Janmohamed gets engaged

After months after resistance Abeed Janmohamed has finally done the decent thing and proposed to the long-suffering Alex. He continues to display misplaced bravado (when not at home) by insisting that the wedding will not clash with any cricket, especially the Ashes, and that where and when the wedding takes place is entirely within his control.

Janmohamed was recently re-elected as Weybridge captain after leading them to promotion into the Surrey Championship Premier. Despite this success, he still needs to prove himself in Cranleigh-related cricket where he failed to reach three figures for the School, the OCs or the Village. Those who bet he would get married before he managed to reach a hundred only have one more season to sweat.

Eds Copleston gets engaged

We are delighted to announce the engagement of Eds Copleston and Sophie Cook in Mombassa at the weekend.

Eds actually got engaged at the same venue used by Will Stephens to pop the question to Katie back in 2001 during the OCCC tour of Kenya. The delightful Sophie runs the OC Ladies Netball club.

The rather alarming OC link doesn’t end there. The Serena Mombassa, the location of the engagements, is one of many hotels run by Abeed Janmoahmed’s father.

Janmohamed now becomes the bookies’ favourite to be the next high-profile OC to get engaged.
