Are Daily Walks With My Dog Necessary?

Are Daily Walks With My Dog Necessary?

April 15, 2020

This may seem like an easy question to answer, but it’s not always cut and dry.

Daily walks are great for you and your dog – you both get some needed exercise and get out in the fresh air. It’s great for their happiness and mental and physical health and provides the stimulation they need to keep any potential bad habits at bay. Like human kids, dogs can tend to get bored, and a bored dog can be a destructive dog.

So, what are the factors that you need to consider when taking your dog out for walks?

Age is a major factor when it comes to dogs. Younger dogs need more walks as smaller intervals while older dogs will only need a few walks a day. As a dog ages, their stamina starts to wane, so you’ll want to be careful how long you walk with your senior pooch. Dogs in their middle years can withstand longer walks, so make sure that you check out that park you’ve been wanting to visit.

The breed of dog that you have also played into how long those walks are. Smaller breeds like Chihuahuas and Yorkies don’t need to go on a long hike with you, but a quick jaunt around the neighborhood or down to the park and back should be just fine.

Now, if you have a Siberian Husky, Australian Shepherd, or any other hyperactive dog, then a run down to the park and some serious play with frisbees is in order. You’ll certainly want to make sure that you bring home Fritz pretty tired so he doesn’t chew up the couch or drive you nuts for more playtime.

The Bruno’s of the world like English Bulldogs, Basset Hounds, and Great Danes make for great strolling pals. A lazy walk around a lake or a stroll around a park is perfect for these low energy dogs. They generally tire faster than hyper mid-sized dogs and smaller energetic types and will cozy up to you on the couch to watch your favorite flick or show series.

Something else that a lot of people don’t consider is the time of year and the temperature outside. Frozen sidewalks and snow can wreak havoc on your dog’s paws, so make sure that they have the right protective gear on when you go out for a walk (Bella the Yorkie will probably need a parka and some booties). Making sure that their paws are healthy is always a must. The same goes for the summer. The summer heat can seriously heat up sidewalks and asphalt which can burn your puppies’ paws. During the summer months, it’s best to walk your puppy early in the morning or later in the evening. The other thing you can consider is to drive to a dog park where there is minimal contact with the hot ground.

Lastly, think about your dog’s health and potential allergies. Both of those could affect how long your walks are. So, create a daily routine with your pooch and you’ll both be quite happy with the exercise and bonding. Check out your local Petland for appropriate gear for walking your dog.

Liberty / Galbraith’s ‘Yakima Monster’

Liberty / Galbraith's 'Yakima Monster' handpull badge
Liberty / Galbraith's 'Yakima Monster' handpull badge

That right there is a real contender to win the Outstanding Achievement of Awesomeness in Tap Badge Design award.1 It’s fair to say the craft beer scene in our little nation punches well above its weight, but it’s worth also pausing to celebrate the easily-arguable notion we’re also rather spoiled in the design department.2 Beer’s a weird thing, art-assets-wise; it’s some peculiar mix of the bland, the offensively naff, the apparently-homemade, the fine-but-boring, the showy and overblown — with, at the top end, plenty of cleverly-done and extremely effective designs and occasional moments of pure freakin’ genius.3 Liberty’s main run is definitely of the clever-and-effective sort, and this comes from that final bracket of brilliance.

I’m a comic-book nerd from way back, and I just love how this takes the larger format of a pumpclip (compared to a tap badge) and crams the space full of a shambling horde of wonderfully classic-looking hideous beasts, who are familiar and yet not just copyright-infringingly lifted from somewhere else. If you were so inclined, you could stretch that into a nice metaphor for the beer itself, since — in this incarnation as the most-recent installment of Galbraith’s utterly-genius cask ale series — it’s assuringly recognisable and excitingly different at the same time. And you can enjoy that interplay from either direction, depending on whether your default position is closer to the world of handpulled pints in a nice quiet pub (making this nicely supercharged) or bigger and brasher U.S.-style hoppy pale ale (in which case, the low-carbonation delivery makes this one quite charmingly sedate).

The beer’s big, but it’s definitely a friendly giant — just like the brewer, if you were keen to needlessly pile on metaphors purely because they work. The booze is high — relative, particularly, to things usually served off the pump — and the hops are plentiful, but the way they’re put together makes the whole thing lush, fat and delicious. The fullness of it and the fruitiness of the flavours made me think of pineapple barley sugars — if such things exist; are the yellow ones intended to be pineapple? I can never quite tell — and it made for an incredibly satisfying pint on a lovely night at the pub. “Queen’s Birthday weekend”4 makes for a predictably-quieter-than-usual Friday evening in town and that, to me, is a marvellous thing. There was a veritable boatload of Liberty on tap in addition to this thing — which also existed in a cask-conditioned gravity-pour version, perched on the bartop.

I don’t have the kind of hyper-palate that found the cask and handpump versions massively different. That said, I only had a little sample of the former, which proved queue-inspiringly popular when it was tapped, though now I wish I’d taken the chance to side-by-side pints of the two. I was definitely at the bar in a celebratory rather than investigatory mood; my notes went largely neglected as I just enjoyed the company and the beer. The quieter-than-average night and the Liberty-packed taps upped the proportion of “beer people” in the room, and it was great — like an End-of-Week Bumper Edition of Tuesday’s long-standing Beer Geek Church. Jo seemed to be having a great time, and was definitely in fine form when George and I sat down with him (and Mike, from Tuatara) to record a podcast the next day.

The local craft beer community is fortunate to have Jo; he seems really generous with his time and his expertise (which includes wonderfully-minute details of brewing and engineering), and he’s possessed of a worryingly unique sense of humour. And the beer-drinking public is damn lucky to have his beers on the market. I can’t remember ever having one that seemed naff or wide of its target. There’s a very-credible rumour — though no official confirmation, yet — that there are soon to be much great numbers of Yakima Monsters roaming the world, with a vastly-more-voluminous contract brew coming up.

Yakima Monster was born, together with Yeastie Boys’ Motueka Monster, out of a nice little meta-competition run between their brewers alongside Malthouse’s long-running West Coast IPA Challenge. The two pit American- against locally-grown hops, and the latter has already been promoted to full-scaled production as ‘Digital IPA’.* That beer has a regular place in my cupboards and provided the perfect ‘occasion beer’ with which to mark my own nerdy observance of Alan Turing’s centenary. If I can readily stock my beer-stash with bottles of Yakima Monster, my house will be even more of a home.

