A tyre-ing day

Monday 12th May

Written by Gwyn Williams

Tracey and Gwyn met Alex and the friendly crowd at Monday Mates. We had a slow start because one of the participants had a flat tyre which took some arranging to sort. Additional excitement was a visit by a cyclist cycling between all the county cricket grounds for charity. He'd started in Chester-le-Street! There was an opportunity to watch cricket practice on a hot summery day. We all had a great morning, despite a rumoured cake not appearing.

Hot shots

Friday 25th April

Written by Gwyn Williams

Becky, Tracey and Gwyn met Alex from DCF and the friendly group at Parkinson's Cricket. It was great to see Becky: welcome to the group! We had a lively chat at the start, then got down to Boccia! It was a tight game, with a 2-1 split of wins, one of them by a centimetre. We then proceeded to cricket, with fine form displayed by the players. A chatty tea and biscuit session brought our enjoyable morning to a close.

The Magnificent ... six

Monday 7th April

Written by Gwyn Williams

Tracey and Gwyn met the Mates at DCF's Monday Mates monthly session. Perhaps because of school holidays and a local party, there were only six comers. We had a good time and a friendly chat and had a big brunch too!

Mix and Match

Friday 4th April

Written by Gwyn Williams

Tracey and Gwyn joined the happy gang at Parkinson's Cricket. Alex from DCF had a competitive theme and had two games of bowling accuracy then one of batting accuracy, with one team winning two of the games, and the other one. A close match! We went on to a cricket game, tea and biscuits. It's a rewarding morning!

Begging bowl

Friday 7th March

Written by Gwyn Williams

Tracey and Gwyn joined the friendly group at DCF's Parkinson's Cricket today. With old and new players on fine form, we were kept very busy, including bowling. We love chatting to the players and carers during and after the session. One was helping with a raffle for DCF's walking cricket sessions. Come and join us next time!
