• 2:41
  Speaker 1: there in the evening. That Adrian right now. Then let's
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: do some local cricket stuff. Folks them first eleven, we'll
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: start with them. Will they travel to Maystone to play
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: the Moat Cricket Club Last Saturday. Mote won the toss
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: and put Folks that into bat, who made a whopping
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: three hundred and twenty nine for six in their fifty overs.
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: Top scorer Rudra Dande making a one hundred and fifty
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: six Mover then bowled out for one hundred and four
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: and twenty four overs, so Folks then won the game
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: by two hundred and twenty five runs. This week there
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: are way too broad stairs. Hawkins were put into bat
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: by Canterbury thirty eleven and went on to make two
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: hundred and ninety for six in forty overs, top scorer
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: John Durant with ninety one. Hawkins then bowled their opponents
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: out for forty nine, Sean Carey taking four wickets for
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: twenty eight runs, thus winning the game by two hundred
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: and forty one runs. This week Hawkins are at home
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: to Willsborough. Iive won the toss and decided to bat
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: against the Way Cricket Club, making one hundred and seventy
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: four for eight. Why then made one hundred and seventy
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: eight for two, top scorer with Stuart Wise with eighty four,
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: So I I've lost the game by eight wickets. This Saturday,
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: Hive away to Deal Victoria and Barnes Close hive Green Now.
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: They were put into bat by Nelson Cricket Club and
• 4:00

• 4:08
  Speaker 1: sixty seven runs. This week they're at home to Herne
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: Bay Tenteddon won the toss against Saltwood that decided to bat,
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: making one hundred and eighty five for nine. Salt managed
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: one hundred and forty four all out so I lost
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: the game by forty one runs. The Saturday Saltwood are
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: a way to whits the ball now in a low
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: scoring game but a very close game. Sipton Park were
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: put into bat by Addington but could only make eighty
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: four all out. Addington then made eighty five for nine wickets,
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: winning the match by just one wicket, so that must
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: have been a bit of a tense last over. This week,
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: the Sibs are away to King zeal second eleven and
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: as we said, Saturday's wather looks really dry and sunny
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: and the temperatures around twenty two degrees, so it looks
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: like it's going to be a good day for cricket.
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: So I've got some more cricket news for you later
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: on in the show, because me and missus Ferrett even
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: off to Canterbury yesterday evening to watch ken Spitfires play Gloucester,
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: and I'll tell you about that later. In the meantime,
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: We've got a couple of summary beautiful day type songs
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: and this is exactly that. This is you two and
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: beautiful day boys of summer. There, Don Henley, there was
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: a couple of summer songs there that was you two
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: in a beautiful day and Don Henley there. I think
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: we should play as many summer songs as we can
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: because this weekend it's going to be hot, hot, hot, hot,
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: and an amazing It wasn't so long ago that they
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: were giving us a weather warning because of the storms
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: and the winds, and now they're giving us a weather
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: warning because it's going to be too hot. What is
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: this weather coming to? Who should we blame?
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: What?
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: You thackon the Russians? Yeah, it's got to just blame
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: the Russians. Anyway. It's going to be a hot weekend,
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: so let's just be careful. Put out that sun cream
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: and take plenty of fluids on board, and then just
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: look after yourself. Really, if you're getting too hot, go indoors. Right.
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: So I'm going to tell you now about the charing
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: ten K. I was on the last I was on
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: the mic last Friday evening at the charing ten K,
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: where two hundred and sixty four runners across the finish line.
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: First runner home was James Wisby for Deal tri Club
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: in thirty six minutes sixteen seconds. First Lady runner home
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: was Hayley MPIT from FTC, which stands for a fit together.
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: Canny Cross. Now I've said this a few times if
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: you don't know what canny cross is. Basically it's if
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: you ever go to a canny cross meeting, you will
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: hear it from half a mile away because the runners
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: it's normally on a trail or in a forest. They
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: run with the dog, their dog by lead to their
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: waist and so. And when they're all starting together, what
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: a noise. They're all barking for England. But it is
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: good fun anyway. The first runner home for the Folkston
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: Club was a Nick Steel in fourth place, where we
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: also picked up a prize for the first VET forty.
