 Having had my wrists slapped -twice - over last week’s report I need to apologise to the Ladies’ team  for not giving them the credit of winning the short match and not the Gents. Sorry Ladies BUT its only a game!!!

I’ll try to get it right this time.    Rather than pitch ladies against gents it was decided to divide into mixed teams of 4 each, A and B.  A kicked off the first end but lost by one point which they equalised on the second.    Only one point to each alternately until the end of end five when A was leading by three ends to two.    It goes to show how close we managed to be near the cochon.    Over the next four ends B team roared ahead gaining a further 8 points and then A team regained one.  The last four ends saw As win 1 point and Bs 3 making the final scores 5 to 13 in favour of the latter.

It was a brilliant game with boules being nudged away alternately from a good position time and time again with a few surprises.    A real “bite your nails” situation.    We’ll done everyone

Join us again on the 16th October at 10.15am on the pitch behind the library.      It’s fun.
