Following on from ECC Saturday Skiper’s poignant questioning of what, indeed, does ECCVC David Waring do? It can now be revealed that he does…the washing up!

The following photos, taken by our hidden photographer reveal that Mr Waring  likes nothing more on a Saturday evening than to dress up in ladies clothing, crack open a bottle of special brew and don the old rubber gloves to partake in a spot of washing up.

Mr Waring declined to comment on the allegations at the time of going to press.

On a day threatening rain, 7 teams and 1 cup arrived at Updown expecting the gloomy morning to turn to rain. The sun broke through however and spirits were raised in anticipation of a good day. There was a brief moment of disappointment when holders The Griffins Head pulled out, but the club rallied round and cobbled together a team of “All Stars” with players including Messers Betts’, Hill’s and Swain’s better halves.Some of the highlights of the day included a cracking display of six hitting from Harry Kenton and Gareth Friend, one of the widest wide balls ever seen at Updown (beating Steve Harmisons Ashes opener by a fair margin), Totty’s Barbecue (as always), The Chairman’s “Matrix”, Jim and Dickie both hitting shots to the off side, Chopper Leechy’s big purple batting hat, Ump Cam and Will K’s one handed Waring-esque catch to name but a few. However, the Champagne Moment award went to James Piper’s dazzling display of footwork fielding, particularly one moment when he raced (?) round the outfield to get to the ball, chipped the ball up with his foot and into his hand and threw back to the keeper, all in one fluid motion. Well done Lightning! Unfortunately, the Roger Gilham “Clown Honk” and the “Pin the injury on the Mayland” stall alas did not appear on the day to entertain the crowds during the quieter moments.

Special mention and a big thank you goes to the Ladies of ECC who supplied the teams and spectators with an (un)healthy array of cakes and tea throughout the afternoon. And many thanks too to all contributors who helped make the day a triumph. Also, it seems only fair to mention the efforts of one Chris Adam-Reynolds, who spent a good couple of hours on the sit-on mower the day before, keen to make the ground look extra special. Guess who forgot to engage the mower blades though? See Chris’ face turn red!

Finally, well done the Tilmanstone VI who beat a very strong Young Ones A VI in a tight final that saw lots of runs scored (and no broken bones this time Jeff). Well done chaps and well done to everyone who took part.

See you all next year.

Well, it’s not just Goldenballs moving the the US this summer, our very own Goldenhands, Aaron Friend, has moved over there for a couple of months and will be providing us with his own views on living in America, how he’s coping with the alcohol age limit of 21 and whether baseball really is rounders in disguise!
