He's also a decent cricketer. He averaged over 70 last season & was the scourge of the other clubs in his league. You could often hear the fans of his opponents shouting "get quim out, get quim out". I needed a shoe horn for that one. And it was still ****.
Out of everybody on here who I could guarantee would reply it would be thee How's the Spoff woman going, any further replies?
Nope. It seems Maggy has sussed me out. It seems Quim had a problem with his feet though. I saw him get out LBW many times. The full length delivery swinging into Quim was often his undoing. Not many bowlers could handle Quim though.
That counts me out then. I tend to be quite short. Its a shame that I can't get it near the 'stump' hole.
He got caught in the gully a few times. The "airy quim shot" meant that some teams fielded two gullies. His 209 not out earlier in the year was very impressive. It was 35 degrees & took him 3 hours. The sight of a sweaty Quim getting in the showers is one I'll never forget.
Its a shame the quim i know never edged one of my short ones behind Quim loved to feel the batsmans wood in his hands between overs.</p> Thats my last one.</p>
His off spin is quite poor though. In our game I repeatedly tickled Quim through the covers. I also didn't like the way he tilted his headwear. Quims cocked hat looked silly. I could do this all day.
A particular favourite of mine... The tickle through the covers. I've seen people with tents up in the on the cover edge when quim is on show.</p>
All our batsmen took a liking to his spin. Quim got banged all over the place. He's good mates with David Gower too. In fact - they flew over our pitch in a plane once for a bit of fun. They could only do one pass though - as there seemed to be a problem with Quims flaps.
Nice Gower analogy I was sure it was going to be summat to do with a rather large grey monkeys foreheead
RE: Nice Gower analogy He's in partnership with Del Monte on a new project. I hear "Quim juice" will be released shortly. I'm not sure if I believe him though. In fact I said "that sounds fishy, Quim". This could go on for a while.
I played against Quim once, in a 16 over cup match Larry, our keeper who had a speach impediment that meant he pronounced 'tch' more like 'ck' made me laugh when quim skied one to mid off, and all we could hear from behind the stumps was a nasally 'cack quim, cack quim' Thanks for reading, and sincere apologies
He was out early against us. He then spent most of their innings stripping the lead of the pavillion roof along with their captain and Neil, the ex-Millwall striker. Our Chairman asked me where the lead had gone, just as their captain walked by ... to which I replied: "he's had it off with Quim and Harris". Ahem.
The tea at their place was quite poor. The bread rolls were all damaged & broken - making messy eating almost compulsary. At one point I clearly remember seeing Quim covered in cottage cheese. They also had many types of stew. I overheard someone say that "Quim was full of rabbit".
