...and it also means that Terry or Barney will have to take the kit and wash it (as I can't take it to Beaconsfield and leave it stinking my car out for hours).

We really need a friendly otherwise we won't have played for 3 weeks when the season starts! We'll sort out the kit, nets whatever between us, won't be a problem

If you see your cousin over the weekend, can you give Allenburys a try ? See if they have got their pitch up there ? They are using it on the 8th for their first League match, so maybe the posts might be up on the 1st.
