Walsden Cricket Club have previously had successful junior teams with several going onto district and county age group honours, however in recent years a drop in numbers hit the club and they were struggling to fulfil their junior fixtures.
A decision was made to start from the bottom and the invested in a School 2 Club program at the start of the 2014 season. This instantly led to a sharp rise in the number of juniors attending their weekly training sessions.
By 2015 WCC entered a brand new under 9s team, which brought with it parents who have taken on an active role at the club with fundraising, coaching and organisation. The under 9s have improved so much to the point they have been crowned Pennine League Champions in 2016!
"During 2014 we invested in the Cricket Asylum's School 2 Club project. The project led to us gaining many new playing juniors, and many more who come practising. We now have a very strong number of under 9s and under 11s, which will benefit the older age groups and senior cricket over the coming years. The local schools are now much more active with Cricket so this is securing a steady stream of new players each year."
Ken Gale, Walsden CC

Another couple of logistics taken care of today. The oncology nurse suggested that I get my teeth cleaned before I start the chemo. When you get your teeth cleaned they kick up some bacteria in your mouth and when your WBCs are getting their ass kicked by the chemo you'd like to avoid any chance of bacteria getting a foothold in your mouth or elsewhere in your body.
So got the teeth cleaned, gums and teeth are fine. One less thing to worry about for the next six months!
Next step - getting the dark locks trimmed down so that if I do start losing my hair it won't be too gross or traumatic. The K-man was my wing man on this outing and also got his mane trimmed down - here's the current look post haircut:

Day 8 - Dawn in the UK
My day 8 and my very first floating and onion rings. Feel like I am now in the deep end, just keeping my head up (but learning at the same time). I have no idea as to what we are making other than those recently being guessed.

Life outside is like life inside prison, says freed student activist
national July 11, 2015 01:00
By The Nation
4,468 Viewed
Academics and supporters of the 14 anti-coup student activists, who were released from detention on Wednesday, held a traditional blessing ceremony at Thammasat University late Friday afternoon.
During the ceremony, Rangsiman Rome and Jatupat Boonpataraksa, who are among the 14 members of New Democracy Movement (NDM) previously detained, reiterated that they will continue fighting through peaceful means.
"We did not win this time, but we'll keep fighting," Rangsiman said.
Jatupat, meanwhile, compared life outside to living inside prision.
"Whether it's inside or outside [prison], we have no freedom," the young activist, who is studying law at Khon Kaen University, said. Jatupat added that NDM would continue questioning the government and their policies, and work on trying to break the bipartisan politics of the Kingdom, where people are perceived through the colour of their political affiliation.
Thammasat University anthropologist Prajak Kongkirati, who was at the ceremony, said society should pay attention to the NDM core values such as non-violence and democracy.
Sudsanguan Suthisorn, an expert in criminal justice administration, said: "I'm proud of this group of students as they remain firmly committed to realising their ideology. They stand for what is right." She added that the ruling-National Council for Peace and Order should understand that people want an elected government and freedom.
Army Chief of Staff General Chatchalerm Chalermsukh denies that the National Council for Peace and Order (NCPO) is threatening parents of the 14 anti-coup students, saying the NCPO is not a mafia organization. He said soldiers have merely been sent to talk with the parents to explain why their children were arrested and detained and that no order was given to forbid anyone from airing differing political opinion.
"Soldiers cannot threaten anyone because if such action was taken then it won't be different from goons or mafia. Soldiers who hold weapons cannot threaten anyone and if it is found that soldiers dispatched were speaking impolitely, please send a [video] clip or evidence to the Army immediately and I shall investigate it myself. I have never given such order," insisted Chatchalerm.
Chatchalerm, who is also deputy secretary general of the NCPO added that he understand that people have differing political opinion but the country needs to maintain a climate of peace and reconciliation.

