 A dry but chilly morning saw six member couples  arrive at the boules pitch today so an easy division of teams.


Ladies kicked off the first end conceding 3 points to the gents but they must have eaten two Weetabix each for breakfast as they romped  through the next four ends to gain the required thirteen points to win (including a magnificent 6) much to the exasperation of their opponents.  Scores Gents 3, Ladies 13. 

The game having only lasted about 20 minutes another game was on the cards and the ladies - being the current champions - started end one but lost it and the next by 2 points each but won the third with a single. 

Gents then reached their stride and retaliated with a 4, two 1s and a 2.    The ladies came back with a 3 and a 1 but then lost the last end by a single point.  Scores 13 to  5 in favour of the Gents.    A satisfactory ending. 

There’s another opportunity to play  this month at 10.15am on the 30th on the pitch behind the library.      Do join us for a laugh or two.      Ken.
