Third game of year, was held on another warm sunny Sunday afternoon. Another 8- a-side game played up and down the pitch to minimise risk of high balls going into the neighbouring gardens. The doonies beat the uppies in a fair game of robust tackles, polished finishing and continental diving. Both teams scored a few nice goals too.

Doonies: Neil F, Craig F, Rob, Neil A, Fraser, David, Euan and Scott

Uppies: Phil, Ed, Sam, Stuart, Holly, Laura, Duncan and Derek.

All welcome for the next game on April 27th at 3pm.

Evidence of Catterline's growing reputation on the world soapbox cartie stage was dramatically demonstrated today with the announcement that world famous racing car manufacturers Ferrari will be entering a team in this year's Catterline Cartie Challenge.

They have been keeping a close eye on developments in soapbox design and have seen the recent successes of teams such as Lotus and Honda in other events. A spokesman said "We have noted with interest the improvements that some of our rivals have achieved in handling and aerodynamics, not to mention the increased bravery of their drivers, and we attribute this directly to their involvement in events such as the Cadwell Park Gravity Festival, the Belchford Downhill Challenge and the Goodwood Festival of Speed. We have decided to compete at Catterline in order to make sure we develop our skills in all areas of our sport."

From the forum;

"There has been a lovely black and white cat with a pink nose going round Trelong Row for a couple of days. I have fed him and he is extremely hungry and quite thin.

...

Please, does anyone know of a missing cat or of anyone who could provide a happy home for this homeless kitten cat? Otherwise I have to put him back where I found him which I'd hate to do in this weather. "

The St Patrick's Day quiz in the Creel in last Monday was very closely fought, with "Cisco" coming through strongly in the final rounds to push "Paddy McGinty's Goat" and defending champions "Monotreme Quartz" into second and third place. Both "The Quartz" and "The Goats" had led the field during the night, but a perfect 20 in the sports round put Cisco in poll position, and they just managed to hold on in the last three rounds to claim the prize.

The prize for the best team name was awarded to "Paddy McGinty's Goat". 9 teams took part, with all proceeds going to CLAN.