* Correction, the next morning: As Joe (with an -e!) notes in the comments below, Digital IPA wasn’t originally Motueka Monster, it was Motueka Warrior — the Yeastie Boys half of their head-to-head from a different year’s IPA Challenge.

Original Diary entry: Liberty / Galbraith’s ‘Yakima Monster’ 1/6/12 6% on handpull, and a smidge from the cask on the bar, thanks to Steph. After a day in the Garage with Joe5 + Mike, now hanging with Hadyn6 + Narelle. Oodles of Liberty! It’s everywhere. So is Joe. This is lush. Not scary at all. Like pineapple barley sugars. Fat and delicious. Not a huge difference from the cask — just a little more apparent bitterness, maybe? It’s a quiet-ish evening (“Queen’s Birthday” weekend), but a lovely night at the pub. And suddenly there’s a Yakima Scarlet in front of me. Huzzah.

1: Which admittedly doesn’t yet exist, but should.
2: Thanks to the work of — among many others — Barry Hannah, Anton Hart, and the folks at Deflux.
3: Examples? Off the top of my head, per category: 1) The Peak beers or Stoke’s main range, 2) anything from Pumpclip Parade, and possibly things like Wanaka Beerworks’ ‘Lady’ and the Bennett’s beers, 3) Mussel Inn (though not, in that case, in a bad way; it suits them, charmingly-odd hippies that they are), 4) Sprig & Fern, maybe, 5) Moa, naturally — and 6) Three Boys, Renaissance, Yeastie Boys and Hallertau’s Main Range / Numbered Four, then 7) things like Garage Project’s ‘Day of the Dead’a and especially Hallertau’s ‘Heroic’ Range, i.e., the big 750ml bottles with the mock-classical relief art. I’ve thought about this quite a bit, and I honestly think ‘Stuntman’ might just be the Best Beer Label Ever, Anywhere; it’s gorgeous, classy, and understatedly hilarious at the same time.
— a: Again: disclosures, disclosures.
4: Scare-quotes made necessary by a) it not being the actual birthday of Elizabeth Alexandra Mary Saxe-Coburg-Gotha, and b) by me being the sort of Republican (in the philosophical / small-r / non-U.S. party political history sense) who’d rather not celebrate these things at all.
5: It wasn’t until I was writing up the podcast we recorded the next day that I checked around online and found that the preferred / consensus abbreviation for Joseph is, in this case, just “Jo”.
6: Hadyn’s got an uncommon-but-not-unheard-of spelling for his name, and I occasionally blank out on just how it goes. I’m rather pleased with the little trick I came up with, in my handwritten notes, to split the difference between my two best guesses.

10 thoughts on “Liberty / Galbraith’s ‘Yakima Monster’”

    1. It was quiet-er, at least. Compared to the same time on a usual Friday. And yeah, that place does get even louder. (They do have some sound-absorby stuff planned, which should help a whole bunch.)

  1. A great read as usual. May I lend a minor correction though? Yakima / Motueka Monster was the innaugural “head to head” with the Yeasties. The Yakima was awarded Silver at BrewNZ that year. It was in 2011 where the Warriors were born: 2 entirely different beers. It was the Motueka edition that spawned what is now Digital.

    I can also confirm that I have contract brewed Monster on a reasonable scale, however I’m unsure it’ll last too long… There was only enough Simcoe for one batch. It may only be a short reunion with my favourite beer.

    1. Ah, Digital is Warrior, not Monster? Oops. You guys are too prolific to keep track of easily. Or I should just take better notes.

      Excellent news about Big Batch Monster, though. Any idea of a release date? Hopefully it goes well enough to justify another contract-batch of something else Liberty. Looks like a good arrangement for everyone concerned!

  2. Cheers Phil… yeah – I’m quite pleased with the whole deal. Dominic has suggested we do a preview night on My birthday (Monday 13th August) at Hashigo. It seems like the perfect night to do this, however I’m unsure that I’ll be able to attend. I’m not sure it’d be fair to the partygoers if the brewer of the preview beer wasn’t in attendance. Otherwise, the beer will make it’s full public showing at Beervana at my little “self pour” stand. 500ml bottles of it will be available from around that time in (hopefully) all the usual outlets – and then some. The next contract iteration is as yet undecided… but it’ll be either Raven or Scarlet.

    1. Definitely! I’d put them in that simple-and-effective category. They’re unique, characterful, and certainly charming when they could’ve so easily just been twee.

Sean Couturier Talks Flyers Recent Surge, Second Line Chemistry, and Showdown with the Capitals

Photo Credit: Alex McIntyre

The Flyers are flying high right now. At the end of October, the Flyers were sitting at .500 with a record of 5-5-1. Since the start of November, they have yet to lose a game in regulation. Through six games, they are 5-0-1 and have earned 11 out of a possible 12 points. They carry a four game winning streak into Wednesday night’s game versus the Washington Capitals. Something fans aren’t used to seeing: they have outscored their opponents 6-0 in the first period in this streak and they’re 3-2 in shootouts on the season. That’s not too bad of a start now is it?

While it has all-in-all been a team effort, there have been a few individuals who have stepped up to push this team into the win column and keep them there. One of those guys is fan favorite and center of the Flyers’ current most effective line, Sean Couturier.

Through seventeen games with the Flyers this season, Couturier has registered 13 points (5G, 8A). While it was a bit of a slow start for the 26-year-old center, Couturier has been rolling as of late. He now has points in 6 of his last games tallying 8 points (3G, 5A) and has been a huge contribution to success in games overall.

Back on November 1st versus the New Jersey Devils, he attempted and executed what is commonly known as the “Forsberg move” to give the Flyers the lead in the shootout that later proved to be the winner after Carter Hart denied Devils forward Taylor Hall and sealed the deal.

Fast forward to this past Thursday’s game versus the Montreal Canadiens and Couturier was at it again. Not even a minute into overtime, Couturier snuck a shot past Carey Price using the defenseman as a screen to give the Flyers a 3-2 overtime win.

He wasn’t done there though. This past Saturday in Toronto, Couturier sealed another shootout victory for the Flyers when he juked out Maple Leafs goalie Frederik Andersen for yet another beauty in the shootout. Overall, Couturier is 2 for 3 in the shootout this season.

So what has attributed to the Flyers recent surge of late? According to Couturier, it’s all about starting off the game the right way.

“I think we’re starting the game really well”, said Couturier following practice. “We’re playing the right way; we’re structured. At the end of the day, we’re finding ways to get two points even if we get a little let down at one point but I think it’s just sticking together and believing and sticking to the structure”.

