as well
I’ll confirm the games in due course, but I need the deposits to sort out a hotel!!
CheersCol

Just an update – this is the latest team news. Stokesy can’t make it … but Kelly Hill can. So no change in speed and agility there. Cuey has also said she intends to bring her plimsoles. So we’re looking at 12/13 players confirmed I’m going to try and get maybe one more from Timperley vets tournament this coming Sunday … but if anyone knows of anyone … that’s always better. G Stoneley D McGuire D Pittaway J Wilks O Peck P Nicholson A Luther J Donnolly N Burnett A Murphy R Elson K Hill H Cue D Brown As for the matches … although I’ve seen a few e-mails in dutch – perhaps not surprisingly I know nothing of their content. I have contacted Willern to ask him to get a final date and time of the games, but I am still working on Thursday evening and Saturday afternoon. Now, other halves … I need to know if you’ll be accompanied? As soon as I get confirmation of the games, I will confirm and you can get on and book the flight – but I intend to get on and book the hotel. I will need a deposit and so I’d be obliged if you’d arrange for £50 to get to the aardvark bank account via Nick Burnett ASAP Account Name NIB / AVKS acct Bank Barclays, Northwich Sort Code 20-24-09 Branch 20510904 Alternatively bung a cheque in the post to Nick Burnett at No 1 Chapel Street, Moulton, Northwich, Cheshire, CW9 8PN. Also … it would help Nick and I keep account if, as you do this, you either let either/or/both of us know. Also, if you find you can’t make the tour … let me know as I’ll work on the premise that everyone who has said they are in … are in. Hopefully will be in touch very soon with definite info about the games. Col 07990 971190

We are now up to 11 (not including wives and appendages) after the addition of John Donnolly and a chap called Andrew Murphy, a sprightly 38 year old who joined us this year and who will do just fine.
Will be in touch as numbers are finalised.
