Sellsy's Sunday Supplement

So I was playing golf on cricket tour, and one of my tee shots hit the chapel roof, bounced off and landed four yards away from the pin, so glad I walked in that pile of dog doings earlier!!!

Just got back from a great cricket tour to Torquay, was due to play two games, but unfortunately the weather intervened, and we only managed a game against Budleigh (very posh place) Salterton, who managed to scrape home by a couple of wickets! Nice club house, cheap booze, plenty of tea and a massive TV to watch England play against Ireland.

So apart from the one game of cricket, what else happened on tour, well I have the fines book next to me, will give you a few random miss-doings, but no names:

  • Cheating at golf, told his playing partner the wrong hole to aim for!
  • Unable to toss properly
  • Falling asleep in the pub
  • Batting like a Charlie
  • Waiting for a 12 year old girl to come out of the changing room
  • Hitting a four through the slips, the went gardening to make it look like a good shot
  • For snitching on left handed drinkers
  • Standing in the nude in public and showing his **** in front of two OAP’s
  • Having the wrong meal
  • Constant texting and face-booking his girlfriend Ellie
  • Second ball duck, first duck on tour, only duck on tour
  • Being beige
  • Three days late and then taking photos of someone on the toilet

I could go on, but as I said, these are just random fines I literally picked out of the little red book.

Thank you to every tourist who made it a wonderful tour, I am sure more things will come out of the woodwork over the next few weeks / months etc. Would also like to thank Ashley for organizing the tour, great organizer, where to next year? Anybody have any suggestion?

The fines collected, a grand sum of £95.45 (don’t know where the odd 5p came from), will go to a worthy charity, would just like to thank Jack, Sorty and Mikey for contributing 75% of the fine money.

So only one person guessed who the secret snitch was, not even his room mate guessed it was Sorty, done a grand job, was his great chance to get his own back, however for his constant moaning, pointing and wanting a KFC, think it may of back fired on him, oh well, he may learn, but I doubt it.

What a roller-coaster ride that T20 finals day was on Saturday, who would of predicted that both semi-finals would end up in a one-over eliminator, apparently one bookie gave odds of 10,000-1 that it would happen, I’m no so sure they will give these odds again.

It was such a disappointment that Somerset were runners-up for the third season in a row, I can barely type these words knowing that we are the best side in the country in the shorten version of the game and lose out in the final once more. You’ve done us proud Somerset; let’s go and win the CB40 and win the last three County Championship games to make it a wonderful season.

The only good thing which has come of The Set losing in the final is that I did back them at the start of the season each-way to win all three competitions and by reaching the final yesterday I start to earn some monies from William Hill. Unfortunately my planned holiday to Barbados will have to go on hold for the time being; it is now either Benidorm or Bognor now!

Right, it is 15.57, time for my Sunday roast; normal service will be resumed next week (depending on my hangover!)