The Flyers second line continues to do damage

The Flyers second line is firing on all cylinders. A line made up of Oskar Lindblom, Sean Couturier, and Travis Konecny is one Alain Vigneault has decided to leave alone for the most part and for good reason. Night in and night out, these three guys go out and produce whether it be at even-strength or on the power play. In all situations, the line has combined for 46 points (21G, 25A).

Oskar Lindblom (LW): 14 pts (8G, 6A)

Sean Couturier (C): 13 pts (5G, 8A)

Travis Konecny (RW): 19 pts (8G, 11A)

On the power play alone, they’ve combined for 14 points (6G, 8A) making the second power play unit just as dangerous as the first. Oskar Lindblom leads the way with three goals on the man advantage.

Couturier and Lindblom play in all situations. Whether it be at even strength, on the powerplay, or shorthanded, they’re out there. Konecny on the other hand rarely sees time when the Flyers are down a man. However, he’s a force to be reckoned with at 5-on-5 and on the powerplay.

At this point, it’s no longer fair to consider it the “second line,” when they produce at the rate that the top line should.

“I think each guy brings something to the line different”, said Couturier. “I mean I try to be a responsible two-hundred-foot player. Oskar is just a really smart player that wins a lot of board battles and sees the ice really well and TK (Travis Konecny), I mean he’s got a lot of speed. He brings speed to our line and some skill and I think it’s just, you know, just a little bit of everything coming together. But what I like about our line is I guess we’re playing the right way. We’re not cheating for offense. We’re playing responsible hockey. I mean, Oskar’s always kind of been that way. TK I feel he’s really matured in his game you know, making right decisions at the right time and I think you can you know, see the difference in his production and his overall game”.

Showdown with the Capitals

On Wednesday night, the Flyers will face off against Alex Ovechkin and the Washington Capitals at the Wells Fargo Center. This will be the first of four meetings between these two teams this season and the first of two that will take place in South Philadelphia.

The Capitals six game win streak was snapped Monday night as the Arizona Coyotes defeated Washington by a final score of 4-3 in a shootout . They now sit at 13-2-4 but still remain at the top of the Metropolitan Division. The Flyers will have their hands full when these two teams go to battle tomorrow night. Somehow, some way, the Flyers will have to match the intensity level of their division rival and a familiar face, Radko Gudas.

“I guess be ready from the start” said Couturier. ” They’re going to come at us. They’re big, they’re fast, they’re skilled. We’ll have to be ready to win a lot of battles and be ready to skate and try to limit their time and space to those skilled players”.

Slowing down one of the greats in Alex Ovechkin is a whole other story. In 53 career games played versus the Flyers, Ovechkin has registered 59 points (34G, 25A). However, last season, Ovechkin tallied only 4 points (1G, 3A) in four games against the Flyers. Either way, he’s someone to watch out for at all times when out on the ice. Couturier will likely be tasked with shutting him down for a good portion of the game.

Puck Drop is set for 7:30 PM from the Wells Fargo Center.

Astronomers measure weight of galaxies, expansion of universe

Astronomers at the University of British Columbia have collaborated with international researchers to calculate the precise mass of the Milky Way and Andromeda galaxies, dispelling the notion that the two galaxies have similar masses.

While it was previously thought that the two weighed the same because of their similar size and structure, researchers found that neighboring Andromeda is about twice as heavy as our own Milky Way.

"Most of the weight of these galaxies is present in the form of invisible ," says Yin-Zhe Ma, a postdoctoral fellow in the Department of Physics and Astronomy, adding that Andromeda has almost twice as much dark matter as the Milky Way.

"We don't know much about dark matter so this discovery means we'll get a chance to study it from within our own galaxy."

Ma and his colleagues were also able to measure the expansion of the universe by observing the motion of smaller "satellite galaxies" that orbit the Milky Way and Andromeda. Previous research used cosmic microwave radiation to measure the expansion of the universe from a great distance.

"It was surprising that we could see expansion happening from within our own local group of galaxies that is consistent with expansion on a universal scale," says Ma. "This is the first time we've captured evidence that cosmic expansion is taking place so close to us."

Researchers hope to model the dark matter in our galaxy to better understand the interaction between dark matter and gravity.

Researchers built computer models to simulate the two galaxies as a dumbbell structure in an expanding universe. The model showed the movement of small satellite galaxies around the larger galaxies. They measured the speed, position and motion of these to infer the structure and mass of the Milky Way and Andromeda.

The study, a collaboration between the University of British Columbia, the University of Edinburgh, Carnegie Mellon University and NRC Herzberg Institute of Astrophysics, was published in Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society.

It seems smart that the grave period for finer muscle management and timing, which naturally follow gross-motor improvement, can be open from shortly after birth to about age nine. This data has sturdy inferences for developing the primary circuits needed for studying skills that need a excessive degree of physical deftness, such as playing a musical instrument or performing exact guide operations. There’s also speculation that the general window of alternative for many behavioral functions narrows significantly round age 10.

The Damphir and the Dumbkopf: Bloodrayne Review

Yay Island Guests it’s time for everyone’s favourite director again! Uwe Boll! Where Postal made me hate him as it was one of the worst movies I’ve EVER seen, I had high hopes that this one would at least be better.  Then I found out that 2005’s Bloodrayne fairly commonly is seen as Uwe Boll’s WORST movie. Where Postal just proved Uwe Boll is a horrible person.. this one taught me that Uwe Boll is a horrible writer as well. The greatest mystery to me is not the Loch Ness monster, it is how Uwe Boll can get well known names in his movie… and there are quite a few of them .. in Bloodrayne..
As Michelle Rodrigeuez with her super fake british accent would say in this movie… it was bloody awful. This post will spoil the entire movie as we will need it to unearth it’s flaws.. but trust me.. it is not relevant to your enjoyment of this film.

Writing Rule Number 1: Every Story Needs A Setting

Lord of the Rings is set in Middle Earth in the third era or something.  Star Wars is set a long time ago in a galaxy far far away. Rampage is set in modern day Chicago.. and Bloodrayne isn’t set anywhere. We start in an undefined kingdom in an undefined timepiece and we do not know if this is our world or some magical world. Only the THIRD movie in this series would reveal  that it is set on earth at least with the subtitle Bloodrayne Thirdreich. The THIRD movie has a setting.. this one not so much!  Now you may argue that it does , it’s probably the dark-ages as black powder from China is new and unknown and everyone talks with a British accent except for Michael Madsen and Matthew Davis, who both play vampire hunters.. with american accents.. .. before america was even born. But heck that is the least of the consistency errors in this movie! This movie doesn’t do world-building at all.

