Hang on, what?
Only memories I have of BYC are the mad dash to play at silly mid-on/silly mid-off because you didn’t have to run over all the prickles like in the outfield.
We certainly didn’t have barbies and L&P in the Manawatu. More like old dog sausage squashing between your toes and grazes from sliding along gravel driveways to make a catch. If you got a drink at all it was a glass of Raro, but one of those ones where the mum of the kid had put one sachet with 2l of water to try and make it more economical.

Richard, we got one of those. Well 2 actually

You forgot to add the original “MEDIA RELEASE” (note more annoying capitalisation) didn’t have the attachment, and they had to resend.

Anyway, the concept of backyard cricket being sponsored by a soft drink company seems a bit like cheating.

What disturbs me is that the L&P poster boys look like 30-something Auckland ad guys (or their friends) who have HILARIOUSLY dressed up in the clothes they wore to their HILARIOUS retro ’80s classic Kiwi beach barbecue (at Hopetoun Alpha, not a beach) Christmas party.

The only conclusion that can be logically drawn from this is that L&P are actively pursuing the douchebag market.
