The dinner and dance is tomorrow night, and the season has been finished for nearly two weeks, so I thought it time to post the final result and match report on the results page. That’s all for the time being, but expect to see the season 2000 averages appear here in the not too distant future (honest!!)

The site has undergone a major revamp internally, the fruits of which are unlikely to be visible to the visitor until after the dinner and dance. Suffice to say that I’ve made things easier for me to manage locally, made it easier for search engine bots to process the site, and made the underlying HTML as standards compliant as I can, bearing in mind that the layout of the site does make use of one or two features that are specific to the two main browsers.

More usefully to you the reader I’ve also added details of the most recent game to the results page, along with a new link to a printer-friendly version of the 1999 results (which is actually the first fruit of the labours mentioned in the paragraph above), and added a couple more new links to the links page.

Latest results and match reports have been added to the results page, but again I’ve not had the time to do anything else :(

Latest results, and match reports this time, have been added to the results page, but I haven’t had the time to do anything else :(

(sigh) I really need to get my act together on updating these pages immediately after each match. I currently have a backlog of four weeks, and that has been compounded by my failure to realise that I’d forgotten to upload the last set of changes that I did to the site.

Anyway, enough breast-beating. You can find all the latest scores on the results page, but there aren’t any match reports for the last few weeks, nor have I managed to put together a page of all the past reports.

I have added several items to the news page as well as updating Mark’s details on the club officers page, adding a couple of new links to the links page and changing the fixture list to reflect the change of venue for this weekend’s game, albeit rather too late for anyone doing anything other than a last minute check.

Still catching up, so the results page now has information up to and including last weekend (16 July). I’ll update again in the middle of the coming week with this weekend’s game.

As ever my apologies for the backlog of results and news that has built up over the past month. A combination of working away from home during the week, ferrying the children to and from sundry events (especially cricket matches!!) at the weekends and our summer holiday have meant that I’ve been very lax in my duties. Hopefully I’ve bought things near enough up-to-date to satisfy everyone, and since I should be back to working from the office for the foreseeable future, I hope to keep things under control.

Changes this time out include a couple of items of interest added to the news page and the results up to and including tour weekend (see the results page for details). I hope to add a separate match reports page, to hold all the historical reports, plus some photographs taken on tour, as time permits.

Apologies for the delay in reporting the fact, but we fashioned our second win of the season last weekend. See the results page for details.

Our second game proved no more productive than the first, but you can find the gory details on the results page.

A minor adjustment has been made to the fixture list with the Nutfield game, which had to be rearranged to accommodate a postponed Village knockout tie on the original May date, now slated for the 11th June, which was previously an open date in the calendar.

Oh, and I’ve added details of the current running total from my sponsored weight loss to the relevant section of the news page.

As a result of the wash out we’ve extended indoor nets by a week, see the Nets section of the news page for a little more detail. I’ve also added details of my weight at the start of the season to the self-same news page so that you can all work out how much money you owe!!

The only other significant change this time out is a number of updates to the links page, mainly to sites that have been kind enough to add a link to this one, but also to the Club Cricket Conference web site so that you can check out what our annual subscription goes on :) Oh, and I’ve started dropping stale items from this What’s New section.
