Weather not the best although we escaped with a few showers and 1 lightning Bolt that Made Scotty Jump to a height never seen before and Turned Vince Beckley into an Albino
Our 1st game in a hard section was against Scott DeJohng (Broadbeach) and Des Cann (Helensvale). We played fairly well but it was Scotty with his new Fusion bowls that done the damage on numerous occasion with Draw shots and Trails that took away any chances we had of winning this one. Chasing towards the end to try and get a score we ended up losing 6-15.
2nd game against Michael Turner (Kingscliff) and Steve Halmai (Condong) Winner of Bribie Island Fours and Singles before Christmas. This was 1 game I really wanted to play well and Grant and I did just that. We had a great win 15-6. the luck that deserted us in the 1st game was with us this game. Grants long ends seemed to unsettle the opposition.
3rd game against Ron McCabe and Delio Santarosse (A Previous WInner of this event) We started badly although they had pressure on us from the start. 0-7 down after 4 ends before the rain delay. We tried hard but just never matched them on the wet surface and we went down 5-16.
A good day anyway and nice to get home in the dry and think about the poor devils who won their sections and had to play post qualifying at 6pm.