The movie opens with Michael Madsen and his crew riding in a town, they are looking for someone or something, the local barkeep might have some answers when Davis character Sebastian spots a tavern goer not having a reflection and stabs him, everyone takes this very it seems we have a world where vampires are very common and hunters as well. That could be cool…the next scene we are introduced to Rayne, she is a captive at a circus where she is used as a freak show, where they make bank on showing the monstrosity known as vampires to the world…..uhm.. but did the last scene not show the world accepts them as common? Also why are vampires allergic to plain  water… I would not mind but later they go trough lengths to get holy water..uh oh.. its going to be THAT type of movie?

A scene later Rayne is raped..cause Uwe Boll thinks women are equal to condoms just something to hang Woody Woodpecker in, but she escapes, in a weird mix between a flash forward that through cinematography reads as a dream or flashback. They add in some nausea inducing screen smears and we are in the next scene, the vamp hunters now are in the camp, Rayne went on a rampage and killed those who wronged her and bit her friend on without explaining to the circus troupe the hunters  start beheading their dead and murdering those who have been bitten. Of course there is no reaction from the carnies whatsoever because to them vampires are common now! Jeesz Uwe cant even be consistent with this on the same group of characters! And I am only 10 minutes in. Then we see Rayne killing a vampire by just stabbing and slashing her?! So why stab that other guy in the heart with a stake?!…Oh.. this rule isn’t gonna be consistent right?! ..That’s right!

Writing Rule Number 2:  Every story should happen for a reason

We get the backstory of Rayne told soon after, she is a Damphir a half human half Vampire that can wear crosses and feed on vampires. She seduces a female vampire, who from being into guys completely abandons her male prey to get killed by Rayne allowing herself to be bitten and drained in seconds. First of all.. if you had a sure thing.. why trade it in? Second for Rayne to seduce the woman and assume she is into women as well is quite a stretch whenever this movie is set and third, the woman is a vampire! Surely she’d be aiming at Rayne’s neck not expose hers for some cheap thrills? She was hunting why turn her into just a skank looking for some hot woman on woman action?! Because Uwe Boll doesn’t understand the difference between a woman and a sextoy thats why! Anyway.. the vampire is dead now from a two second bite..stupid but more movies do that. A Roma fortune teller shows up and sees this and tells Rayne to follow her and trough tarot her backstory is told. Rayne’s father Kagan played by Ben Kingsley raped her mother and later to kill his daughter from said rape. Since he is an evil vampire he wants to be immortal… or more immortal?  For this he needs 3 items called the talisman and with it he can rule the world… also he nearly destroyed everyone who can resist him already and actually manages to dispose of every organisation oposing him during the movie BEFORE he gets any relics…so had he not done the whole plot thing.. he would have won Why is he looking for these?

Rayne must find these things to stop him, why he hunts for these relics now and not when she was little? Who knows?!It would have made sense if he searched for the relics while his enemies were at full strength but now there is only a single cell left! Okay he didn’t know where they were. No one does, so the fortune teller obviously just tells Rayne the exact location of one With these artefacts Kagan may be able to rule the world and become immortal..which he already of them just allows him to take a bath..another would allow him to wear a cross around his neck….. so these artifacts sounds REALLY underpowered., so if Rayne wants to save the world.. she has to find these artifacts before he does. Regardless Rayne tells the Roma lady “No I do not care about the world .. I just want revenge”. Then she goes out to find these artefacts.

The first one is guarded by a bunch of monks. Who immediately believe a woman of healthy colour, no damaged clothes and carrying two huge swords indeed lost her family on her road and is so sick and weak that she needs shelter. In a world where vampires are established to be super common(sometimes). Mind you these monks protect a relic from vampires! So without a doubt they invite this Vampire into their monastery and allow her to kill their molten faced guard.. who for no reason at all has a face like that.. He can wield a big giant fake hammer.. and again for no reason he swaps that out for a spiked club… Both are bludgeoning weapons and both are used in the exact same way.. the only reason the creature swaps is so Rayne could feasibly lift it to bash it’s face in. I am willing to believe these monks don’t turn away a plea for help..but come one Uwe! These monks protect the relic against vampires..and when a warrior woman without a scratch on her body shows up at night they just allow her to roam into their reliquary? Jeesz.. also why is there one monster monk?! It makes NO sense!

His necklace unlocks a secret passage because..of course it does.. and Rayne finds a room that is trapped by the Looney Tunes.. like seriously its that exaggerated. THink hexagonal tiles and across all lines sawblades are fired faster than your eye can track. I mean that literally I could not keep up with the trap visually.. so of course she leaps trough it seeing a discover the relic is an eye. When she takes this eye.. which allegedly makes her more immortal.. she activates the final trap. Now before we move on from here let me explain how these relics work. There are A Rib, an Eye and A heart.  One makes you immune to sunlight, one makes you immune to the holy stuff and one makes you immune to water. So I would assume the eye would make you immune to sunlight, cause blinding light etc.. the heart against holy stuff cause you know heart/love goodness god etc.  And why a rib makes you immune to water would be a bit weird.. but a rib kinda looks like a boat?!

But no.. the eye makes her immune to water. The heart makes you immune to sun and the rib lets you resist holy stuff talk about random! Now let’s play a game! How well can Uwe Boll Write! I am gonna write a scenario Uwe Boll has set up.. and then you have to think like him.. for an awfull solution to the problem. Here we go : So a Damphir/Vampire just stole that item that can make them immune to the harmful water… Oh no! The vampire can take a bath now.. and travel across a lake apparently..cause they would normally not be able to do that either. What trap do you design to stop them after gaining Water Immunity?! Mind you.. you already fired 20 cartoon sawblades at them and it missed. … How would Uwe Boll write the NEXT trap. To stop an even stronger vampire! …………….. If you thought that stopping someone with water immunity through a water trap would be the way to further this story… you are correct! The room fills up with water..about ankle deep. But that is not all.. there is a trial after that.. a monk politely tells her off! Also fun little detail NONE of these monks wear the same cross around their neck… which just feels stupid. They are an ORDER..