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: Taubn Jessen was the first in his age category at
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: the VET sixty and Rebecca Powne. Well done to you, Rebecca.
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: She was the third lady home overall. Now, if you
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: cast your mind back to last Friday, it was a warm,
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: sultry evening and there was a weather warning out. There
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: was one hundreds of these little black bugs about, you know,
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: and you know the ones where if you wear it
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: like a bright colored shirt, they're straight on you. Well
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: that's what I had. I had a sort of fluorescent
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: type yellow shirt and I was covered in them. Well,
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: we had two short, sharp down paws and everybody thought, okay,
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: this is it. Here comes to the storm, but they
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: passed on over. However, coming home heading south down the
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: age twenty and twenty, as we were driving, we could
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: see the light in the distance over folks and putting
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: on a light show for us. It was like lighting
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: up the channel now and the race. Special mention must
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: go to Penny Southern, who was the sole representative of
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: the South Kent Harriers. She came home listened to this.
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: Three seconds outside of one hour, so frustrating. One hour
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: and three seconds. And if you are a runner and
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: you set yourself a target of an hour or fifty
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: minutes or forty five minutes and you come three seconds
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: outside of that type, that's so frustrating. You think I
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: should have run three seconds faster at the start. Anyway,
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: the race was hosted by Ashford Striders in conjunction with
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: nice work.
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: Now.
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: I mean there was good because there was a definite
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: Friday evening feeling about the race, with the great atmosphere,
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: lots of clubs in good mood and a nice touch
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: by the Striders was the cake stall. Now, runners from
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: the Striders club either made or bought cakes along, which
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: were then sold for a donation, the money going into
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: Pilgrim's hospices. So nice touch there, and well done to
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: the ashtrastriders all wall down to everybody. They're the marshals,
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: the runners, the volunteers, the tail walkers making an awesome evening.
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, hang on, did he forgot? There was also
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: a children's race and I did ask some of the
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: runners if they'd just come over and support the children,
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: and loads of them came over and it must have
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: made them feel The children feel really great from the
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: first one to the last one. And so we're down
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: to you senior runners for joining the parents in cheering
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: the kids in. Okay, a bit of music now from
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: nineteen ninety five. This is supergrass? All what supergrass? Nineteen
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: ninety five? All right, it's got a bit of a
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: summer fiel to it, isn't it. I like that one
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: right now? Then time for a roundup of park run
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: venues that our local athletes attended last Saturday. And this
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: is beginning to become a bit of a regular feature
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: on the Sport Show. And I do need to thank
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: all the correspondents from the Folks and Running and Athletics
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: Club because I pick up the information off of their
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: website to be honest, and it tells me where some
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: of the runners have been over the weekend. But the
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: good thing I like about it is is did I
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: try to find out more about the actual park runs
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: and what part of the country they're in and what
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: the course is like? So anyway I have a little
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: listen to this. Visits were made, but yeah, visits were
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: made to the nearby ones as usual. Further Afield found
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: runners at Hadley Country Park in Essex, now Hadley Country Park.
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: I know this for a fact because I've compared a
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: few races there. It's the former Olympic mountain bike course,
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: so it believed me. It is very hilly and on
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: a cold day that when whips right across the top
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: of the hill there off the River Thames. But yeah,
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: what a great venue. Now a Newbury was another course visited.