Fashion for the Older Woman
Before I went I shaved my legs and under my arms, something I tend not to do as often as I should. Anyway, there I was clean shaven and wearing a skirt and top, something else I tend not to wear very often, usually I'm in trousers. I walked in and the assistant asked if she could help me. I told her I was looking for a day dress. She immediately said that they don't stock day dresses. There I was, willing to pay about £75 for a decent dress and feeling terribly disappointed. "Sorry" she said and walked into her office/stock room.
I was so certain I would get a dress easily. Aren't they all the fashion this year?
So, what did I do? I visited Bonmarche. Now this shop is considered cheap. I looked up the French interpretation of Marche (sorry, can't put the accent on the e with the computer) and it means cheap or market. But who cares, I actually got a dress. In fact I got two dresses and a little cardi thing…
And it fits!!! The cardi with the above dress was from Sainsbury's.
This is the other dress and cardi, both from Bonmarche
It has got shiny bits on it but the aren't too noticeable. And wearing the cardi hides the fact that it is a strappy dress, which I don't like.
Altogether I spent just over my £75 for two dresses and two cardis.
Why is it so hard to find normal dresses? Most of them look as though they are party dresses, or sun dresses. I don't want to walk around looking like a tart that's past its sell by date. I want to look neat and tidy and feminine. I used to make all my own clothes but these days I want to be able to buy ready made. I do find that dresses tend to be too short (above the knee) or too long (right down to the ankles). They are also too frilly, I want to look feminine not tarty. Most dresses don't have nice little sleeves, a must in my opinion as I get older. They are too low, I really do not like to see t**s on display, especially older womens'. I could understand not finding anything if I was grossly overweight, but I'm a standard size 14 (UK) and sometimes a 12. I also still have a waist.

Not impressed at all by that customer service! Do like the dresses though and just think, a bargain!

Hi Ann, I certainly would not support that shop again what bad manners not to mention customer service!
I find the same problem, chain stores seem to cater for the younger age group who shop every week for disposable fashion!
I love both of your outfits, I like a cap sleeve or short cardi like yours too for the same reasons.
- 30 May 2011 at 22:57
"I HATE SHOPPING"...you and me both Ann. Actually I've never liked it and now it bores me silly. And like you I find they never have what I want. I was looking in a catalog for a simple little day dress (like my grandmother used to wear in summer) and nothing! I do love the dresses you found though and the cardigans to go with them. Very nice!

Exclusive Clip: Fed Up Chrissy Goes Off On Jim Jones When He Asks To Postpone Wedding In "Jim & Chrissy: Vow Or Never"
Jim Jones Asks To Push Wedding Back
Chrissy Lampkin explodes in anger at her love Jim Jones in the season finale of their reality show "Jim & Chrissy: Vow Or Never."
In BOSSIP's exclusive clip, Chrissy threatens to call off getting hitched to her boyfriend of 11 years after he asks her for the umpteenth time to postpone their nuptials. After a bit of back and forth, Chrissy storms off, leaving Jim to mull things over.
Peep the episode description:
Wedding plans are turned upside down when a secret that has been kept from Chrissy is finally revealed. Mama Jones meets with a psychic matchmaker to stay out of Jim and Chrissy's crosshairs, but unbeknownst to Mama Jones, the future of her son's love life is not looking too bright… In attempt to save their friendship after Jim saw her naked at the house, Tiffany ambushes Chrissy with an apology. Meanwhile, Freekey becomes more and more infatuated with Tiffany since seeing her exposed and meets with Mama for some dating tips to muster the courage to ask Tiffany on a real date. But will Tiffany say yes to the guy who spilled the secret that caused turmoil between her and Chrissy? Jim and Chrissy call an unexpected dinner with Mama Jones and their friends. Everyone is blindsided when the hip hop duo makes a shocking announcement-the wedding is off! Jim fights to save the wedding and takes Chrissy on a yacht trip, but will his last ditch effort steer them to happily ever after or will they be done forever?
The season finale of "Jim & Chrissy: Vow Or Never," airs tonight on We TV.

The World Wide Web turns 25
So this means Ponies pre-date the WWW, that's pretty funky to know. But then without the web our fandom would never have reached such levels. Sure they'd be fans but without this fantastic meeting place in cyberspace people's creativity would never have been free to be seen, for many they would have never been able to get the inspiration to start. Not only that but thanks to the web we've been able to meet so many other nutters who love the stuff we do, which is probably one of the greatest things ever. Heck, when I was in primary school I was in a class of about five guys and 26 girls, which might be cool in College but back when you're a kid it's a bit crappy for finding people who have the more geekier interests.
So, well done to the web for living this long, lets hope you keep on going for another 25 years yet!

in the Advanced / Show debug settings menu, try:
'renderUseFBO' "TRUE"
'renderDeferred' "TRUE"
Good luck, and please don't swear at me if your viewer dies! By the way, the two images above were actually both taken with shadows enabled. The 'with shadows' image was taken with 'High-res Snapshot' enabled in the Advanced menu, while the shadowless image is a regular snapshot.
PS: I did try to check the covenant to see whether snapshots were specifically prohibited, but the covenant was so long that I almost lost the will to live.

