Favourite player/s you've played with:
Too many to list. It would be easier to list those I didn't like playing with, who number about 8. That said, in pure cricketing terms Millichope, Burgess B, Flood J, Flood D, Flood N, Hearnie, Williams, Walliker, Fowdy, O'Mahoney & Partridge C are amongst the best
Player that you would most like to face in a cricket match:
Norton J
Player you would least like to face in a cricket match:
Going back a few years Flood J, but nowadays Partridge C
Any ambitions before your playing career comes to an end?
I have four ambitions left, first to see Jim get a hundred; secondly, to take 100 stumpings and 500 catches (although I think the latter is a little ambitious given my age and health problems); thirdly, to be the first person to take five catches in a match; and finally, to be involved in one way or another in the fall of all ten opposition wickets. If I fail in the last one, I will just have to be involved in the fall of all 10 PPCC wickets (I can see some run outs in the air)!