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: Their start line is on the infamous the Greenham Common
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: Old Runway. Remember that was in the news years ago
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: every day it was in the news Greenham Common. Other
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: venues were Clear Park Run in Hayward's Heath, which is
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: in West Sussex, Reigate Priory Park Run which is in Surrey,
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: the Cyclo Park Run which is in Gravesend, but it's
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: not actually run on the Cyclo Park course, it's on
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: a tarmac path nearby. And finally our athletes were out
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: at seven Fields Park Run, which is in Swindon. Now,
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: if you remember a couple of weeks ago I told
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: you about Marshall Smith from for Day, see he came
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: to the Folkstone Park Run and was just one second
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: outside that course record when he came back last Saturday
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: and beat Charlie Bridgley's course records in August twenty twenty
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: three by six seconds in a time of fifteen minutes
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: and two seconds. So well done to you, Marshall. Now
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: then Endure twenty four. Have you ever heard of it? Well,
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: it's an ultra run with a difference. It starts at
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: twelve o'clock on midday on a Saturday and finishes at
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: twelve o'clock midday the following day on a Sunday, hence
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: Endure twenty four. Now, the course in Reddin Is is
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: an eight k sorry eight k trail loop and the
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: idea is to run as far as you can in
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: twenty four hours eight kilometers by the way is around
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: five miles. Two brave runners from South Kent Harriers gave
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: it a go. Craig Hoveman managed seventy miles along the
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: way and he raised over six hundred pound for Tommy's
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: the Pregnancy charity. And Jared Dobson runs sixty miles and
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: he rode two hundred pound for McMillan Cancer Support. So
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: massive congratulations that go to Craig and Chart there who
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: put themselves through the challenge to raise money for charity.
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: That's awesome. Now you don't have to enter as a
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: solo runner. You can enter as a team with up
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: to twelve people. Now that seemed to be the most
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: popular thing to do, consequently not spending so much time
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: on the track. Now, when I looked at the results,
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: there were so many teams there and it must have
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: had I hope this has been like a rock festival
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: like Glastonbury. It must have been tens all over the
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: place because they obviously stayed the night anyway, So I
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: mean you run an hour and then eleven hours off
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: of there's twelve of you in the team. How good
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: is that? Then you've got to await eleven hours you
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: run your hour and then let your teammates do all
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: the work. Now studying the results, a gentleman called Dean
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: Lenihan runs solo for twenty four hours. His first five
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: mile lap took him listen to this thirty six minutes
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: twenty six seconds, and his slowest lap, which was his
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: last lap, Listen to this, it took one hour, thirty
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: six minutes and twenty six seconds, one hour slower to
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: the second the difference between the first lap and the
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: last lap. And don't blame him after being twenty four
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: hours on your feet, He actually ran twenty seven laps
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: which covered the distance of one hundred and thirty five miles. Now,
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: running solo is the toughest thing to do, which is
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: why the courage of Craig and Jared definitely need applaud in.
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: So we're unto you fellas now only found out about
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: this one this morning. As the part a former guest
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: of the show in South Kent Harrier Amy Stimpson was
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: part of an eight member team called the Sempire Juggalos.
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: The other seven members were Darren Mills and Allie Knight
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: For also from the South Kent Harriers, Alicia Lilly Kelly Kirby,
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: Jody Gavin and Louise Batton, all Dover Road runners and
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: not forgetting Felicity Barmfield. They on his twenty one laps
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: and a total of one hundred and five I was
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: between them now. It must have been a weird evening
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: through the night as they decided to have a break
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: to dry off and get a bit sleep, which is
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: the beauty of Endure twenty four. You do what you
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: can now. I asked Amy for a few phrases to
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: sum it all up, and she told me pouring rain,
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: leaky tents, friends made for life. Best weekend of the year.
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: So good, they're ready to sign out for a fourth
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: year and go back and do it all over again.
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: So Amy, thanks for all that information and your report,
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: and we'll see you at the Dover Park Run sometime now.
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: This song is for in the last few months. I
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: suppose I've been dedicating songs to a famous artist who
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: have sadly passed away, but this one is dedicated to
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: a man who celebrated his eighty third birthday. I do
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: believe it was yesterday. As a Paul McCartney, I mean, well,
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: a legend, there's no other word for it. For this
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: song writing right back to the sixties with the Beatles.