So for some reason, Ben Kingsley Vampire who never knew his daughter was alive.. now knows she is alive and exactly where she is .. and has a guy from his castle follow her..which means riding out with a battalion of dark knights.. obviously they arrive at the EXACT time that Rayne finished the trial.. despite not having searched for her.. they just go to the right location.. fight some monks and if they do not want to tell where the eye is .. they kill them..including the last guy who could possibly know. This of course lets the bad guy realise it is Rayne who has the talisman so he captures her. Because..otherwise they are stuck and the plot won’t further. Obviously the Bad Guy actor knows Rayne has the eye! He has the script! They bring her to Meatloaf Vampire who can offer them shelter for the night but he wants to add her to his harem.. because 14 boobs are not enough. The henchmen guy doesn’t agree which sends Meatloaf in a very over acting rage. Then the vampire hunters.. two of them.. come in after having fought off dozens of vampires and the henchman guy..decides to flee…..later he would demonstrate he could take both of them at full strength fighting them simultaneously.

Meatloaf being a vampire of course chose the room with windows that have the sun shining in from 4 different directions and while Rayne perfectly rolls in a blanket four beams poof Meatloaf vampire away.  Man.. the price of that house with every side facing the south (or west)  must have been hella expensive. Also… dear Mister Boll… that is not how Sunlight works. It’s a beam.. You can never have four perfect beams of lights from all directions.. heck with one direction it is even flat out impossible whatsoever. Why am I even surprised by this though! Stuff doesn’t happen in this world because it makes sense in the context of a world. Things happen because Uwe Boll thinks it’s cool..or because he feels he needs to proof women are all floozies and addicted to male genitalia..or female ones.

Writing Rule Number 3: Give your characters relevant development.

So after that the hunters take in Rayne and train her as one of their own… Sebastian doesn’t trust her too much and she is very mean to them.. because she has suffered so much!  She explains her backstory…which by the way she also told the monks so this is the third time we see that story in flashbacks and it is also depicted in art in the opening credits I think.. so this story .. He raped my mother and killed her.. is now VERY well known.  She tells no one else could possibly feel what she feels. Sebastian tells her his parents both turned vampire and he saw hunters kill them right before his eyes.. as they saved him as his parents were about to kill him.  I lost both my parents, he says!…This of course triggers the romance scene and Rayne and Sebastian begin to fuck like animals against a cage… because both of them had dead parents… here I thought the Martha from Batman versus Superman  thing was kinda lame! Boll did it first and worse though.

After that they are in love , which is shown by the fact that they smile at each other cutely once or twice.. other than a few spars together with the worst looking swords you have ever seen in a movie.. and I am not kidding.. There are high school plays that have better looking swords and no I am not overreacting. I shown these pictures to some weapon buffs and some who barely saw a movie and both set this was the fakest stuff they had ever seen. Sebastian is tagged out by Katarin, who is the character played by Michelle Rodriguez and has a very weird british accent. She seems friendly to Rayne at first but then shows her narrow mind. Also her father is a vampire..that is her backstory. He wants to get back in touch with her as they care for each other…so clearly she totally isn’t going to betray the group and have a fight with Rayne right?! Nah..

Actually no.. set up for a destined fight! Hah! No time for that plots gotta happen! Katarin betray sthe group almost immediately after this scene and that sword fight they kinda hinted at happening never does . Katarin betrays the order and it gets slaughtered. Her reason.. she doesn’t believe in Vladimir anymore and doesn’t want him to make everyone rush into their death. So obviously she kills everyone! This happens Rayne Sebastian and Vladimir are fetching weapons because.. one of Raynes blades broke.. and they have to go to a few hoops to get two crates of weapons. Why is this a task that needs to be done by the leader of the order?! Also there are SOOOO many weapons in the order already. They just did this for two black powder grenades and Raynes akwards swords! Why did they go?! Well so that Katarin can betray them of course. It turns out she has the third talisman as well. it was always in the fort hidden underwater. How lucky Rayne got the water immunity earlier. Why she never told anyone this when she still trusted her leader.. who knows! It’s never explained. Oh also Ben Kingsley found the second talisman of screen somewhere. Each time he is shown on screen we are shown the exterior of his castle first with a lightning sound effect.. it’s basically the same as lord Zed is introduced in power rangers.. so Sorry I forgot.. I did not take it seriously enough. Katarin and Rayne wrestle in the water.. because… it’s an Uwe Boll Movie and women have to mud wrestle. Michelle Rodriguez’s character is finished off without any honour and in a very lame splashy way. As we move towards the finale of this movie.

Writing Rule Number 4: An Ending should feel earned and in line with the story!

Rayne of course now knows where her father lives.. while she was looking for him earlier.. because everyone instantly gains knowledge they did not have before as soon as the plot requires it. And no.. she did not learn this from Vladimir or Sebastian.. she seperated from them! Knowledge directly being gained from the script is the most consistent thing in this movie.. Now to stop Kagan she lets herself be captured and hands him an artefact..which in fact is an empty box like all movies. One that not one but 4 seperate people fail to check before it is time for some sort of ritual. Oh yeah this ritual since Rayne absorbed one relic…but secretly two.. it will allow Kagan to remove these parts of her. Even though no one ever obtained these before and originally they were part of a very hard to kill vampire. There is no way this ritual should exist let alone that Kagan should know about it .. but the plot would strand without it so now he knows!

Rayne is disarmed and put in a prison! But no worries Sebastian and Vladimir come rushing in and ..get themselves captured. Which leads to Rayne being strapped to an altar as the ritual starts. This must have been part of her original plan..even if she did not know Vladirmir and Sebastian would come.. in fact.. she should not know or assume this.. but had they not been here.. this plan would have surely killed Rayne.. without a fighting chance. So why did she settle for it? By now you should know.. her actress read the plot. In the fakest Guard My Cellmate has vanished act, which no real person would belief.. heck which 90% of fictional characters would not believe, except for Looney Tunes Villains and Uwe Boll characters, the two guys are freed and manage to get to the altar to free Rayne . A fight breaks out and  Vladimir and Sebastian now effortlessly kill the soldiers that stopped them before also effortlessly I might add .. but it’s different not because now the soldiers are aided by some more elite troops….uhm you might have gotten that reversed Uwe. Ben Kingsly gets the lamest kill in the movie.. as he impales Vladimir who is held by two vampires .. simply walking into him. Of course no one reacts to his death.. not even Vladimir himself. Sebastian gets mortally wounded.. with again.. no one  reacting to hit.. but by holding the plastic stick close to Hencheman’s neck.. his neck  explodes and henchman is killed instantly as Sebastian slowly fades away. There is an extreme amount of blood in this fight. Everyone is equipd with red water balloons and squirty devices.

