Congratulations Ladies,
We gentlemen knew from the very beginning that we had a lot of opposition from the ladies legs 'n' bums! But we were very strong willed and didn't let the girls on top get their way. Don't give up hope girls..keep on trying ;0)

So true.
I've just been out trolley racing, Tesco again. Quite crowded considering the time of night. Never mind, it gave me a chance to drive my car in the dark for the first time. It's always fun trying to find all the knobs and switches for the first time.

Well done Hilary, a crushing victory! So it is true if you know what you are doing....
On the sour-grapes front, of course it would have been wrong of a gentleman's team to defeat a lady.
Our Captain, the great Socrates, was constrained by this moral dilemma, and indeed hobbled by the poor selections of his erstwhile team-members!
I do feel a special prize should go to stockbunny however, for both the effort she put in and the inspired creation of the "Ladies Team" thread, which added a whole new dimension to the proceedings, how about it GD?
I would also like to record my thanks for the sterling effort of our revered captain, for his efforts throughout the game, and the good humour with which he put up with the rest of us.

GD,
When you return, hopefully fit and rejuvenated, you really must consider the unanimous call for a special recognition for stockbunny!!

So we dropped a place but that's life and after the hospitality given to us in the North-West, we couldn't have been "nudged down" by a nicer team!
WELL DONE HILARY!
Big "thank you" to Golddog for setting this up and umpiring! Have a great time in Spain and I hope no quarantine problems on way back :-)
I must nominate Stockbunny as the very best captain - well done and thanks Bunny for keeping all us ladies and maggiebunton (!) under control!
