Cricket - A great first event. Well Done!
Thank you to all BE regulars who came to the event yesterday - Chris, Sam et al, Mike and others.
There were a few hiccups which we will learn from - ie don't trust a 'mate' to bring the bouncy castle as he's unlikely to show up - but on the whole it was a success.
It was well attended with around 70 people who were there for the whole event whilst there several more who came and went.
Thanks to Jerry, Debbie, Andy, Jackie, Andrew, Toby, John, Brent, Euro Supplies (not an ad JDR, I promise ), María José, Cristo, Brian, Villablanca council, Miguel, Carmelo, Enrique - if I've missed anyone, I apologise - without you all, the day would not have been a success
Here's to the next one in July??????
Oh......Brent's team (with a couple of Aussie ringers) won with a total of 151 for 4 to Jerry's 131 all out.
Thanks to everyone

It was a good afternoon and we are looking forward to the next one
Did you manage to finish the barrel of beer off?

But beer, BBQ and watching people make arses of themselvs is fun - the cricket was simply a by-product.
Anyway, a photo. This one is of cricket virgen Vicente Nieves who at his first ever time at the crease managed a creditable 45 runs!!!

Hola Fortaleza!
Looks like you had good weather for the event, and a good time had by all. Will this be a regular event?
Regards,
Carol

We would just like to practice to get a bit better so that we can then play other teams nearby.
Might do a rounders game next as some people on Saturday suggested they'd like to take part
