| Report: | After a rocky start, including a humbling Hawaii 5-0 away at Radlett, the BS II battle bus has hit a bit of form and secured its third 4-1 victory against a Harpenden side full of experience, flair, hair and sass! Matt 'Big' D kicked things off, however, the Biggleswade bashing bagel boy was somewhat off the pace and was struggling against an unorthodox oppo in an error strewn display, eventually succumbing in straight games, was it indigestion or a hangover from his recent intensive Portuguese squash camp?! Meanwhile, Paul 'T2' Cousins took to the court like a polymetal alloy, almost time traveling in his movement, after a stodgy opener he was heard to whisper "ill be back" and he was, eventually terminating his opponent 3-0. Next up, the mercurial, the magnificent, Lee "The Magician" Jemmett. Waving his racket like a wand, he bamboozled, bedazzled and the mind boggled, the crowd oooed and aahed his opponent was befuzzled he slipped and slid and watched in awe, this boy has the arm of God and the body of Buddha, the ball was possessed, 3-0 "champagne squash" This was followed by Ambrose, the elder statesman against old warhorse Marvelous Marvin.It can get ugly between these two, low on entertainment and high on dispute with lots of technical infringements, it had it all, even an unplayable ballistic forehand drive from the BS skipper, zipping along the wall like a rat down a drain. Finally, "if youth only new, if age only could", has ever an allegory been so metaphorically apposite, Will "The Paradox" Johnson v Andrew "Wily" Eilfield, a cagey, cautious, calculating game ensued, they ducked and dived, jabbed and weaved, brain versus brawn, good versus evil, the crowd booed, the young gun triumphed! Victory! Chili: 6/10, let down by rice in a bag,scalding plates and no coriander, tsk tsk!!. |
