Wash out

There has been a lot spoken about the summers being enjoyed on both ides of the Atlantic. It seems that neither is what we would have wished for.

Yesterday, my 5 times postponed District Cup Final was decided by the toss of a coin. We won! Now we are in a County Semi Final this week, weather permitting!

So far this summer, the two kids cricket teams I manage have had 19 cancellations due to weather and played 12 games. The irony of this sign at our local cricket club has always made me smile!! How apt it has been this summer.

I took the shot this morning when I popped down to collect a match ball for a game scheduled this evening, that will almost certainly not go ahead!
Awwhh ...sorry your game was postponed again! ..what did you do?

Oh no Sean!......I have realy had enough of this weather now, Its spoiling too many peoples enjoyment!

Haha, funny sign, hope the weather improves for the semi final.

Having a bit of rain over your way. Great sign.

Great shot Sean, you should put up "Never to be used" instead of Keep Off. Glad I'm not on the team that lost on coin toss.

Sorry about all your cancellations this year. From my perspective - the grass is definitely greener over your way! Finally a break in the temps yesterday - Sending sunny thoughts your way.

A season to forget Sean! we are so reliant on the weather for our summer sports... very disappointing!
July 9th, 2012  
That's a great sign.
July 9th, 2012  
Too bad... Oh my, five times! I hope you get to play it

So horrible, the weather you've been having! It's pretty much a drought here... Keeping my fingers crossed for you!!!

Blargh, that is a lot of postponements and cancellations! Sending sunny thoughts for your semi final game. :)

What a great sign, my friend @cally would like this.
July 10th, 2012  
Good shot .... Hope you have relief soon

@gphelps5 I can't say that I like it. I don't. We have played ten games and lost twelve, and looks like this weekend is going down the drain too (see what I did there?)
