(and MIMCC lose to Conwy 2nds) Editor’s note: See if you can spot links in this article to a famous band from the skipper’s teenage years.. Some of our younger readers (under 50) will need assistance from their grandparents to work it out. Those historians amongst you will know that the 18th June is the anniversary… Continue reading Will Webster gets a 50 after 12 years of trying, the skipper remembers his time in a super group and drinks way too much Valpolicella

A Windy Day, by Andrew Meakin
Pwllheli 2nds 64 all out, MIMCC 220 for 7. 15 points in the bag. Ten of us made it to Pwllheli, where unlike in sheltered Flintshire, a near gale was blowing in.

Mr Happy, Mr Bump and Mr Sneeze (plus a few others) win at Connahs Quay

MIMCC v Pontblyddyn 2nds -Skipper’s Match Report
A pretty ground with character is Pontblyddyn and we gathered for our now customary Noonday start. Abs made a declaration of intent by being not the last, nor even second last to turn up – giving it plenty of time! Pont sat top of the league and we expected a fairly unforgiving result. We lost… Continue reading MIMCC v Pontblyddyn 2nds -Skipper’s Match Report
