"Mini tornado strikes Rugby"

From The Metro:

The Middle School inter-house rugby final between Thoresby and Barry was briefly interrupted after a high penalty kick by Verity, JA was blown several hundred yards into somebody's front garden.

"It was amazing!" reported Satterthwaite, TB who had been watching from the sidelines, "It was almost as if the ball was never going to land. Ever!"

Hobbs Jr was despatched down to the groundsmen's shed to obtain another ball. By the time he returned, the gusts appeared to have subsided and Mr Milne decided that play should continue. Barry duly won the match 19-13.

Opinions on the school bus back into town were divided on whether or not Winehouse, AC had passed the ball forward to Jackson, PL in the closing moments while Mr Milne's chased a dog from the pitch. But then again, it wouldn't have made any difference to the final result.
