30 minutes before kick off and hailstones the size of golf balls were crashing down, the lightning had more forks than a wedding cutlery set and the softie softball players had called off their game.
Step forward ten hardy footballers. Their courage paid off as sure enough the heavens calmed and a game that lasted practically 2 hours ensued!
Nobody wanted to finish, but at 9pm eventually a halt was called.
Given the slippery conditions, the skills on display were startling.
Rob, Tim, Ed, Paul O'C and Ben S made telling runs, moved the ball around with ease and displayed more energy that a Duracell battery on speed; but their efforts were all to no avail.
You could have built the best bonfire in Britain, given how Luke, Lionel, and Chris were on fire, but in spite of their assured performances it was their colleague Paul C, who wins man of the match thanks to his touch, his speed, and his distribution.
Another cracking game!
