St Andrews 1
Chessington 5
Fours Division 3
Having won our opening 3 games all away, maybe we thought about promotion a bit too soon! We were brought down to earth by Chessington fielding their usual team, which included a strong player who is normally based at Bookham. (no wonder!) Club president Hanson bailed at the last minute, claiming to have not been aware of the game, and Matt was drafted in at the expense of his dinner, but efforts were in vain this time. We were made to run off the excess Christmas pud as 3 of the 6 rubbers went to 3 games, but only Matt and Paul won theirs. Me and Matt took the Bookham player to three ends but lost 22-20 19-21 15-21, which was my closest rubber of the night by miles.
