Windsor here we come...

Tomorrow evening Marla and I are off to a softball tournament in Windsor for the weekend. I have very little information about the event other than it spans both Saturday and Sunday. We are going with three other members of our team and quite a few members of another team that compete in our weekly league (The Flatpackers they are known as - because they are Ikea employees!). It's a camping event so we have all our equipment inventoried and ready and have just purchased supplies from Safeway.

Griff and Rachael are not coming unfortunately, it would have been a lot of fun with them but they are going to the Royal International Air Tattoo at RAF Fairford. We would have gone to that if there had not been the softball tournament the same weekend.

It will be interesting to see how the tournament is organised. I assume there will be some sort of round-robin league with perhaps a knock out event later on. But we will find out. There will be at least 16 people on our team so I'm sure I won't get to play every game - and maybe I won't want to - but I hope I get to play quite a lot.

I am also working on an opinion piece for the weblog. Something that I have been musing over for a couple of weeks and thought I would try to get off my chest, however, once I started writing the post I quickly realised that I had more to say on the subject than I had anticipated. So, I have decided to make it a two-parter. Part one coming soon...
