Afternoon All What a cracking turn out yesterday to watch the Mighty Millers gain revenge for recent defeats to the Lions of Broadhembury ! Thanks especially to all those who either partook or supported the “River Run” in aid of DEMENTIA , over £170 was raised and the adult winner was Ben Peters in a time of just over 1 min 30S, the Youths winner was William from Tale in a very creditable time just over two minutes. Well done to both of you, also to Jonathan Hill for spending more on entry fees than he did in the bar 😊 Slowest time of the day …

Whilst starting at the finish doesn’t always seem logical, the Tale this month centres on two long standing local postmen, our very own Marty, to whom we said farewell after 33 years of going on about Burnley. (In another 33 years, will we even have a postie to go on about anything?) The times they are a changing. The second postie worthy of special mention is West Hill’s very own long standing Royal Mail Rep, Rick Rugg, who on 10 June skippered his Post Office XI in the annual game with The Millers. He skippered for only about 8 overs before …

Greetings from the SUNNY Tale Millers Cricket ground, never thought I’d be saying that ever again just a few weeks ago! Fittingly the season started on a damp chilly evening with a home game against the Broadclyst Pins. Due to the erratic nature of our scoring, I’m not completely convinced by the accuracy of my report but the Oppo batted first and posted a strong 112-8 with wickets for Steve Clegg, Jason Wood, and Neil Chambers. Will Wood will no doubt correct me if he feels hard done by. In response, we fell just short as the night drew in …

Not looking too good for The Chiefs just at the minute, but you never know!** We had two games this week, firstly trundling up the M5 to Nynehead on Tuesday evening, to record our third win on the bounce! The Nyneheaders batted first and on a balmy evening started brightly but faded to end on 92-9 and in response the Millers reached 93-6 in the fifteenth over. Good to see club captain Si Kittow back on the pitch for the first time this season, he’s reached that age where injuries kick in unfortunately 😊 Nynehead 92-9 (J Carden 2-4, M Hammett …

Morning All Following our trip to Nynehead next Tuesday we entertain The Talaton Inn XI on Friday evening at 6pm. Hopefully the cracking weather will hang around long enough for us to have an enjoyable evening’s cricket ! Now that we are getting some warmer evenings It would be great to see our Social Members, remember membership is just £10 for the whole summer, truly wonderful value, and we now have Tarka 4 and Wildsider from Otter Brewery available on Tap (only £3.00 per pint), with a range of wines and soft drinks and snacks also …
