Ladies at C.L.A.S.S.8.8..M.o.n..F.e.b.5.

Bit chaotic with the Colinton girls all unsure of their playing order until the finally got it sorted at 7.30 and play could commence. You would think they were missing their big guns but not so, it was Grange who were missing their normal #2 and #3.

At #5, Karen beat Kirsty McPhee in four while #4 Anna "Kournikova" Gaskell bt Isla Davis 3-0 in the strangest game Anna has played (maybe she should study videos of Gerald Suggett or the pros playing on PSAsquashTV.com to get used to commentary during rallies).

CLASS got one back with #3 Jacque White (pictured) playing very well but losing in 5 to Lynn Grant. Georgie Jamieson lost the first against Sam Fearnley but pronounced that she'd sussed out her weaknesses. She backed up this assertion by controlling the next 3 to ensure the bonus points were in the bag for Grange.

Donna took a game off #1 Kim Byers for the first time and pushed her hard for two more before completely running out of gas in the fourth.

Overall 3-2 (17-10) and a body-blow to CLASS hopes of winning both leagues this season. Testimony to the strength-in-depth of ladies squash at Grange this season that an under-strength team still got the job done, away to last-season's title-holders. There just remains away fixtures at Dalgety and Waverley for entry into the playoff with CLASS.
It will be an interesting club-championship at Grange with 7 or 8 players in contention.

Chicken 'n pasta with home-made flapjacks for pud, very nice.
