Your most memorable cricketing feat:
Hitting Evo over his head to record my first 6

Most admired Reds cricketer:
Brett Byrne for continued bitterness while still turning up to everything and "You ruined our game" quote to an opposition player who was far too good for C grade. Nigel for being so keen and telling himself to "fire up" as he chases the ball to the boundary.

Most admired non-Reds Mercantile cricketer:
All Barnys for their good attitude.

Most admired international cricketer:
Depak Patel. After realising he couldn't bat, started bowling. The architect of all NZ internationals since.

Funniest Reds moment:
Beam-bowling Kim in the nets and having him call me 2 hours later to advise me I am the worst bowler at the club and should never be allowed to bowl and in the same sentence asking me if I wanted to go for a beer.

Best sledge heard/given/experienced:
"I do the talking 'round 'ere" – a batsman who while fielding sledged every ball and when batting advised the fielding team he would continue to do the sledging

Political views in five words or less:
Give peas a chance

Six people you would invite to dinner:
Mum & Dad, Charlie Chaplin, Churchill, Knut Hamsun, Maria Von Trapp

Six people you'd never invite to dinner:
I would have most people to dinner
