Here are some lovely pictures – lots more to come!

Don’t forget we’ll be playing croquet in the usual spot in Victoria Park from 2.30pm on Saturday. Do have a look at the Facebook event for more details.

Your Queen has returned from Secret Garden Party and is feeling rather sleepy. We had a smashing time…we taught croquet to our fellow gardeners for 4 days straight, covered ourselves in glitter, frolicked by a lake, climbed towers of pillows and danced until out feet bled. Huge thanks to Gwen, El, Matt and especially Wil for making the first Croquet East outing to Secret Garden Party so entirely delightful.

Here are some lovely pictures:

Don’t forget we’re bashing balls as usual on Saturday my darlings…see you at 2.30pm in the usual spot to the left of Bonner Gate. Any questions see the facebook event or drop us an email at croqueteast@gmail.com. Woohoo!

Well, we’re halfway through the croquet season and I must say things are going rather well! We’ve played a lot of lovely croquet and generally had a rather splendid time.

We went to Wyndstock a few weeks ago and taught some festival revellers the croquet ropes. We had a smashing time – drank cocktails in the grounds of a beautiful country pile, ate a candlelit meal under the stars, soaked in hot-tubs and frolicked by the sea. How delightful! Here are some lovely pictures of the event:

Jealous? Don’t be – there’s another Wyndstock in August and we were so successful, we’ve been invited back and we need volunteers. Fancy a night of croquet coaching and gallivanting under the stars? Get in touch at croqueteast@gmail.com!

In other news, I’m super happy to announce the next croquet date will be on Saturday 16th July in Victoria Park (usual spot to the left of Bonner Gate). We’ll be bashing balls from 2.30pm and are looking forward to seeing you all there. Check out the facebook event for more details.

Also, rather excitingly, in August (probably 16th) the famous silver fox, David is popping back to Victoria Park to teach us Croquet Association rules! How jolly exciting. This will be a limited numbers event and I’m sure places will be in hot demand so make sure you sign up asap. You can tweet, facebook or email us to reserve your place on the course.

Pop along to Victoria Park (the part to the left of Bonner Gate) from 2.30pm Saturday 2nd July 2011 to bash some balls through hoops and generally have an extremely jolly time. All levels of play welcome – there will be lovely coaches on hand at all times to show you the ropes.