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: So let's have a little listen to Paul McCartney. This
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: is a this is a James Bond theme. The I mean,
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: they do make some great songs as James Bond themes
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: that you know from the films. It's been a bit
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: quiet on the James Bond front, isn't it. Perhaps they've
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: made it as many films as he've written books. So anyway,
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: let's have a little listen to Live and Let Die.
• 16:16
  Speaker 2: When you are your heart what an open book used
• 16:25
  Speaker 2: to say, Jennifer Lopez, my love docast thing.
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: There you go, she said it for you. Love don't
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: cost the thing, right. So we've got some netball news.
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: Now I've got some scores. Now you know the drill.
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: I named the team, name the score, and name the
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: star player. So here we go. We've got a Scorpion's

• 17:45
  Speaker 1: so now it's time to have a little chat about
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: the cliff Top Challenge. Now I'm on the mic down
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: there on Saturday in Deal and this is a unique race,
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: to be honest. There's several distances and unfortunately all thees
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: are sold out and so it's it's a shame, but
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: you can still join in. I'll tell you about that
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: in a minute. There's several distances and if you are
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: an ultra runner and you don't become an ultra runner overnight,
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: you've been training and putting the mileagein, so you won't
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: be doft enough if you've only run around the block
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: to try an ultra because the ultra distance is fifty
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: five miles starting right out near Hastings. They start at
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: two o'clock in the morning and run all the way
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: to deal. Runners can then start out a thirty six
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: mile point and then there's a twenty six point two
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: mile marathon point and then there starts at fifteen, ten
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: and five miles, all ended up on the Warmer Green
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: bandstand for a grand finish. Now, I think that the
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: five mile the five miler is the most favorite because
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: that means that the children is doable for some fit children.
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: Their parents will know. But to see the children coming
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: in after running, and it's a good thing that it's
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: all one wave, like you don't have to go round
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: to the track or do loops. It's five miles one way.
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: And there's a family called the Rembridges. They've been doing
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: this for years. They have raised absolutely thousands of pounds
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: for breast cancer now and when they come in the
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: place erupts. They really do. Now this event is in
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: its eleventh year, having raised a whop in two hundred
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: thousand pounds in the past ten years for breast cancer
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: Now under the guidance of cancer survivor Chantelle Rashbrook, her
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: husband Phil, all the members of her family and I mean,
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: it really is a spectacular event. So you can pop
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: down there to the finish line and join in the fun.
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: The runners are expected back from around twelve thirty onwards
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: and there's music live music on the bandstand from around
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: two o'clock until eight pm, all the local musicians giving
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: up their time. Last year we had rain. It was
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: awful what we had to pour in rain. It was
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: nice for the runners, but it looks good this year.
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: It's going to be sunny, not too good for the runners,
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: but great party weather. Just come along. There's vendors there
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: selling drinks, selling burgers and setting all sorts of stuff.
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: If you want to come along prepared, I don't know,
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: bring your own chair, have a little sit down, bring
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: a picnic mat, bring all the family along. The town
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: of Deal do really push the boat out for this one,
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: I've got to say. And they've been supporting Chantelle and
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: Phil for all these years and they just get behind her.
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: She is loved by everybody in the town. It's a
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: brave story. I remember she ran Race for Life many
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: years ago, raising money for somebody else that had breast cancer. Sadly,
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: she contracted breast cancer herself. Then she got secondary breast cancer,
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: but she bounced back. She has made so much money,
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: so many friends with the charity along the way, So
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: the only way to do it is to go along
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: and support her and if you like, if you've got
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: a few speedball then make a little donation. Now this
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: song was actually in the playlist today. I was at
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: the Charing and went into the pub afterwards with some
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: of the runners from the Folks and Running Club, and
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: I was speaking to Gary Brazier and we were talking
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: about music and stuff, and he and Marie, his wife,
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: who both former guests of the show, went up to
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: Liverpool to see this next artist. He said it was
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: a box that he had to tick and he wasn't disappointed.
