Yeah, you're in, out of respect for your good lady. Where's she from?

We lost our title on the last game of the last season! Keep up Badger, said Mole! lol
 

Yorkshire CCC 2017

How about those who qualify by working through the local ladies thanks to online dating and residency?

Although the dating highlight was away in Glamorgan!
 

Yorkshire CCC 2017

Born in Harrow but used to work at Headingley, parked the players cars and once drove Darren Lehmann to Heathrow .Does that count?.

Oi you, get your filthy hands off my sisters! Does that mean you abducted one and dragged her all the way to Wales? Or have you started to wreak havoc amongst the poor women folk of that principality too? You do earn some credit, though, for having the good sense to relocate to a decent area. ;)

Did you enjoy the LR Roses Match?

Qualification in recognition of services rendered and for having a decent GPG alias. I salute you, sir.

An unexpected Tinder match when away on business this time last year. Let's just say a brief encounter that isn't appropriate for further discussion here!

Splutter. Micky Mouse trophy.

Good lass. Don't know West Ardsley so well, but have played cricket at East Ardsley a number of times. Famous for rhubarb, as I'm sure you are aware. I have relatives in Morley and Oulton (not far away). From Dewsbury myself.

Rhubarb triangle I believe?? We manage a visit up once a year......one of the more memorable recently was when we went up to a nephew's wedding......held in a Working Men's Club in Beeston!!!:eek:
The DJ for the disco kept getting interference from the local taxi company and the 'buffet' included open 'Kraft Singles' sandwiches and ASDA Smart Price coleslaw...... served in it's original container!!! lol

Wasn't that Barry Manilow?

Oi, snob, that's a posh wedding, that is. It's usually Lidl these days. I'm feeling proper nostalgic now. lol

Looks impressive, and glad it meets with your approval. We house-sit for my cousin in Burley Woodhead every summer when he and his wife go on holiday. Always drop them at the airport, but have never in my life gone inside. They have definitely got the wrong end of the Yorkshire stick with their Yorkshire teacakes though. ;)

I do borne in MIDDLESEX yes I know it doesn't officially exist, but I agree with Russel Grant on this

I'm fairly sure I live in Middlesex Del?? Hoping it's real or I have an existential crisis on my hands.

I stayed in a hotel in Leeds at the same time as the Pakistan Test Team a few years ago, and saw them going down the stairs. Does that qualify me for guest membership?
 

Yorkshire CCC 2017

I'm a tad confused. Surely the whole point of a club lounge is to quaff as much Sauvignon Blanc as humanely possible in two and a half hours?

Alas, my little blue pill brings me out in dreadful spots and gives me the trots if I overdo the booze.

This is beginning to stretch my credibility a little. Ownership of a Yorkshire terrier or a whippet, fair enough. But temporary residence in a Leeds hotel? And the Pakistan cricket thing is either a red herring or simply name-dropping. They've mainly continued downhill since then too, by the way.

Oh, feck it, you're all in. If Ireland and Scotland can do it, why can't I? The more the merrier.

Thanks. At least it partly makes up for the fact that I'm still waiting to hear if I can join the Cubs in Hounslow. After 60 years I'm doubtful. :(

lol That's so sad. I know how you feel. I've been waiting for weeks to hear from the Civil Service about a job application. Maybe we could organise a camp fire for you, and all sit around, singing ging gang gooly gooly wotsit?
 

Yorkshire CCC 2017

Good guys finish with 300-6. Fantastic from 95-4 at halfway. Ballance 152 not out.
 

Yorkshire CCC 2017

Victory by 164 runs.

White Rose in full bloom.
 

Yorkshire CCC 2017

Excellent progress so far, tempered only by the fact that some smartarse moderator has changed my perfectly good thread title.

You might say smartarse, I would call it petty minded.
 

Yorkshire CCC 2017

Yorkshire to bat. Don't know who won toss, but I expect a little early atmospheric assistance for bowlers.
 

Yorkshire CCC 2017

Looks like we've included a few first teamers today. Don't want to jinx them but sounds like Root and Bairstow might be in the mood today.
 

Yorkshire CCC 2017

Yeah. I jinxed them. Bairstow gone. Silence from me for a while.
 

Yorkshire CCC 2017

157-5
 

Yorkshire CCC 2017

265-6. Bresnan gone. Great stuff from him and Waite (100 partnership).
 

Yorkshire CCC 2017

Finish 281-8. Good effort from where they were, and a decent total. No idea what par score would be - don't know conditions.
 

Yorkshire CCC 2017

Lost by 5 wickets.

Yeah, comfortable win for Warwickshire. I'm guessing it was a good toss to win, but I could easily be talking bollo as I don't know who won the toss. Worcester back on top.

Yorkshire won the toss and decided to bat, according to the BBC.

Yes, I'm not the world's best pundit, as you can see. Alternatively, Gary Ballance is not the world's most judicious captain?! ;) :blush
 

Yorkshire CCC 2017

Victory over Leicester today, but Worcester also win, so have to settle for second spot.

I think this means quarter final v Surrey. If so, bring it on pronto please!!

... onto t' classico.... The White Rose meets The Black Pudding.... day 1....

Jimmy Anderson breaks down in his 6th over - "tight groin". Good news and bad, I suppose! Yorkshire also limping a bit, at 251-6 at close (96 overs).
