Monday 1 April 2024

 Having been caught, yesterday. in the overnight rainstorm I was amazed to wake to bright sun this morning.    Well, it WAS  9.15am ‘cos my body hasn’t yet adjusted itself to losing the hour over the weekend.  So a quick bounce out of bed, bathroom and breakfast and I managed to reach the boules pitch just about on time.


Pleased to find that a total number of 8 members had come together to make the most of the sunshine and enjoy another game of boules.  Following our usual breakdown into Ladies and Laddies the Ladies kicked off the first end but lost by 2 points and again on the next, then by 3 and 1  on ends three and four.    There were a lot of close calls as some very accurate boules were thrown at times. 

Nonplussed, the Ladies retaliated with 1 point on the next end but lost 2 points to the Laddies on end 6 before regaining 3 more  over ends seven and eight.

The final end was a resounding 3 points to the Laddies which totalled their score to 13 against the Ladies 4.  Another good game and we look forward to the next one on Monday 15th at 10.15am on the pitch behind the library.  Come one, come all!

The sun continues to shine on us so aiming for an hour in the garden this pm.    Let’s hope for more brilliant weather tomorrow when many of us are gathering at noon for the monthly luncheon. 

See you there.  Ken.