Rayne and her father face off and it is revealed Rayne absorbed the heart. Shocker!. Ben Kingsley calls Rayne an ungratefull bitch..which makes perfect sense, such elegant dialogue.. he given her so much to be grateful for.. nearly sacrifiing her.. killing her only friends, murdering and raping her mother and leading her to lead a cursed existance as a Damphir.  What not to be thankful for. Well she is a women.. in a Uwe Boll movie so she must be grateful for sprouting of the seeds of a man I guess.  She isn’t though and manages to kill him.. after a super lame fight scene that had more dialogue that  most of the movie even. Riveting combat! Kegan dies.. in a very weird effect..again that only the vampire in the beginning mimicked.. no other vampire died like that. I was shocked to see he had Pigtails all along!

Rayne goes to her fuckbuddy and is so upset that he is also passing away and that he doesn’t want to be a vampire that she sits in Kagan’s  throne and thinks about blood..seemingly turning evil.. and with that.. we end this  atrocity..

I had my way of fun with this flick! I was amused in analysing it..but do not misunderstand This movie was bad! It made no sense anywhere.. , the effects were super lame, the writing was non existent and how the heck did all these actors agree to this?! What the heck is wrong with people?! I think Uwe boll might be some sort of Incubus! THis movie made it very clear to me.. while he can remember like 20 video game titles.. and can befriend movie actors.. he can’t do anything else! Stay away from this one! Please! If you like me can enjoy a bad movie it might be fun.. but Uwe Boll doesn’t do the “so bad that it’s good” thing. It feels to lazy for that. It doesn’t take itself seriously enough.. yet also takes itself seriously enough for it to never be clever or witty about it’s bad or shitty choices. While this movie made me less angry than Postal did.. this one clearly shows less competence as a fill maker. So once again even though I really hoped ot only give this grade once.. this movie is …….

PS all of this had very little to do with the actual video game!

Now I am sure that next week there will be a more competent film waiting for me… I might not be strong enough to pick up the sequel just yet…then again it can hardly be any worse! Now that I have a security guard I am not even that afraid for Mister Boll. If he challenges me to a fight Indigo said he would fight in my stead! I would still love to see mister Boll make a Fortnite movie… as long as I do not have to see it! That would be so bad it would probably kill me.. then again… maybe two negatives cancel each other out!

  1. This is concerning on mister Boll can’t make good video game movies….. And that his best movie is Rampage (not the one you reviewed) which tells about a psychopathic mass murderer going on a killing spree

  2. Pinkie you deserve a blog award of some kind for this post. To take a really terrible movie and turn it into something amusing and entertaining to read. That takes someone with a real flair for writing. Oh by the way you wouldn’t have to worry about Uwe Boll challenging you to a fight over a bad review of his movie. If on the other hand you where critical of his restaurants then the gloves are on 😛

  3. So after reading this I’m left wondering if you liked this movie? I mean it doesn’t point it out in any way in this review, so maybe that’s something you should work on? 🤔🤔🤔 Yes…if it wasn’t already clear…I’m being totally sarcastic😂 I agree with comment above, this was a very entertaining read. After you said last week that this would be a very negative review, you weren’t kidding…that said…you still made it into something positive because it was highly enjoyable! I definitely hope your next game to movie film will be better though. I’ve seen the film as well years ago, and had the same thoughts as you for it this was complete Bollshit😂😂 Great post!

  4. I do think that one can make a good/decent video-game based movie, but it mostly depends on if the source material would lend itself well to such a translation. Going from a non-interactive medium to an interactive one is comparatively easy because you’re adding something. It generally isn’t a two-way street, however, as you can imply story beats through the gameplay, which would be nigh-impossible to recreate on the silver screen. In those cases, it would be like watching someone else a play game while refusing to hand you the controller.

    Either way, considering that surprisingly few creators grasp this concept now, it’s not terribly surprising that 2000s-era Uwe Boll wouldn’t either. I’ve only seen a video review of this film, but it definitely lives up (down?) to what you’re saying here. I can understand wanting to deviate if it means avoiding the aforementioned discrepancy, but if he didn’t even try to relate it to the games, one wonder what the point is – aside from banking off the name alone.

    1. While I do agree, with you that it is hard to adapt video games to movie I think movies like Dragon Quest Your Story, Detective Pikachu and Sonic were able to pull it off pretty well. It is true that one can not adapt the gameplay.. as Assassins Creed tought us that as a movie.. but I do not think that is what this movie really tries to do? Maybe with the extreme blood it is game-like. I do feel this is mostly a video game adaptation in name.

      Budget Wise Uwe Boll is a bit weird as well.. he stands occused of laundering movie making money.. having higher budgets than what a movie costs so I avoid comparing budget versus what I saw.. working within a budget is a skill of it’s own. I still rather see something omitted than done poorly and Uwe Boll did not do that properly.

      Despite that it is a very hard game to adapt I think fundamentally there is to much wrong with the world building of this movie. You can see things are not based on the game as nothing here makes actual sense.

      I mean Bloodrayne 1 the game was from 1933 to 1983 which is weird since this is set in the 1700’s. Kagan is still her father and the monster hunter society exists..but real Rayne kills several people claiming but never proven they are vampires, she is at odds with the law. She becomes more of a super natural assassin/bounty hunter of sorts trough the passage of time. I get the mission based structure doesn’t work for a movie but the 200 year time shift is odd to say the least.. especially since eventually he does end up using the correct time period in the third movie.

      1. That’s true, though what I think helped those adaptations is that both franchises had provably worked in non-interactive mediums in the past, so the creators thereof weren’t going into their projects blind. Sonic translates well because he’s basically a superhero whereas Pokémon built up a world interesting enough that stories outside of the battles the games rely on could be told. Then again, the battles themselves translate well to non-interactive mediums due to the large variety of powers Pokémon wield and the writers could do things not possible in the games such as incorporate the environment into the fights.

        With Bloodrayne, it doesn’t even sound like they tried to make it work.

  5. You deserve an award for watching this thing. This video game is the only one I cannot stand to watch hubby play. I make him turn off the sound too because the slurping just kills me. Kudos for making me laugh with the review though!

