All the Allstars have now returned to Blighty.

The Tour was a success both on and off the field. On the field, we finished with a record of Played 2 Won 1 Lost 1. It was our best ever overseas result, made all the more impressive in that it was achieved despite Paul Bowman’s sloppy bowling and lacklustre batting. Off the field, a great time was had by all.

The lion’s share of the credit must go to Maxie of course. We all tease him mercilessly for his Mainwaring-esque leadership, but none of us have organised so much with such success. Thanks fella! I’m sure that all our readers will agree that he deserves a well-earned rest after all his hard work…
