Leeds Tournament (Nationals Warm Up)
Leeds baby yeah!!! Taking the challenge of the Leeds tournament, in no special order - Matt Cook, Ceri Jones, Ramzi Barbir, James Breese, Iwan Bevan, Grace Stimpson, Amy Shillabeer, Amy Miskell, Annett Lloyd Jones, Donna Waitt, Ulrike Schmerwitz.Just as we thought we were coming to the end of a smooth journey up to Leeds, Breese (snotty snotty snot boy) sneezed everywhere creating a slippery steering wheel, hindering his driving ability and missing the turning. Resulting in a half an hour tour of Leeds ghetto's! We found our way in the end and pilled out of the mini bus and into the house that was our abode for the weekend. The blokes, Donna and Little Lady ventured out to inspect the nightlife of Leeds on a Friday. The others decided to chill out and had a date with a video. We were up at what felt like the crack of dawn, for 7 hours of “intense” korfball. Starting well with a convincing ???score to??? However from then on we went down like a sack of spuds!!! Despite the cheering from Bristol we just couldn't seem to get the ball in the basket, thus limiting our chances of winning….anything! By the end of the afternoon we had secured a 15th place (out of 16, oops!)
We may not have done well on the court but our performance at the social was first class, well done Cardiff…. Pleased with are efforts from the day's events we rewarded ourselves with a Chinese and copious amounts of alcomafrol. This meal was finished off by Bambi and Grace reciting the whole of the Lion King script whilst stuffing their mouths full of sinful ice-cream. Then we hit Walkabout. It all started off so well, a few drinks and stimulating conversation and ended in carnage! In between all this was much dancing (on tables), many drinking games (on tables) and the usual awful shimmying from Little Lady, sorry guys! But, all good things must come to an end, but to cheer us up we had the image of the trip home the next day. The next morning came oh too soon as we piled back into the mini-bus, checking of course that we had Iwan!!!! Are journey was made more bearable by a good old pub lunch on the way home. Some of us got to see our lunch for a second, oh no third, no fourth time..didn't we Nett! With true commitment we roled up to training, having not yet been home. After two hours of training, (or sleeping didn't we Nett) we all went home for a much needed shower, food and bed.
