A home for stuff which doesn't sit happily elsewhere.  If you have any such stuff which you would like to share with the Collective don't hesitate to send it to the Secretary.

  • Things They Never Said: Attached to the minutes of the 1990 AGM was a list compiled by the Beard of "things they never said".  Despite the passing of the years, the list is as relevant now as it was then.  Further contributions are welcome, through the usual channels.
  • Web site of the month - the definitive collection.  Here's your chance to ignore again the lovingly-crafted list of entertaining and/or barking mad sites which you ignored the first time round.
  • I don't know what's going off out there - a semi-serious collection of articles explaining what real cricketers do.
  • Notes on scoring - a small collection of advice for anyone who finds themselves in front of the RBCC scorebook with a pen in their hand - or you could do what everyone else does in such circumstances and shout "Can someone take over the scoring, I have to pad up".
  • The Andy Lee "Guess the Tour" competition.   Take a look at these pictures, and using your skill and judgement, guess where we were at the time.  The judges' decision will be inexplicable, and no prize can be expected for the best entry.  If you would rather treat this as a caption competition, it would be better for everybody.
  • Not before time, here are some tour t-shirt graphics for your amusement and delectation.
  • Demonstrating conclusively that it don't mean a thing if it ain't got that swing, the Red Bat Song returns (but not by popular request).  For connoisseurs, the Dub mix may be indispensable.
  • In the finest tradition of Readers' Digest, we now have a real caption competition for the 2006 season.  The winner will receive a lifetime subscription to the RedBat mailing list, which will be impossible ever to cancel.  So will the losers.  If any entries are received, and if they pass the stringent quality threshold which applies throughout the site, they will be shared for us all to enjoy.
  • Just in case the Secretary falls under the legendary number 73 bus, here are some technical details to allow the calculation of averages and the production of online scoresheets to continue as some sort of low-key memorial.
