On a delightful summers afternoon, the foxes and I took a little trip over to Islip to a recently ploughed field, I mean cricket pitch, to take on the ever gleeful Thrapston… my memories of this ground aren’t the best after our last outing with Jon T and Olly J nursing terrible hangovers (don’t drink...Read More
First off, I must apologise for the tardiness of the blog this week, I’ve only just got back in the door thanks to the woeful public transport around here. I don’t know what I said to our dashing young British-Australian (or is it the other way round?) when he gave me a lift to the...Read More
Well… the sun was shining, the lads were returning to (not so) fortress foxfields for the first time this season, so I dragged my bedraggled carcass out of bed, and up to the sunny (and always windy) confines… What was I to find, but none other than a bar serving some delightful refreshments! Oh yeah…...Read More
Hello my Lovelies, it’s great to be back, watching some cricket in the sunshine and seeing some familiar faces again! It was great to see young Jac, who was on time for the away game, but alas he forget his lunch, such was his concentration on getting to the right venue! Where do I start!...Read More
Hello Again my lovelies After a thoroughly enjoyable evening last week watching my foxes playing Pyjama cricket (I could get used to this) I took my bottle of Sherry to Foxfields to watch a belated next instalment. (Belated due to some Football match or other on the Tuesday). This week we were up against a...Read More
Hello my lovelies, with the horrible weather, multiple pricks in the arm and my advancing years I haven’t been about that much and had to watch the Cricket on the TV, I have to admit I love that Michael Holding, voice like velvet, hmmmmmmm. Anyway, I recently heard a rumour that my boys have been...Read More
As summer has finally arrived, and I’ve had both of my jabs I thought it I’d head down to foxfields for what was the first home game of the season, in week 7 no less! Bloody rain. The coin was flipped and Harlestone looking at a dry and cracked wicket thought… we don’t fancy that,...Read More
Having had my jabs (perks of being elderly), I was happy to venture over to Brixworth to see my lovely Fox’s play their first game of the season. I was even happier to see a svelte looking Ian Peterson rock up to umpire, as there was finally someone for me to flirt with 🥰 as...Read More
Afternoon my foxes (and those readers from afar) I arrived at Foxfields for only the second time for a league game this year and felt a bit strange and wary this time around. There was an ominous gloom in the air and I must say I nearly blew away as I set up my chair...Read More
Good day my dear Foxes… (and, so I hear, those further afield). Saturday was our first ever fixture against a Wellingborough Town side, and you boys packed me up all nice and warm and transported me over to a rather cloudy and dreary field in the middle of Higham Ferrers, the ground looked half decent,...Read More
