Bob Brown and I will be out to do better than the Shit we played last week. Look forward to it dispite the slow greens that will be again.
**************************************************************************************************************** Bob and I played Lloyd Nash and Peter Parker and dispite us not having any luck and Peter having all the luck finding the holes to go through, we won 20-16. Was not an easy game although we were well in control until the last few ends when they came back hard at us and we had to be at our best to hold them off. We played Very well today. Always a fun game against these Two. Brisbane Car Auctions Today with 2 Clients.
No Bowls Today but will be at Broadbeach Bowls Club at 8.40am and Paradise Point about 12.30pm.
Could Not Be Bothered Bowling Today at Cabarita. Or Southport. Up at 4.30am and Raining so more slow greens. Day off for me today until Thursday I think. Stay Home and Sell some bowls on the Internet.
Jimmy Cooks Partner had to work so I filled in for the day and look forward to playing with Jim as we have never played together before and I have always wanted a game with Jimmy.
*************************************************************************************************************************** 1st game on slow green. We played Ken McClelland and John Millington. Jiimmy had trouble reaching the head on the slow green and Millo ran at everything with good results. We went down 7-14. 2nd game we played Craig Smith and Ken Laverty from Chinchilla and Bribie Island. We had a good win 19-7 and we both played very well on the quicker green. 3rd game we only had to play reasonable to get into 2nd section. We were leading 11-7 after 9 ends but stuck on 13 for ages, dropped a 6 and 4 and went down 14-23 on another slow green. Disappointing day. Glad we never made Tuesday play offs as would have been a waste of time on these Slow Greens. Daily Diary - Cabarita Beach Mens Club Championship TRIPLES Semi Finals - Saturday 27th July 20137/26/2013 1pm Semi Final against the winners of the Morning game. Greens will run a little better than yesterday and looking forward to a win and making the final next weekend.
Pennant Trials for most clubs in Queensland Gold Coast today. I am not involved so am able to play championships without rushing and trying to change dates etc. Certainly wont miss Pennant as plenty of Pairs games on Saturday if I want to play but will probably have Saturdays off and just play Sunday comps. **************************************************************************************************************** Billy Creedon, Myself and John Turner played Barry Veneer, Graham Lake and Greg Goode. Barry and Graham played well up front all day and Made Greg "Goode Goode Gumdrops" job easy although Greg himself drew some lovely shots and played very well. Billy and John struggled early and we could just not get ahead and were always a shot of 2 behind and chasing. Many times holding numbers only to get cut down or cut out by opposition bowls. We went down in the end 16-23. Oh well another semi final defeat. If This was being written for the Cabarita News letter It would go something like this. Barry Venner and Graham Lake had the opposition drowning in a fine effort with "Goode Goode Gumdrops" steering the ship home to a fine win against the Highly fancied opposition. After a slow start, Billy "Creedon Clearwater had a Revival", and got a few close to give the opposition a fighting chance but Bernie "Slider" Lamberton and John Turner just had no answer for the sheer power of the great effort from Barry, Graham and Greg. Well done Guys.... Well Deserved Victory. Billy Creedon, Myself and John Turner play Ken Doolins Team today. Look forward to it but not the slow early morning Caba Greens.
******************************************************************************************************************** Slowish Greens but we handled it better than the Opposition. Warren Chapman, Greg Matfit and Ken Doolin. We were always just in front but had to be careful as they stuck with us and was hard to get away. Best lead we had was 21-14 after 20 ends but still got to 21-18 with 3 ends to go when we managed to finish with 3 singles. I played very well today as I was in the Mood. Bob Brown and I today. I arrived late after early work and was stuffed from the start. We played Alan Grosett and Alan Young. The Green was slow and it was windy. Lost confidence on the 1st end when the bowl would not turn on the narrow hand for our bowls. Down 1-24 after 8 ends. Lost interest then and we were beaten 10-36. Neither of us played that well although Bob put some on in the end and we got a few. The 2 Alans played ok, Certainly better than us. Anyway who cares.. Another game next week.
It was good of Lloyd today on Rink 22. He spotted a Diliberate mistake and let us all know about it. RALPH Had a Wrong Bias.... RAY Trewern had a Flipper from his bowling arm. Almost decapitated the guys on the next rink. However neither were as bad as the Shit I played today so I think I get the Unthinkable Award for today. Will be switched on for the Triples Club Championships tomorrow at Cabarita Beach. Will win for sure I am Certain of that. Will play well too.. No Auction. No Bowls so a nice Quiet Day.
