The Captain's Blog

At long last I've got some time to myself to sit down and pen a blog. I know it's been a while, but it's also been a while since we last played!!

When I was writing my last blog, I was sure we could continue with our winning ways and leapfrog Swansea to pole position in the league.

Coming soon to this website will be a fascinating feature entitled “The Captain’s Blog” (a deliberate pun on the Star Trek series' "Captain's Log"!).
