Free Beer at The Crispin !

Yes- another stunning victory in the beer leg for our heroic team. This is the first time I have witnessed the opposition buying us drinks half way through the leg, such is our reputation- or is it that they needed the extra time to make Mark's double skinny latte ? Of the other 3 legs played, the first was a glorious victory, the second featured a 6 from their last player, and the third was a cock up. Also of note was the "interesting" after match food, for which a straw would have been handy. Finally congrats to Greene King for not Fu**ing up St Austell Tribute-yet.

Horse & Harrow beaten....

Revenge is sweet, with a comfortable victory against our local rivals. First leg was sealed with great throwing from the Captain, the second secured by Dave & Tim (who jointly top scored on the night with 5 each) and although the third was an aberration, we bounced back strongly to nail the beer leg easily. So the practice is starting to pay off...............

Plough Buried &Thieving Scousers Stuffed......

Another famous victory for the Bear, on a bad night for Scousers. Consistent scoring from all the team, meant an unassailable lead after 2 legs. The 3rd leg slipped out of our clutches, but superiority was restored in the Beer/Latte leg, as several milky coffees were despatched by Mark. Capt Slade pronounced himself satisfied and left early, to show his wife a good husband, then returned to the pub, when she wasn't interested.

Cross Keys

An unsatisfactory loss to the Cross Keys, with a dodgy anorexic doll and some iffy calls, not that we're bad sports of course. A win in the last leg & the beer leg salvaged something, and yet again Dave starred with the sticks, scoring 6. A few double blobs from Fergie, Pete, Pete & Tony didn't help the cause, but on returning to The Bear, the village pixie was on hand to make everyone feel better, when they realised how lucky they were, not to be him !

Better luck next week v The Plough at home

Bear wears the Crown

Not the weather for cricket, but it didn't deter the hardy Aunt Sally crew. A comfortable 4-2 home victory against The Crown was achieved with minimal fuss. Initial worries that Dave Latimer had overshortened the pitch to suit his feeble throwing technique, were wide of the mark (like his aim), and a 30' throw was paced out by our independant adjudicator Molly. Heavy scoring from Darts Dave & Multi Talented Tim, was nearly matched by Steve & Jon, to ensure one of our more consistent team performances. Ben was the runt of the litter tonight with a 2 (which was considered a good score last year !)- never mind son !
Beer leg won too, so a good night.
We have started giving our opposition teams a "good blokes" rating, and I'm pleased to say The Crown scored quite highly, with only a few things nicked. 7/10- well done !
