He absolutely cricket mad, so this is really cool for him. Will have 3/4 weekends to have a look at him. If nothing comes of it, they'll give him some pointers where he needs to improve, then we'll work on it through the winter, ready for next summer! I never got trialled anywhere! Excellent news. Glad to see a proper club has picked him up Come on you Pears! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post AVFC_Hitz Posted August 26, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted August 26, 2023 I've just bought the boy child his first bike. He was literally shaking with excitement as we took it to the till in Decathlon. He's zipping around the house on it now. Genuinely one of the father/son milestone moments I never knew would move me so much. 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidcow Posted August 28, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted August 28, 2023 Just been to search for a thread in other football and realised the SHA and Jack Grealish threads are both languishing on page 3. Brought a warm fuzzy feeling for me anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisp65 Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 I bought one of them there hedge trimmers on a telescopic pole back at the start of the summer. It was a bit unwieldy and top heavy but I persevered. Quite good at it now, getting to the point where I’m adding shape not just lopping the top off things. Can’t help feeling it could also be very useful in a zombie apocalypse. Whilst the battery lasts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s not 12ft tall zombies, no, I’m not stupid. It’s keeping them 12 ft away. If I have a strimmer / trimmer arc that’s further away then I have more time and space to react if the hedge trimmer got stuck in a particularly tough zombie skull, or was clogged with zombie brain tissue. I also wouldn’t wear the harness ‘cos if they somehow managed to grab the trimmer end they could reel me in, so I’m building up upper body strength to wield a trimmer on a pole without the harness. As soon as there is a problem, I can just let it go and move on to the next close combat weapon, a trowel, secateurs, or a dibber etc.. I’ve thought this through. #failtoplan=plantofail Edited September 3, 2023 by chrisp65 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
