Co-ed softball in the English Garden

Hurrah! I'm up for that.

Yippeee! I can play this time as well (well I am physically able to play but whether I can or not remains to be seen ) Count me in

You go Toasty you little planner you.

I'm interested! But no glove... are there enough extras?

Ever considered a name change?

Never played softball, so I'm in. Sounds like a fun day out.

We've got a whole bag full of gloves of all sizes kindly donated by the ex-Wilson rep... no problem. It's a remarkably good way to spend an afternoon with a few beers and a nod towards exercise.

sounds like fun. I'm in!

And as my knee is now fully mended, I will be playing and actually running this time

Oh how I shall miss my game of non-running softball...

I'll be up for this and I hope ye get a good crowd. Miss the Sunday games over near the Turm. Won't be able to make it for a while though.

would like to but cannot commit yet.

So Tom, are you going to run for me to make up for all that jogging I did last time then? This is getting better and better...

Oh darn, I leave for vacation on Saturday, will wait until the next time!

I'll be the first base coach again. Count me in!!

ummm... benpanter and mrbrain are we not forgetting about frisbee??
edit: I see frisbee is at 4 now... def going to frisbee sunday but wouldn't mind checking this out as well

I'd really like to, but it's been 13 years since High School PE class and have BBQ the night before, so can't say what state I'll be in. Can you count me as a possible.

I love softball. I will be there.

Damn, we are going to the Kaltenberger Ritter Tourney that day. Keep the 3rd of September open as we are planning a Labor Day picnic and softball in the park would be a great accompaniment.

Hiya Yall...

Theres a young man called Alex been pestering me all winter when you guys will start up again.

Got me nose fixed, still can not run.

Alex, Tanya & Dave

Regards

Dave

I'll be there too this time

I will see what I can do about coming out...

Can't run anywhere, can't play any sports. But I'll be there. (because it sounds like fun)

oh, that should be interesting!

And why would that be interesting...

I'm in. Haven't played in many moons so it will be interesting!!

Perhaps she was making a reference to the play on words... coming out as in admitting you're gay... though I'm not certain. Maybe she just thought it'd be really funny to watch a Canadian play softball.

Must have been the fact that a canadian is going to play softball...cause I cant see the other one being true...

maybe she was just doing a favor for all the ladies on TT and getting definite clarification as to your sexual preference.

Edit: So to summarize: You aren't gay and you'll be at softball this weekend.

hahah well now she knows... if anyone else needs more clarification , just let me know.

Jenny was right it was the use of your words there Canuck403!

i'm planning to play too. heard there are 3 lefty gloves so i have no excuse!

mrs. thejarvii

I think I actually have a glove somewhere too (sorry, not a lefty) and some softballs if you need any extras.

Edit: Mrs. thejarvii, will Mini-thejarvii also be in attendance? Haven't seen you since you were extremely preggers. PS- also, I will never forgive you for telling me they sell peanut butter cups at Hertie when I came over to your house to watch the Nebraska game.

Mods I think the game is tomorrow 16.July.2006 - isn't it? Title says 26th.

How are the numbers looking ?
If I can find all of you, I'll play along...

I've gotta pick up the equipment from Toast in Bogenhausen. I could be a few minutes late getting there...don't worry though. I willl be there around 1pm...give or take..

It's a perfect sunny day for some softball and drinks later at Hirschau. Come one, come all. Beginners especially...

opted to lie by the pool instead... maybe next week if the sun isn't out.

Thanks to the ones who organized this. It was really fun. I had a great time. Everybody did really well- especially those who were playing for the first time today.

I hope my shin turns all black and blue so I can post a picture.

Had a blast playing yesterday. I have sore muscles that I didn't realize I had as a result (not to mention a bruised ass and a broken toe ) but it was well worth it. I say we make this a regular event!!

a bajillion thanks to canuck for saving the day!

That was great folks - thanks!

In other news, did anyone pick up a purple frisbee by any chance? Realised that I had left it at the field when I was at the beer garden, but it wasn't there when I went to look for it...

Good to know I'm not the only one who woke up stiff and sore this morning. It'd be fun to meet up again this summer- I'd be for making it a regular event too.

Thanks for organising this event. Was great fun!!! Would be keen to do it again.

Yeah, that was a lot of fun even though I arrived late and didn't know the rules. Will definitely play again.

OUCH! Tape your broken toe to the one next to it. I wonder how honeebeaz's forearm looks!

Nah, you wanna tape it to the corresponding toe on the other foot. That's the way to do it.

touche keydeck. I was merely making the suggestion on the off chance bern did not know how to care for broken metatarsals...I forgot for a second that bern has military training.

And therefore has probably just requisitioned a new toe from the Quartermaster.

with all this talk of bruises, I am wondering if you all played Contact SoftBall?
sort of getting scared to actually join you guys then.

nah, it was a friendly game. I'll bet honeebeaz arm looks bad though. She really got hit hard with the ball. I'm getting a fabulous bruise on my leg-- if it'd just get a little darker it'd be picture worthy.

What does military training have to do with broken piggies!?!? It's not really broken anyway. Just slightly battered after having someone slide into it...anyone know how to remove blood from fluffy white socks??

Sooooo sorry for your toe bern! It was a heat of the moment thing, you know, it's all about reaching 1st base!..

@ wahoo & Jenny L: no worries, thanks for asking. My arm is just fine, not a very big mark and not even that painful. I am following the "if you don't touch it, you won't even know it is there" philosophy. Looking forward to seeing all the colours of the rainbow in it though, should be interesting. Jenny L and I should definitely meet up in a couple of days to compare the evolution stages. Bern, if you want, you're in with your toe.

Glad to know I wasn't the only one in bits when I got up this morning! I've discovered a bunch of never felt before/very sore muscles.

I'm definitely up for making this a regular event too. Great craic that was!

@ bern: ask wahoo, she had to wear fluffy white socks on a regular basis for a while.
