Dollar CC v Falkland CC 16th June 2013 As only one old biddy uses public transport in Dollar, we joined her and met at 11:45 in the bus stop outside the Kings Seat for the trip to Falkland. Well all of us except Craig ‘Craig Smith’ Smith did, whose excuse for being late was he’d…
Too Sexy for the Sannox Sixes
Well final preparations have been made, excuses prepared and tour tops ordered. The annual trip to the Isle of Arran is only a few days away, so I thought it only fair to fill everyone in on the details ( however sketchy ) so far. Currently an advance party comprising Buck, Jas, Fox, Turkish, Mel…
The DCC “Go West” Tour 2015
Thanks to the boys who attended a great summer net last night, good effort. After said net we retired to the clubhouse for some light refreshment when the subject of a Caribbean Tour reared its head again. Now after much debate and far fetched ideas I have taken on the mantle of making this dream…
Craig “Craig Smith” Smith also known as “Dropsy”
After another stunning victory against Grange this weekend, I thought it only fitting to pay tribute to a young man in our squad who over the years has battled through for the DCC. Craig “Craig Smith” Smith had a promising career with the DCC until bowling against Forfarshire (our next fixture ironically) he planted his…
Bats, BBQ and a Haka………….
BBQ, New Bat Delivery and End of an Era! Last night after practice saw the DCC have their annual fundraising BBQ at the Academy. Practice went well with 3 nets in operation and most people must have had their Weetabix before the nets as the balls were flying all over the place. Unfortunately even with…
The DCC “Shaked, Rattled and Rolled Over….”
Well the much anticipated T20 against Clackmannan arrived last Wednesday with a slightly overcast evening and light breeze. Fred Titmus will no doubt file a full match report in due course, however, it has been noted that his excuses for late posts are becoming lame. (“some of have jobs!!”) To cut a long story short…
The DCC “Stretch” Out
Last week Dollar Cricket Club played in a new fixture with Her Majesty’s Prison Glenochil. The match was organised by Wattie Reekie, Health and Wellbeing Manager at Glenochil, and Adam Buchanan-Smith the Chairman and Captain of Dollar. For obvious reasons the game was an away match for Dollar. Because of the match being played in…
Dollar Carnival of Cricket
It was a scorching Dollar Gala Saturday and the DCC were in full fundraiser mode, yet again. Alan “Turkish” Douglas and Fox set off early to collect hay bays for the one stump challenge, whilst Taliban and Harold erected a marquee and giant dartboard for Alan “Thieving Gypsy” Douglas to use in the DCC dart…
Fox “Star Jumping for Joy” after latest DCC victory.
As a former Aussie I played with in England used to say, Sunday was a ‘Champion Day for Cricket’! A glorious blue sky, lush green outfield and rock hard wicket greeted the teams who assembled for the 2pm start and once the obligatory boundary markers were laid out, sight screens were moved into position and…
DCC Teas hindered by “Sandwichgate”
It has come to the attention of one of the committee that certain members of the team have been enlisting external sources to produce teas. It was noted that Alan “Turkish” Douglas admitted to a production line of child labour to produce his egg salad wraps. Children seem to feature heavily in this investigation as…
