Not long now folks. I hope everyone is in training. Well, maybe not me as I just turn up, walk around the boundary and do a little scoring. Maybe nick some tea if there's any going.
I'll start this year off with a nice picture of a watching Darwin, our former mascot who sadly passed in the close season..
Darwin wasn’t just a pet, much more than that, a lot.
The symbol of our cricket club, our deeply loved mascot.
He’d watch the match, he took it in, and join in at a push.
You’d throw a ball, he’d loop the loop, and catch it in his mush
When cloud did loom and rain would fall, and pitch be full of puddles,
Dar-win would rise, and present himself, for consoling, loving cuddles.
But time is called, and stumps have drawn, on Darwin’s superb innings.
He travels high, to heavenly parks, for happy new beginnings.
Our dear old friend, our hearts do mourn, as boundary shots you follow.
Say hello to team mates passed, and enjoy your new tomorrow.
