Have been reading back through the posts and I noticed that our manager

has been relieved of his duties.......ermm.gif

Don't know why but I did see in another topic that he was having IT problems

so maybe he has been sacked for not putting enough evert in to out project......sad.png

To which poster are you referring?

Please accept my sincere apology.

I believed that you were our designated manager.

re post #342

My mistake

You are our Promotions Manager (my bolding)

You are our were the Promotions Manager ... COUGH ... remember the girls!

OH ... Shucccccccch ... it is 11.30pm here in Australia and I think finally kevjohn is sleeping aloof-and-bored006.gif

No.... not sleeping, Just had to attend to some private matters...smile.png

As for being forgetful.......Yes David 48 , I most certainly agree

I hope that you and our esteemed manager will pardon my forgetfulness...crying.gif

Thats the reason that I have had these private matters to attend too....ermm.gif

Bast_ard ... I was saving that one till later when the thread got a bit quiet!

Now if giggly bits are not your go ... stop before the 40 sec mark.

I would just like to say thanks very much to David for the recent multimedia contributions to this thread

David's innings so far (on this thread), especially the monumental partnership with kevjohn, has been a shining example of the many positive attributes that cricket can instill upon a man (including, but not limited to, stamina, tenacity, dignity and good-humour)

Plopmeister's contribution should also be noted; it always helps if one of the middle-order can up the run-rate a bit

How will cricket solve the taxi price fixing scandal?

Nice signature; let me think about your question

Scams were covered in post #55

Did someone give kevjohn the day off?

Maybe he OD'ed on coffee? coffee1.gif

Indeed, he has not troubled the scorers for a while; maybe he will re-assert his authority with some aggressive shots after tea

...Kevjohn to face the first ball after the tea break... the bowl is pitched up a yard outside off-stump... Kevjohn slog-sweeps the ball over mid-wicket for six runs... more brute force than technique, but effective nonetheless

And all that after what I have just said....clap2.gif

Hope you are making allowances for that 3hr time difference. giggle.gif

If that could be the young ones playing (post #377 above), then this might represent the fairer sex if we could market it properly?

From #307 ... I didn't read gender equalisation (of rights etc)

Tighter shirts, and short shorts and you are on to a winner. That would probably pull me away from watching the paint dry. But women would need two boxes, one for each....... Okay, I'm leaving....
