On Tour, Rebecca’s Birthday Party, Garden
I popped on tour last week to Wayfarers (Wimborne Dorset) and bumped into quite a few people from A & C HC. I went down with a team made up of players from Tring, Aylesbury, Old Georgonians and Canterbury. Mixed 7’s and we didn’t take any ladies – the team pride themselves on recruiting when…

Hockey, hot weekend and other things
We’ve had rather nice weather recently which has been rather good. It means it is full steam ahead in the garden – or wilt as the case may be… Rebecca and James with Sarah’s rather clever help replicated Catherine’s ice cream shop again this weekend. A cardboard cut out so they could sell us ice…
