Things to do in Southstoke

On a Sunday during the cricket season, seek out the longest-serving member of the South Stoke cricket team, and shake him by the hand. Mike Bishop has been playing for the club for more than fifty years, and hasn’t let Parkinson’s Disease get in the way of taking wickets. In fact, he says it may actually have helped him. The batsmen see his hands shaking as he comes into bowl and have no idea what to expect.
