EPWORTH'S TERRIFIC TEAS

By Ann Boulton

Mention of Epworth in the Alliance takes me back to a game East Halton played (at that time at the ground in Epworth) at the start of one season. Teas were being provided for the first time by some members of a ladies' hockey team and they didn't know quite what they should give the cricketers. As a result, it was like a wedding buffet - sausage rolls, quiche, chicken bits, lots of sandwiches etc and loads of wonderful cakes. Laurence Blanshard had come along to watch and after the interval offered to do Epworth's scorebook with me doing East Halton's. We sat at the table with two huge pieces of gateau each which kept us going right through the second innings!
