It sounds like the President's Cup final coming up on Tuesday at Caistor.
From memory I think that's the West Wold Evening League showpiece.
I've had a request to umpire but, unfortunately, will be working that evening.
That's a real shame as Col Butters has been pencilled in as the other official, and it would have given us the chance to chat over old matches from our playing days.
Big Col was a big hitter of a cricket ball - indeed, I'm struggling to think of many others who could give it as big a whack as he did.
We had some good contests with him not always, but usually, coming out on top.
I've seen him a few times since while we've both been watching matches at Caistor, but as he's a Grimsby area umpire (and also does Lincs premier games) we don't get to meet up in the middle.
