Blackheath Ladies Hockey 2nd X1 V Folkestone

As the aquamarine blue waters of the ocean lapped the sunny shores of F’stone, Blackheath donned costumes, flip flops and SF50 (Sarah) in order to celebrate the end of the hockey season, the defeat at their last match 3-0, the departure of ol’ friends (who?) and Daphne’s T-shirt .

And as Blackheath swam amongst the flotsam and jetsom coming up from Dungeness, they could afford to let the pride of a season’s job well done caress their bruised shins and thoughts of relegation be as brine to open wounds, for it has been ‘all for one and one for all’ or CoD PieCe.
