haha, yes. The game seemed quite easy for about a month or so - even though I never shot that again. Next time out I had 81 - thinking I'll never shoot that this time around. Then I was 3 under after 5 the time after that and shot 74 :blink: I used to play quite a lot.

I won a random running race against my drunk friends on New Year's night. I was exceptionally proud.

Mark Billcliff (his brother played for Canada at the World Cup)
His dad was my science teacher at Otago Boys High at my years there and my cricket coach - Ian Billcliff.. he was a very good friend and mentor over all.. and i remember he always made us do our work soon so we could watch test cricket on tv.. or he would set work for the class, so that him and me could be off to the computer room to watch the Developing nations try and grab a spot in the ICC world Cup.. and his son plays for Canada ( had the opportunity to meet him a couple of times too ) and i knew of Cricinfo and he knew how deep i was into cricket.. so we used to follow the live cricket when Canada was playin its games.. haha he went threw all the emotions when his son was batting!

my cricketing boasts, career best of 115, other high scores of 92, 90 and 87. Once took 6/20 off 7 overs in a 1d games, also made 49 opening the batting in that game.
captained a team to a premiership averaging over 40 with the bat that season and also took 17 wickets.

Played a few seasons of league and union in my younger days, playing rep in both, was always better at league though.

went to the nationals for indoor cricket at under 18 level, got to play against the sri lankan national team, they were pretty good!

Didn't you have te advantage of not being drunk?

Was there some form of after race testing?

And what proof do you have?

As for me being envious? Don't think so.
What evidence do you have that I'm related to Bradman? No-one's said anything in relation to that though.
