Great to be Back and Playing with Grant Osborne again Thursday Mornings. We played Pairs today against Ray Trewern and Red Edwards, Was a very Good game with Red on fire with his drives early and Ray with his Golden Arm we had to fight hard to get away. Was a few ends in a row that gave us a small lead and we eventually won 23-11. Played pretty well and Grant right back into it already for another good season.
Ray Trewern Has started a new competition for the Bowling Arm Bowlers. He currently holds the record in how far he can throw the Bowling arm after release of the Bowl. 7 Meters on the 3rd attempt today. A brilliant effort. Not many people will beat that this year seeing as there are only 2 or 3 bowlers with the bowling arms in the club. Its amazing the Fun we have Thursday morning. We have many suggestions for new competitons in 2014. Was suggested that we have a Pineapple Competition but Ralph cannot win 2 events in 1 year.

3 Great games on the Indoor. Special Guests today, Les Rootsey (Tweed Heads) and Mick Morgan (Cabarita Beach) Played and enjoyed it. It never took Grant Long to Adjust to the quicker greens on the Indoor and we both played well all day. 1st game against Billy Rae and Tony Healey. We Played terrific but found ourselves down 5-11 after 10 ends. Fought very hard and ended up winning on last end 12-11. Great game and we all played well. Tony Healy played some wonderful drag and draw shots to almost break our Heart. 2nd game against Noel Gray and Sam Granata. Noel backing up after 2 grueling days at Brunswick struggled a bit and we had a good win 16-6 in a good win. 3rd and final game against Leif Anderson and Brett Eade. Went down to Last Bowl and we snatched a draw after a very close encounter. Grant played a Magic shot when we were down 3 at 12-14 with his last bowl to get jack back and let us hold 2 shots for Draw, Brett Drew 2nd shot and I had to drive it out to draw or stay there for 3 shots. Got it out alright but went to ditch with last bowl and we ended at 14-14. Got 4th Place on Margins but shared a Rink win on last game. Great Days Bowls and Grant and I are unbeaten so far this year. See if we can keep it going. Day 2. 3 games 12 ends today. Harry, Serge, Myself and Charles Klaverstyn T.M.
1st game against Gary Lewis Team (The Bradmans) from Brisbane. Harry and Serge Played really well and I was still in sleep mode and was bored shitless and never played well. Charles also played well and we won 22-5 (High Game 3rd Round). 2nd game today against a Manly Side from Brisbane. A Tough game and we all played well but took the last end to get up 11-9. I had to play well and did and got all my run shots which was very pleasing. A win in the last game would have given us 4 from 5 for the weekend and we played Michaels side from Brusnwick Heads on the Slow Damp Green. Charles took a few ends to adapt to the slowness as we all did and we found ourself down 1-11 after 6 ends,. We fought hard and tried to get back but they played well and we went down 9-17. Good Weekend and Won $60 so that was good. Fours. BORING. Good Blokes to play with made it enjoyable and our opponents were fun to play against. We had a good draw and probably should have won all 5. Anyway its all over. Harry, Serge, Myself and Charles Klaverstyn T.M played 2 games here today. 3rd game was washed out and will be played tomorrow so 3 games Sunday instead of 2.
1st game against All people, Brian Lamb and his team from Tarragindi. A very tight game throughout which Brian worked extremely hard to keep in the game and we were 11-11 after 14 ends. We had game with a 3 before Brian finished us off with driving Kitty into ditch for the game. 11-12 we lost. We all played fairly well but could not hold our shots. 2nd game we played against Gary Flint from Edge Hill (Cairns). We Won 14-9 in a good game. Then the rains came.
