Where's Mat?

by **Trevor Swann** Fri Aug 14, 2015 1:51 pm

Whilst I'm all for this one last show seems strange without Mat.....so where is he?

Please list all the places you have looked for him so we don't end up searching down the back of the sofa twice.

by **Electric Demon** Fri Aug 14, 2015 2:12 pm

I've been up the Shard

by **Dicey** Fri Aug 14, 2015 2:19 pm

Euphemism?

That's all very well and good but what have you done to help find mat?

by **Electric Demon** Fri Aug 14, 2015 2:22 pm

Nothing - just a fact.
Not even a true one

by **Marsh** Fri Aug 14, 2015 2:24 pm

I've not been the up the shard. I have walked past it though.

Mat wasn't there

by **Electric Demon** Fri Aug 14, 2015 2:26 pm

My uncle has been up there - he didn't mention he had seen him

by **Dicey** Fri Aug 14, 2015 2:26 pm

I looked out my office window, he isn't over here

by **Beer** Fri Aug 14, 2015 2:28 pm

I have actually spoken to him, but this seems much more fun.

He's definitely not one of Bull's guests.

by **Electric Demon** Fri Aug 14, 2015 2:42 pm

Anyone checked if he's under the cat?

by **Dicey** Fri Aug 14, 2015 2:45 pm

He maybe looking for the elusive Crimus lordus

by **Marsh** Fri Aug 14, 2015 2:46 pm

He's not in our stationery cupboard. I was sure he would be

by **Beer** Fri Aug 14, 2015 3:05 pm

He definitely wasn't at the bottom of my Walkers Extra Crunchy Salt & Vinegar crisps.

by **Marky** Fri Aug 14, 2015 3:18 pm

I thought I saw him in the Halfords carrier bag in my office, but it was just a Blind Spot Mirror.

by **Electric Demon** Fri Aug 14, 2015 3:29 pm

I thought I just saw him on Dog the Bounty Hunter but it turned out it was Dog the Bounty Hunter

by **Amy T** Fri Aug 14, 2015 3:32 pm

I've looked in lidl, asda,tesco and waitrose

by **Marsh** Fri Aug 14, 2015 3:38 pm

He's not currently preparing to be revealed for strictly come dancing.

He turned it down

by **Beer** Fri Aug 14, 2015 3:38 pm

I just contacted a colleague in the US and he's not in our Agile area.

by **Dicey** Fri Aug 14, 2015 3:52 pm

He isn't in my works toilet

by **Trevor Swann** Fri Aug 14, 2015 5:23 pm

He wasn't on my train home.

by **Beer** Fri Aug 14, 2015 5:35 pm

He's not in my local pub.

by **Electric Demon** Fri Aug 14, 2015 5:51 pm

He's not in morrisons - I even checked the Free From aisle. I know how much he used to like his gluten free angel cakes. Couldn't keep him off them could you?

by **Marsh** Fri Aug 14, 2015 6:04 pm

There's a bloke who works in the chip shop who swears he's Mat. But he's not

by **Amy T** Fri Aug 14, 2015 7:44 pm

He wasn't on the bus or train

by **Beer** Fri Aug 14, 2015 7:52 pm

He's not the bloke who delivered my kebab, and he's not in either sides starting line up at Villa Park.

by **Olly** Fri Aug 14, 2015 9:31 pm

He wasn't on the golf course this afternoon

Neither were you.

by **Marsh** Mon Aug 17, 2015 11:56 am

I didn't bump into him anywhere over the weekend. Did anybody else have any luck?

by **Beer** Mon Aug 17, 2015 11:58 am

'fraid not.

He isn't a hidden character in Don Bradman Cricket, and he's not the referee from Football on Sunday.

by **Marky** Mon Aug 17, 2015 12:13 pm

He might have been upfront for AFC Wimbledon at Crawley on Saturday.

Actually now I think about it that was Adebayo Akinfenwa. Damn. So close.

by **Marsh** Mon Aug 17, 2015 12:22 pm

Easy mistake to make. We'll have to keep looking, he'll be out there somewhere

by **Trevor Swann** Mon Aug 17, 2015 12:26 pm

No not seen him he wasn't at the pub, coffe shop or (how middle aged am I) garden centre.

I am the world's best bowler on Don Bradman Cricket but an absolute dog shit batsman.

I get to about 30 and then see my name in lights and edge a bad ball behind.

I'm not too bad at bowling.

Is the game worth sticking with? I bought it a while only played on it once and then kind of just forgot about it

Depends how much you like cricket?

It's no Brian Lara. I've only played 4 matches, so i don't know how far the game goes.

I play pretty much ever Saturday so a fair bit. Brian Lara was brilliant back in the day, one of the first ever ps1 games I bought, might give it another go then

by **Beer** Mon Aug 17, 2015 12:53 pm

It's good when you get into a rhythm as a bowler and you start beating the batsman all ends up. And appealing for absolutely anything.

by **Olly** Mon Aug 17, 2015 2:53 pm

The batting is properly good - I just make my dude in career mode have full strength then you just twat everything.

Does take some serious concentration tho

by **Electric Demon** Mon Aug 17, 2015 4:18 pm

I prefer it to Brian Lara. I think it's a brilliant game.
I'm only in my first season of my career.
Played a full season with Glamorgan and now doing a season in Australia.
Those bowling spells are awesome. I appeal as soon as it's nicked, even if it doesn't get caught. Haha.
Batting hurts my head - you really have to concentrate. My average is 18. I scored a 90 once.

by **Amy T** Tue Aug 18, 2015 4:30 pm

He wasn't anywhere we have been today

by **Trevor Swann** Tue Aug 18, 2015 4:56 pm

He wasn't in my lunch box.......that's not a euph....a maybe it is.

by **Mat** Wed Aug 19, 2015 12:08 am

Heya guys

This thread really did make me laugh, had a shit few days and it's cheered me up.

I can't apologise enough for just disappearing, tbh I don't know why I did. I guess it was just a mix of embarrassment and annoyance at how I'd let things go for this place, where I've invested a lot.

I'm sorry and can only hope you understand why I dropped of the face of the earth like you did, but understand if you don't.

I'm fully committed to this final show and hope we can go out with a bang. Smile

by **Dicey** Wed Aug 19, 2015 9:25 am

I wish Mat was here to read this

by **Beer** Wed Aug 19, 2015 10:23 am

I think he'd really enjoy this thread. He's probably had a shit few days and needs cheering up.

I HOPE YOU FIND US, MAT!!

by **Marsh** Wed Aug 19, 2015 12:10 pm

It's almost like he's still here, trying to talk to us.

by **Beer** Wed Aug 19, 2015 1:14 pm

I can feel his presence. He's been here recently.

MAT, IF YOU CAN HEAR US, MOVE TOWARDS THE LIGHT!

by **Dicey** Wed Aug 19, 2015 2:38 pm

Maybe if we play that Charlie Charlie game Mat will appear

by **TwisT** Wed Aug 19, 2015 2:58 pm

Saying Candyman 3 times did fuck all, unless they were wrongly sent to a different area.

Mix up in transportation area obviously.

by **Beer** Wed Aug 19, 2015 3:39 pm

The football section?
