Tracey and Gwyn met the gang at DCF's Parkinson's Cricket. We started by bending cahirs back into shape, then had a throwing game targeted at cones and progressed to bowling at stumps in coned zones. A session of chatting, tea and biscuits finished a good morning.

We completed the course and got 9/10 in the assessment.

A few new faces and a lot of old chums at Parkinson's Cricket today. The focus was on bowling, firstly concentrating on line, and then on length. I was kept busy collecting the balls that were enthusiastically bowled, and managed only to be in the line of fire once.

Everyone enjoyed the session, especially the tea and biscuits at the end.

Tracey and Gwyn were happy to be at DCF's Monday Mates, after big delays at St Pancras the previous day. It was god to meet old and new friends there. We had a seated exercise session and an interesting quiz as well as the usual activities.

We had an extra celebration at Parkinson's Cricket today: R's big birthday. After the cricket, there was a cake and drinks, and a speech by R with interesting reminiscences.

Tracey and Gwyn were in charge today at Parkinson's Cricket. One of our regular participants died only a few days ago, and he will be much missed. Today's group had a warm up, some catching practice, some bowling and finally a cricket game. We were kept busy scooping up the balls!
