RUN 1703 Venue: Sparrow Ground Spencer St Hare: Pus Bucket 2 February 2015


I wasn’t there but hear it was a cool night for summer, even by Ballarat standard.

Sparrow Ground is right up Spencer’s Street which is right up Spencer’s ally. There may even have been swallows there back in the day but was Seargeant Spence even there for the big game? Mountie dutifully supported as a backstop, holding up Snag’s other end and organising tea. Fortunately No1 Grog Master Fluid Movement was back though Normal didn’t want Her Near.  SOS and Little Evil lobbed with essential services.

No doubt a great run was had in the fabulous East leading to a drink stop on home to enjoy a Hash Bash Cricket Feast.

Joint GM Billy Goat ran the show with a plumb. Bookie Bill had first hand knowledge of the Significant Runs that were duly saluted.

Heavy had penned a song to the tune of the Seekers’ “Fly On Little Sparrow”. Was Rowdy there as infill screw song singing?  Did it get aired at all?

On On to the sparrow grounds
Far towards the East,
Where we shall be entertained
with a Pus Bucket cricket feast.

Cater, Little Mountie,
you get all the food?
Yes, do what every,
Good woman should do,
And if you behave yourself
Pus Bucket may puck you,
Oh, try to keep your mouth shut
He will be one truly happy man.

On On to the sparrow grounds
Far towards the East,
Where we shall be entertained
with a Pus Bucket cricket feast.

Silic with his rubber ball
Will bounce in the outfield,
Fluid movement will bat hard
And you know she will never yield,
Mrs Dickhead will be bowling
Because she likes to play with balls,
And when they are on her chin
She doesn’t talk at all?

On On to the sparrow grounds
Far towards the East,
Where we shall be entertained
with a Pus Bucket cricket feast.


Bent was apparently on fire with abounding humour. He was right amongst the game having to stand in as the middle stump and as the seargeant.  He no doubt sledged as he saw Silic hunt the field for the Red Rubber Ball. Then his feeble toss from the outfield, like a Rubber Ball that comes bouncing back to you.

And the winners were, Basher Bait and partner Criss Cricket Cross? Trophy and wine. Pus the presentation bloke told a very very funny Joke.

Behind the cloud there was a full moon that hits your eye like a Big Pizza Pie that’s amore and that’s about all hey? Heavy should be there to screw The Billy Goat in Person and Rowdy might be on the scene as the Reporter.