Tissue Issues and Pinhole Surgical Technique (PST)

Pinhole Surgical Technique

What kind of issues do you have with tissues? Who didn’t replace the roll of bathroom tissue? Do you need a facial tissue? Those situations create mild discomfort, but in this case, our Placerville dentists are concerned about the tissue in your mouth – gum tissue. As we get older, our gums recede from our teeth, often exposing the roots. This happens even when we’re younger due to poor oral hygiene, bad eating habits, drug use, and aggressive toothbrushing or lip piercings. Since roots are softer and more vulnerable than teeth, bacteria in the mouth may cause decay at exposed roots, and eventually tooth loss. It’s important to get the gumline back up on the teeth for root protection – not to mention a better smile. So how do we get the gums back on the teeth?

Until recently, the only way to resolve receding gum tissue was with tissue grafting. This procedure involves cutting out tissue from your mouth, usually the roof, and stitching it onto the receding gums around two or three teeth. After two or three weeks of uncomfortable healing with stitches and cuts in the patient’s mouth (imagine what a pizza burn feels like and you get the idea), the next area is treated. This could happen several times, going on for months before the procedure is totally complete. Some patients choose to endure the risks of receding gums instead of going through this procedure.

Receding Gums Addressed

To better serve the Placerville community, Dr. Cheema is certified for a relatively new and improved gum restoration procedure. It’s called the Pinhole Surgical Technique, or PST. Dr. John Chao of Los Angeles, California invented this procedure.

PST avoids cutting and stiches by creating a tiny ‘pinhole’ in the gumline instead. This small wound heals by itself within days. Using a special tool, Dr. Cheema then repositions the gum tissue back where it needs to be, using the pinhole. Since gum tissue is soft and elastic, it responds very well to this repositioning. Collagen strips reinforce the gums in their new position and are eventually absorbed by the body. Instead of only two or three teeth at a time, PST can resolve all receding gum issues in the same session, and the procedure takes less than an hour. When most patients check the mirror on the way out, they see immediate improvement in their gumline and their smile. Healing is usually complete in a matter of weeks.

PST has plenty of benefits. The procedure does not cut up parts of your mouth, causing damage that needs to heal. Since the procedure requires few, if any, stiches in your gums, you won’t find yourself exploring them with your tongue or limiting your diet. Many patients report very little pain or discomfort with PST. Not only is the duration of the procedure much shorter than tissue grafting, but also recovery time is also much less.

Thanks to the Pinhole Surgery Technique, receding gum tissue no longer needs to be an issue. However, if you have any additional questions or concerns, we’d be glad to discuss them and help you determine if this technique will improve your oral health. Please call us or schedule an appointment.

Interest Rate Increases – Where will it end?

Last weeks decision by the Reserve Bank to raise interest rates by a further 25 basis points has been met with mixed reaction. First Home buyers and low income households will feel the pinch the most while other parts of the market aren’t as likely to be affected – those who have budgeted prudently (or at least those who have taken our advice) will have built a more normal rate of mortgage payments into their financial plans and investors are probably thankful for the rate rise as it means less competition in the market place for relatively scarce real estate stock.

If the financial markets are anything to go by, the tightening cycle of interest rate rises has some way to go. As can be deduced from our interest rate chart by February next year financial markets are suggesting the cash rate will be at 4.0% and by June about 4.75%. If banks move in line with the cash rate, this means the average standard variable rate will be about 6.8% in February and 7.55% in June. A long way from where we were a couple of months ago.

Last 10 years Variable Mortgage RateHowever, in the interests of relativity as the graph below from RP Data shows the average mortgage rate over the last 10 years has been 7.25% which highlights the fact that mortgage rates are still well below average and are likely to remain so well into 2010.

Can dogs eat mango? If Yes, How

Many dogs enjoy fruit, but not all fruits are healthy for them. Some of them are even poisonous. If you’re like most dog owners, you’ve undoubtedly asked at least once, “Can my dog eat this?”

Mangos may be a nutritious and enjoyable alternative treat for your dog, but they do take some preparation.

Mangoes are especially healthy for dogs since they contain only a little quantity of naturally occurring acid, which your dog’s stomach can tolerate.

They do, however, contain a high concentration of naturally occurring fruit sugar, which can contribute to obesity if consumed in large quantities, and should be consumed in moderation.

Mango is a wonderful, sweet fruit that is enjoyed by people all around the world. And, as with everything tasty and enjoyable, this naturally implies that one of the most important inquiries most pet parents have is, “Can my dog have some, too?”

Can Dogs eat Mango?

Yes, your dog is allowed to eat mango. They’re a good source of vitamins, but you have to be careful about which parts of the fruit you serve and how much of them you serve.

 However, there are a few stipulations.

In an ideal world, you’d offer your pet high-quality pet food that meets all of their nutritional requirements straight away. Mangos, on the other hand, are high in fiber and vitamin A, C, E, and B6, are making them a healthy snack alternative to typical dog biscuits.

Anything with a higher fiber content is going to be a smart snack choice because it will make your dog feel more full, which will help keep weight down.

Furthermore, because mangos are on the sweeter end of the fruit range, animals tend to like them, making them a convenient treat from time to time.

Can My Dog Eat the Whole Mango?

Rather than chucking a full fruit at Fido and calling it a day, you’ll want to perform some preliminary work.

The most serious health risk associated with mangos is due to human mistakes. Because ripe mangoes are mushy, owners may underestimate how big a slice their dogs can eat, putting them at risk of choking. Just make sure your mango is properly sliced up, and your dog could enjoy this sweet treat as well.

Another source of anxiety in the pit, which is understandable.

You’ll want to get rid of the pit because it’ll be the largest choking threat.

The pits of mangoes are technically edible. However, since they are so rough, dogs may attempt to swallow excessively large portions without chewing correctly, resulting in obstructions.

If your dog eats a piece of mango pit, there’s a good chance it will pass through his system unharmed. However, for a few days, keep an eye on your dog and note any changes in appetite or potty habits, and take them to the vet if anything seems out of the ordinary.

In addition to the pit, mango skin can be a choking hazard, particularly if the mango is under-ripe since the peel can be rough and slick enough to go down a dog’s throat before the pit.

Consult your veterinarian before introducing new food to your pet. Your dog’s veterinarian may advise you on how many mangoes he should eat and how often you should offer it to him.

When are Mangoes Bad for Dogs?

Not all components of mango are beneficial for your dog, despite the fact that they are considered a safe and nutritious treat. Although the skin is technically edible, some dogs may have difficulty digesting it. Mango pits are choking hazards and can cause intestinal blockages if eaten. Cyanide, which is harmful to dogs, is also present in the pit.

Aside from these dangers, fruits like mangoes are high in fiber, which most canines aren’t used to. As a result, your dog may get gastrointestinal problems or diarrhea. If he consumes sweet fruits too frequently, he may get tooth rot.

