Clear blue skies, bright sunshine but only 8 degrees with a biting wind, 11 hardy souls braved these conditions to play at Strawberry Lane on a cold Wednesday in February watched by Tom, our chief supporter, there being no humans. This game is usually depicted in a French village square in balmy sunshine and glasses of pastis, but not in Ottery St Mary!
