We learned how to make a cricket bat from a dry fallen palm leaf after a conversation with a man from St Vincent.  Apparently all the kids learn how to do it, with examples in the cricket museum here and advice about playing techniques.  This is Rob using the 'defensive' side of the bat.

All you need is a palm leaf, a very sharp knife and a beach in the Caribbean!
