Big Thanks from TMCC
TMCC Latest
After the rain of recent times it was no great surprise that the bowlers came out on top in last nights match at Tuck Mill .
Batting first Millers innings was glued together by a patient 20 not out from Shane Tout, supported by 27 from Jason Wood and 18 from Dan Rugg, closing on 94 all out with just seven shots breaching the boundary ropes and Bob Adam’s returning very impressive figures of 5-12.
Fullsys Allstars response was pretty much halted before it could get going with Neil Chambers taking 5-5 right at the start of the innings and …

TMCC News – July 2021
It never ceases to amaze me how quickly the weather can change at this time of year- so from my piece last month when I was fretting about the damp weather, we have moved to a new situation whereby the Skipper/Plumber and I had a conversation yesterday about the most effective way to water the wicket as its starting to crack . For those who don’t know The Tale Valley is full of nature but not so full of topsoil – perhaps unsurprising on a flood plain !
The minute I put pen to paper our impressive record will, of course, be cursed , but I have …

TMCC News – May 2021
Well after a very dry April there was something predictable about the start of the cricket season, so after a couple of dry but somewhat chilly weeks we are now in the middle of a damper spell. That should not be confused with the dampening of enthusiasm among our squad for whilst we have only managed two games to date they have resulted in a 100% away record, with wins coming at Clyst Hydon (when it felt like about minus 5) and down on the Jurassic Coast at Branscombe, when it was a bit warmer. Whilst we haven’t yet been trusted to change …

TMCC News – March 2021
Well, well, things seem to be looking up for the cricketers amongst us ! In his wisdom Boris looks to be taking us down a road that should mean “elite sport and athletes” ( for those in doubt, yes that’s us) can resume their activities some time soon. It remains a little unclear at present exactly when but we have a full fixture list starting with an away game at Clyst Hydon on 28th April, fingers crossed. I bumped into Janet earlier on whilst handing over a prolapse harness (for a ewe) and the good news is that Chef Eduardo is keen to resume …

Update from TMCC – March 2021
As I type this I’m looking out over a very wet cricket field with a very full River Tale lapping along the boundary . Its that time of year when the sheep are allowed in so the outfield is gradually turning to mud – it never ceases to amaze me how nature can turn a sodden muddy mess into the Payhembury equivalent of Lords in just a couple of months. Well, we play cricket on it and you can buy a pint, perhaps after that similarities with Lords are a bit more limited.
So after a much shortened 2020 season and what feels like a never ending very …