“To prevent giving too much fruit, it’s a good idea to provide various types of treats on different days,” says Purina Senior Nutritionist Jan Dempsey. This has the added benefit of keeping your dog curious about what’s next!”
How to Serve Mango for Dogs

Consult your veterinarian before giving mango to your dog. They can tell you how much and how often you can give him.

Before offering your dog any mango, peel it and remove the pit. You may chop the fruit into smaller bits for smaller dogs, but the mushy flesh is simple to consume for larger breeds. Frozen mango, in addition to serving it fresh, is a fun and delightful treat, especially during the summer.

Keep Treats to a Minimum

Dempsey suggests following the 90/10 rule when giving your dog anything other than his normal food: any treats, no matter how nutritious, should only account for 10% of your dog’s daily calorie intake. The remaining 90% should come from his dog’s food.

Before giving your dog any new human food, consult your veterinarian. This guarantees that your dog doesn’t consume anything harmful and that he gets the right amount of food. Experts have also answered concerns regarding other fruits, vegetables, and other foods, in addition to “Can dog eat mangoes?”

Mangoes may be given to your dog as a tasty treat on their own or as part of a meal. Place some ripe mango flesh in a small container with water and freeze overnight on hot days. Your dog will enjoy licking this goodie while also cooling down!

Note: Mangoes that have gone bad should never be fed to your dog. Ethanol (alcohol) is produced by rotten fruit and is particularly poisonous to dogs. Vomiting, tremors, and seizures are symptoms of alcoholism poisoning in dogs, and they require immediate veterinary attention.

Key Takeaways

  1. Mango may be eaten by dogs as a special treat if the skin and pit are removed.
  2. A mango is healthy in moderation, it should only be given to dogs in small amounts to avoid obesity and gastrointestinal problems.
  3. Always be with your veterinarian before adding new items to your dog’s diet to ensure that they are safe.

I hope this article was helpful. I would like to hear from you. So, let me know if you have any questions about whether you can serve your dog with mango or not.

Ploughmans CC vs Middxstriker CC (Home) Sun 20th June 2021

Match report

The year of 1984 saw the great Dean Jones debut for Australia in the West Indies, that same year England toured India under David Gower and the great Chris Cowdrey made his debut.

That same year Chris Roden-Smith entered the world, little did his parents know some 37 years later he would be debuting for the greatest cricket club in the world – they do say fast bowlers are like a good bottle of red wine.

We all arrived at The Hollies pumped for a game of cricket but with some doubt over the weather and if we would get a full game in. Grant won the toss and elected to bowl, there was going to be no other choice given the wicket was still soft underfoot.

After Greg and Chris marked out their run ups, Greg gave Chris the honours to start the proceedings for his very first game for Ploughman, hitting his stride his first over was 0-4, which was a tidy start.

His partner in crime Greg Willis opened from the other end and the Middxstricker opening batsman made their intentions clear with hitting two fours in the second over, not even having a sighter or playing themselves in.

The carnage started in Chris’ second over, where he bowled the opening batsman around his legs after setting him up beautifully with some late outswing bowling, dragging the batsman across to out side off stump he then sent the straight one down and made the batsman look very silly and this was only the 14thball of their innings.

Chris was hitting all the right areas and causing the new batsman issues and then he managed to take a caught and bowled that saw a great diving catch to his right just inches off the ground.

With the score on 2-16 after four overs we knew we were on top, which then saw the batting team put their shots away as Chris bowled 3 consecutive maidens and Greg keeping it tight at his end and picking up a brilliant bowled wicket hitting middle stump, this saw the score on 3-22 after 12 overs.

Trent and Jo were introduced into the attack with Jo having figures of 0-2 after 3 overs he is clearly obsessed about line and length, meanwhile at the other end Trent struggled with his line and length and was being hit to all parts of the ground until in his fourth over, when he picked up the prize wicket of their number four batsman who had been doing all the damage with a brilliant catch taken by Hector at Long On.

Jo continued to keep it tight and was very unlucky not to have picked up wickets due to the team putting a few catches down and Greg nearly losing a digit at first slip.

With the score on 4-76 at drinks, we knew we had to come back out and continue to fight as the batsman were not going to die wondering and continued to play their big shots around the ground

Spin wizard Niraj celebrating his 50th match for Ploughman and Mo were introduced to the attack and bamboozle the batsman they did, with Niraj keeping it very tight at his end and unlucky not to have picked up wickets, meanwhile Mo was getting great flight above the eyeline enticing the batsman to go the aerial route which saw a great catch taken by Greg as well as Paddy picking up a stumping. We ended up bowling them out in the 39th over.

Clearly scoring is not their strong point, with the bowling adding up to 164 the batting adding up to 152 and then when you include the byes and leg byes into the bowling adding up to 171. Both skippers agreed that it was 164 to win.

Iskander and Jo opened the batting seeing off the opening bowlers and playing them selves in, putting on 50 for the fist wicket. This was one of the best opening partnerships I’ve seen on a Sunday given how tough the wicket was to bat on, the opposition opening bowlers not taking any wickets although they bowled a very tight spell and full credit to Iskandar and Jo with not throwing their wickets away.

There had not been any rain, although Jo did start a shower of sixes with one of the cleanest hits I’ve seen in a very long time, with the ball being deemed lost and their captain trying to bring out another brand-new ball even though it was 14 overs old the headmaster stood firm and wasn’t going to be dragged into these school boy tactics.

Jo was out in the 14th over which saw the ever-reliable Tom Lockhart join Iskander at the crease with his second scoring shot being a glorious straight drive for six, really showing the opposition that we could match their big hitting but this also being the downfall for Tom being caught on the long off boundary for a well compiled 19 which helped continue to keep us above the run rate.

The very patient Paddy, joined Iskander at the crease managing to keep some of their very good balls out until one brushed his glove and in true Ploughman spirit walked although Mo at umpire couldn’t see what it had come off and wasn’t going to give it out.

This saw our Skipper Grant stride out to the crease reminiscent of Richie Richardson with the wide floppy hat joining Iskander who had just brought up his 50 and looking very solid, this saw them put on 47 for the 5th wicket which brought us needing 7 to win and Iskander hit a 4 to bring up the victory in style and finish 81 not out, his batting performance was exceptional and very well supported by Jo, Tom and Grant to get us the chocolates.

Gold win by 5 wickets in the 37th over.

Plough on
