What can you tell those people that you've been up to since we last saw you?
3:59
Yes, well, I'm still running up and down a court on a Monday night playing social over 45s, even though I am closer to 57.
4:09
And, yeah, so still quite competitive.
4:12
I'm, yeah, between seasons at the moment, but I finished last season with a torn hamstring, having just battled back from a torn calf, but still really enjoy the game of basketball and getting out there and running up and down.
4:28
uh with a great bunch of guys we call ourselves uh la 37ers and that's uh that's a name from long before i joined the team so they've been going about 30 plus years i believe and um every monday night after the game someone's responsible for bringing all the ingredients for a barbecue And Chris Sterling, the original 36ers, I think, captain, is the orchestrator of it.

And so you have to bring three courses of meat, basically.
4:59
And I got in trouble for bringing three different types of sausages one time, and it was considered unacceptable and poor form, along with a couple of bottles of red wine and a carton of beer.
