Practice Village Shoot-Out

So, a country riddled with gun crime loses in a shoot-out..... Who would have thought it? We're going to be insufferable now - till the next match.

Was reading a news item about the rate at which village schools are closing down or amalgamating to avoid closure. Of course, the problem is that as village kids are educated, they will naturally want to go on to university and leave the village to get a well paid job in a city. Perhaps we should avoid having any schools in villages so the villages thrive....

Confidence is increasing - yesterday was the first day of practice for several days, as I wanted to give my knee time to heal.
