How to reach the ground
The County Ground, Wendover Road, Aylesbury HP21 9NJ. Tel: 01296 415187.
Take the A413 out of Aylesbury signed to Wendover/Amersham. The ground, part of the Aylesbury and District Sports Club, is on the left by a 40mph speed limit sign about a mile from the town centre.
The 1st XI had an average season despite some good results. The 2nd XI, surprisingly because of their final position, were promoted to Division 7. A few new players are promised for 2005 so with
the youngsters maturing well we are hopeful of a good season.
Next week is The Oxford Times Wine Club Christmas Tasting and, with just four weeks to go until Christmas Day, it is an excellent opportunity to sample a specially-selected range of wines for the festive season.

I had trouble shifting my +1 for the musical Imagine This, which opened last week at the New London Theatre. No-one was interested (one German friend would have come, but funnily enough I hadn’t thought to ask him), and while nobody actually said, “Sounds like a gas”, there were plenty of unprintable responses, averaging out at: “Holocaust – the musical? Um, no thanks . . . ”
Another winter rolls in and, to cheer our spirits, Oxfordshire Touring Theatre Company travel hither and yon through the county with colour, music and fun trailing in their wake. For those of us who live in villages these harbingers of the festive season are a welcome sight.
