Sore Heads, Fingers & Throats After Vintage End Of Season Do!

Chilli (thanks Paul), Curry (thanks Pete), Karaoke (thanks again Paul), guitars & alcohol were the perfect recipe for another memorable end of season bash at M.C.C H.Q.

Fifty renditions of 'Nights In Miles Platting' the last a duet with the boy Nixon in a taxi heading up Lees Rd at 5.20 a.m., rendered me completely hoarse later the same day.

Debbie Fazackerley proved to her beloved that she too can stay out late, albeit with the help of a cat nap thrown in at around 3 a.m. By the way, she does look like Helen Mirren doesn't she?

Conners and Lynne drank the club dry of Stella, (no change there then) and their enforced change to Red Stripe around 2 .am. was clearly not to their liking. if the twenty half empty cans on the bar top were anything to go by!

Then there was the obligatory streak, the 'Potts' comatose, it was just like groundhog day.  I would have paid money to watch 'Sid's' drunken, meandering, walk down Mottram Rd at 6:15 a.m.

Martyn Carr & Kingsy bid us farewell at 3a.m., but these two lightweights were not to be let off lightly though as they were greeted by one very inebriated bride to be, her maid in waiting, & several very worse for wear bridesmaids on disembarking at 'Chez Carr'

Aidy as usual was the trouper behind the bar, whilst Quinny & Mike Marsden all sang their hearts out for the lads.

Thanks to the wonders of technology, 'The Moose' down under, was serenaded at numerous times throughout proceedings and I sincerely hope he drank one upside down in recognition of our drunken efforts and not inconsiderable expense.  See you next year big fella!

Shine on crazy diamond!

Read what it says on the screen Kingsy like me will you!	I was supposed to sing the female line not you!
I just can't wait to get on that microphone & show 'em how it's really done...	Seasoned pro at work
Kingsy serenades without guitar	Just stick to viciously knocking cricket balls out of the ground Martyn!
I luv you, when I say luv you, it's in a man kind of way if you know what I mean?	Bit of trapped wind from the curry & chilli Flinty?
The regulation end of season walk round the field, as usual 'Conners' has his can of Stella to hand!	Debs demonstates some silky singing skills...
A perfect duo in every way	Don't laugh geezer, you're playing over 40's tomorrow!
Really rockin' now	Quinny warming up his hand ready for action (Karaoke that is)!!!
Dooby doooo, Dooby doooo	Yeah if you look carefully it's the filling right at the back which is causin' this pain...
Great chat up lines of the centuary!	Ah told you it wouldn't be long before I prized my way to the front...
Mrs F just practising her royal wave	Just like that! No not like that, like that!
Can you sing Accapulco, or is it accapella I never quite remember?	Has someone turned the telly on it's end John?
Wat no Stella!	I suppose this will have to do!
Potts demonstates his favourite fielding stance (If easiy offended please look away now)!	Lynny can you play Hotel California?
