The North Devon CC ground
is also the home of David Shepherd and the tourists were honoured by a brief
appearance of a familiar figure on a bench at the sea end before the rain fell.
Captain of the day CLT also managed to instruct a fielder to “go and
stand near that dog” without realizing it was Mr Shepherd’s dog,
“skipper”

The Ducklings innings
starts off with some confusion. Hanno,
who was due to open the batting again, was told by Bloggy that there was no way
he would be opening the batting two days in a row and that he and his wife
should finish his lunch in the pub. He then turns up two minutes before the
start with three other guys all padded up ready to open.
In the field, and having
to defend a meager total. The intensive coaching of Gonzo appears to have worked
and coming off a short run, Gonzo bowls with some control.
Gonzo also proves that he has absorbed all the lessons from Adey and any
loose deliveries are punctuated with the same cries of f*** that usually
emanate from his tutor.
