Hmm, is it a 'thing' for croquet?

 

[spalding12]

ah.....
yes it is
correct

I thought 'ouch', but I don't know why. Then I also thought 'the middle stump is missing', but I know Greg is from Florida and has maybe never seen a set of stumps. I'm an expat 'bok and still enjoy watching an ODI or 20/20 game whenever I get the chance, which is not very often.

Good one Greg.

Regards,

Wooh! I guess everyone has to be good at something!

I've never actually played the game, maybe I should sometime. Thanks for the puzzle Greg.

Coming late to the dance, but Greg, any fool knows Cricket has 3 stumps and bails that rest on top!
