Great 30th anniversary tour supported by splendid blistering heat !! Key Nomads performers A Gregory scoring 167 runs in 5 games with an average of 33.4, Ollie Weeks aged 11 at Coton Hall 5 for 21 in 5 overs !!,Russell Mann scoring 101 runs at an average of 50.5,Mr Andrew Stokes - ,blasting a quick fire 39 on Friday as it was all to easy for him and wanted to get back for Fish and Chips on the lawn!

Must mention my brother great input and organisation for making it as smooth and succesful as it was

All finished off with a wonderful Saturday afternoon drinking and eating ourselves silly in the rain whilst playing the infamous Cae Ned Trios which includes Wives,lovers,mothers,sons and daughters.