What a sweet piece! And what a phenomenal artist.
When we visited Charleston, SC, I fell in love with the iron gates that were everywhere. We picked up 4 drawings by a local artist of some of those gates and I just love them!

These are lovely paintings. Funny how certain pieces of art remind you of experiences or people you love.
One of my favorite painting was a gift from my Uncle Tom. He painted a lovely landscape & gave it to me before he died. It will always remind me of him. It is such a treasure.
Hope you are well,

Wonderful pieces of art. Her colors are clear and vibrant and she manages to capture the personality of her subjects.
I see that she was an etsy featured artist - a very well deserved acknowledgment of her talent.

What a lovely work of art. Yes, her art is lovely. Many of her paintings transform me to another time and place.
My favorite piece of art is from my daughter many years ago. A watercolor...just a flower on a small canvas.

My 11-year-old son enjoyed a residential trip to Okehampton in Devon last week.
Before he boarded the coach I told him to make sure he behaved himself and kept away from any silly behaviour that might occur in the dormitory.
Apparently last year, on exactly the same trip, a dad was asked to drive to Devon and collect his son, who had disgraced himself.
The only thing that put a bit of a downer on the whole week was the fact that my dad was there!
I told my son that if I received such a call, I would be using his pocket money to pay for my fuel to Devon.
I remember going on a school day trip to Wimbledon to watch the tennis, I chose to sit on the back row of the coach and this proved to be a big mistake.
People started making rude gestures to the drivers behind and showing them Page 3 pictures of Sam Fox.
What these naughty fellow pupils hadn't realised is that writ large on the back of the school coach was the telephone number. We were really very easy to trace.
Unsurprisingly, the next day the unimpressed headmaster summoned several of the pupils, me included, to his office for a one-to-one about representing the school in public!
Lou: When I was 10 I went on a brilliant school trip to the Isle of Wight.
We stayed for a week in an activity centre where we did loads of exciting things like rock climbing, obstacle courses and archery.
The only thing that put a bit of a downer on the whole week was the fact that my dad was there!
My school was really tiny, with only about 90 kids in total, and only one male teacher.
So when Mr Kettle hurt his back, they had to find another adult male to accompany us on the trip or we couldn't go.
My dad was really involved with school music, so all the kids knew him.
So he was invited into the head teacher's office and asked if he'd go along.
I spent the whole week trying to avoid him and he probably did the same.
All in all this worked pretty well, until the disco on the final night.
I'm afraid there's just no avoiding dad dancing!

Have you ever wondered to yourself if pre-made phở in a box would be a good idea? Well, I thought there wasn't a better way to kick off October than to answer that question.
I am not a very picky eater, so I don't often write about my dining experiences. In this entry, I'm not going to critique the flavors, the aroma nor even how I felt as I cooked–warmed up in this case–the food. Instead, I'm going to share the pictures of the food as I prepared it, how I went about cooking it and whether I liked the food or not.
I purchased the phở from Trader Joe's. For those of you who are unfamiliar with Trader Joe's, it's a grocery store located in various parts of the country–in other words, it's not a national chain. I thought it would be a good idea to wash down the phở with chicken eggrolls, also from Trader Joe's.
Here are pictures of each item in their respective boxes.
Since I didn't want to bother cooking the food via the stove, I decided to resort to my good old friend the microwave. The instructions called for adding water to the container, then nuking the phở for 3 minutes. For the eggrolls, I placed them on a dish and heated them for 3 minutes.
After cooking both items, I tested them to make sure they were really warm. I had to heat the phở for another minute because it was still a little cooler than what I would have liked. As for the eggrolls, you will notice I cut them in half. They were still a little chilly in the middle, so I wanted warm them for another minute.
Finally, after all that labor intensive work, both dishes were ready for consumption.
Regarding my overall impressions of the food, I probably won't try these two things again. As I have already mentioned, I am not very picky when it comes to food. But, I wasn't very thrilled with how these two things tasted. If you want to eat phở, I would suggest going to a Vietnamese restaurant that actually serves it.
I was disappointed with the chicken eggrolls because they tasted more like vegetable eggrolls. There was hardly any chicken in any of them, which left me pondering if I should report my missing chicken to the police. Then I realized, "Nah. The police are probably too busy arresting peaceful protesters."
