World Masters Edmonton Canada 2005

[Nickponting]

Chris Hunt and I are contemplating entering the World Masters next year in the 35-39 yr elite category and we were wondering if there is a big contingent going from the UK? We were also considering entering a team but need some team mates, don't necessarily have to be ex-internationals though that would be nice and obviously if you are playing with us it will be in the elite category because of our past so get in touch if you are going or are interested in going or can give any advice about this having been to one before.

[SUPERTED]

Does this mean that chris has returned from the mountains where he has been tracing his roots amoung the Silverback Gorrillas?

[mrmagoo]

are you still under 39 nick?!

[smudger]

Nick, Chris Sheppard from hants will play the elite over 35's

[Nickponting]

37 so just about in my prime and with grey hairs to lull people into a false sense of security - need to dust off the rackets though!

Take it easy, those stumpy little legs of yours wont be as quick as they used to be Ponts.....to be honest they were never quick enough to take me on a half court!

and who is my esteemed half court singles conqueror or was that a ficticious claim?

[Admiral]

I know there are a lot of players who could make that claim but I always had your number on the half court. Many times you tried to take the title but it always ended in tears! The Admiral was unstoppable on the half court, in fact he still is!!

[mrmagoo]

you must be eligible for the masters by now admiral?or would you rather keep away from the big hairy gorilla and vertically challenged ones?

[Admiral]

The Admiral has got a few years yet before he is eligible for the Masters Mr Magoo! He thinks " the big hairy gorilla and the vertically challenged one" are trying to relive former glories?

One day The Admiral will return and hopefully he will see you there Mr Magoo!

This 'silverback' will be live & kicking in Edmonton next year, as hairy as ever!!
Hi chris how you doing? good thats 3 any more for Edmonton?
chunt

[Admiral]

I think you have the wrong man Chunt! If this is the real Chris Hunt, The Admiral sends his regards, we must go back 20 years....hope all is well in Bolton!!

[Nickponting]

Well Admiral you obviously talk a good game but as you won't reveal your identity I guess we must assume that you didn't win too much way back then - of course if you would like to prove me wrong then I am all ears as am sure Chunty is - by the way what a frightening combination a short ginger dwarf and a hairy back gorilla! care to challenge us for a few quid????

[Admiral]

You are right Ponts, I didn't win that much but I was mustard on half court! You and Chunt would take some beating I will admit that. Wouldn't fancy taking you on a badders but a round of golf...no problem!

Admiral,
Fancy a pint, This is.........