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: There was a guest appearance of Birthday Boy Paul McCartney
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: and he did a couple of songs, but Gary said
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: he was just blown away by the performance of this
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: gentleman singing the streets of Philadelphia. Let's have I listened
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: to Bruce Springsteen. It's bruised and battered. I couldn't do
• 22:03
  Speaker 1: what I feeled.
• 22:04
  Speaker 2: I was unrecognized.
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: Bruce Springsteen now one of his quieter songs, if you like.
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: He's normally known for dragging people up on stage and
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: joining him with a dance. But so they don't hear
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: that one very often, so that's well worth of playing. Okay, well,
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: we're just going to go into another song, I think
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: because this is cropped up in the playlist as well,
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: another one that I love. I think they only made
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: two songs that really stick in your mind. This is
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: one of them. This is Asa bass and the sign
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: as a base sort of sign. Love it? Okay, Now,
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: yesterday evening myself and missus Ferrett we had a pleasant
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: time at the Canterbury Cricket Ground watching the Kent Spitfires
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: playing against the Gloucester shere in the T twenty cricket
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: The weather was perfect. It was I don't know, twenty
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: twenty five degrees, sunny, no cloud. They'll tell you what.
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: It's only went one thing that's spoilt the whole evening.
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: Kent lost by seven wickets. Kent batted first and made
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: one hundred and fifty seven for nine. They've seen to
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: make hard work for you know. I've thought, you know,
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: I'm sure it wasn't enough and I was right. Gloucester
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: hit one hundred and sixty for three. I mean that
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: their openers were really knocking the ball about all over
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: the place and they did it with two overs to spare.
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: Now we've been a couple of times and it really
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: is a lively evening round the ground if you've never
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: been there before. There's bars, there's caterers, salims or of
• 24:04
  Speaker 1: food from Thailand, you know, Greece, even fish and chips.
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: There's pyrotechnic flames burst into life and music plays every
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: time something exciting happens, like a four or a six.
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: There's plenty of crowd interaction and there was a very
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: good I don't know her name, as she was very
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: good with female mc and so if you've never been
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: there before, it's well worth a visit. I mean we
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: were sitting, if you like, alongside the wicket where we
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: could see, not of bird's eye view or anything, but
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: I will say that if you know the ground, we
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: were over the side where there's a set of apartments,
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: and what a fantastic view. They all come out. There's
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: not in the ground is there's a big fence in
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: the way and they've got their own balconies. And however,
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: one batter as they're called, they're not called batsmen or
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: bats women anymore, called batters. He hears six and the
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: ball landed in the grounds of the apartments and the
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: tea what they look for it and it was never
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: to be seen again. Now, in case you're wondering what
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: T twenty is, it's basically a fast moving twenty over
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: game where the players are really going for it. The
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: T twenty League is split into two groups, North and South,
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: and Kent are currently sixth out of nine in the
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: South group. There's playoffs at the end of the season
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: between the North and South. The top clubs go to
• 25:28
  Speaker 1: the finals day at Edgeburston. So what can I say?
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: It really was a perfect evening, you know, it was
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: a lovely summer, typical cricket evening. It just the sound
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: of leaver on Willow, sound of music, the taste of
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: beer and chips lovely now the highlight of the evening.
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: And it wasn't too far away from us when a
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: batter he hears six. It went over the boundary and
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: it was caught by a spectator and it was caught
• 25:54
  Speaker 1: on camera as well, and he won himself the Fan
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: of the match. The cameras kept replaying this catch. You know,
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: it was just just perfect. He was just standing there,
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: put his arm up, two hands bang called the ball
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: and for that little out of you know, instant recognition,
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: he gained two Pick two tickets to the final of
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: the T twenty match at Edgeburston. Right, so we're going
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: to play a little song now from old Garbage that
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: reminds me I must put the bins out today. This
• 26:28
  Speaker 1: is garbage and stupid girl. But let's garbage there, stupid girl. Okay,
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: let's about it for this week. We've just got to
• 27:00
