Mortimers Morris Womens' side based in Nottingham. They cruised to a victory at the 2003 Fig and Date, in no small part attributed to the promise of a yacht club for the next Fayre. As it happens, it slipped a year, and we would have enjoyed their hospitality on March 19th 2005, for the Mother of all Fig and Date Fayres, but Black Pig hosted us instead! I've kept the link because we're nice like that | |
