Lamby had to pull out with Shoulder problems so Jim Cook was good enough to step in last minute and we should have 3 good games together. Jim with Broken Ribs and worry from family sickness. We were going to have a good day anyway.
********************************************************************************************************************* Three good games today. 1st game against a Cabarita Pair of Brian Kent and Terry Fuller. Jim and I started very well but so did Brian and Terry. The green certainly suited their bowls and although we played pretty well we were beaten 9-20. 2nd game against Brian Moore and Peter Schofield again of Cabarita Beach. We were well in control but a lapse in middle of the game saw us have to fight for the victory which we ended up winning 12-11. We Both played well on the quicker of the 2 greens. 3rd game on the slower green again. We played Bill Anderson and Ray Chalmers (Pottsville). We led 8-1 after 6 ends but lost the next 7 ends and found ourselves down 8-17. A 4 on the last end made it more respectable but at that stage just wanted to get home after a good fun day on a lovely sunny green but lose a game and no one cares. No Money today but good fun. Good roll up action. Played some good shots but heart not really in it. Visiting Paradise Point this morning to pick up some Bowls and say Hi to mates but Not Playing as lots to do and besides have a bloody cold coming and want to stay well for next 10 days as numerous All dayers at Pottsville, Paradise Point, Mermaid Beach and Byron bay coming up. Don't want to miss them.
I still cannot believe the number of Lawn Bowls I am selling. Its great Fun seeing people happy they are being sold and buyers happy they are getting new bowls dispute some older ones they are buying but learners have to start somewhere and no point buying new when they will probably change once they get the hang of it and discover, Sizes, Grips, Colour, Lines etc etc. Brisbane Auctions Today.
Latif and I again…. Played against Chris Agnew and Janet who both played pretty well. We started with 5 successive 1's but being cut out of lots of shots by Janets saves. We dropped a 2 and 3 so were back square after 7 ends. We had a very good game and ended up winning 24-11 but was a struggle against these 2 pretty good bowlers. Managed to get 2nd money as low scores today and only 1 shot away from winning the day outright.
Latif and I 1st game against Billy Parr (With His New Aero 4H Bowls in his Bowling arm) and John Madden. We had a good win 15-4, Green ran well in the sun and light winds. 2nd game against Kevin and Jim Leigion. Another good win 14-6 although rained off last 2 ends that cost us the money. Anyway glad we played very well. Totally enjoyed Bowls today again. Its great just playing now when I feel like it and not all the time.
