Pointless Experiments

Hammer cricket
Stupid game we came up with during the ashes a few years back.
We didnt have a cricket bat in the office and we all wanted to play cricket. We did have a hammer though. So i was handed the task of making a bat.
I taped a big fuck off hammer to some foam board so that the handle of the hammer was the grip (deeeeeeeeer) and then cut the foam board into a bat shape.
It had a nice feel to it, nice and heavy. So, stumps are made, me facing the first ball of the office ashes.
Oh its a low one, a nice flick off the pads will get me runs here i think. But i wasnt wearing pads, and managed to smash the hammer into my knee. It hurt. A lot. I was in agony. Everyone was laughing and that was the end of the game.
It still hurts when it gets cold out

I worked in a bakery during the ashes.
Our version consisted of a french loaf bat and a crispy roll ball. Unfortunately, the result was often a cracked bat, snapped clean in half :-(
At least if you whack yourself with a french loaf the worst you have to worry about is crumbs.

We had no ball
so we used potatoes.
It all worked very well until:
"What's for dinner?"
"Nothing."
"Oh."
