Rain Stayed away but was still windy but greens ran pretty well considering.
7th game against Roy Nunn and Glen Bailey (Musgrave Hill). What a Game and Bobby led Very well again and I played Very well to and was such a tight game at 7-7 on 12th end was still anyones game. They edged ahead and dispute a valiant effort they just hung on to win 8-11.
Twice in the game we held 5 and the first was the killer. Last Bowl on the 6th end Glen was way narrow with his on shot when they were 5 down, but hit a shot up from 4 yards out and instead of going straight through like a normal hit up bowl, it had all the finness of a Ralph Hunt Wobbly Wrong'n Flipper and found its was to the jack and sat there for shot. On the 10th end and holding 5 again , Glen had a good drive and killed the end. We all agreed we played the better bowls but things never went our way but was happy with the game all the same.
Still in 5th place and needing to play well and beat Peter Leon and Ian Taylor who were currently top and had just won on the last Bowl against Dean McWhinney and Graham Shillington and a win would see them home.
8th and Fina game. Green quicker after lunch and Bobby and I played over weight most of the game. Could just not find it and these 2 just draw all day and even when they were down Tails would convert brilliantly. We went down 7-26 and very disappointingly went from 5th to 15th after losing our margin and only winning 5 games which pushed us back to the Bunch.
Anyway overall 3 great days and Bob Played Great all 3 days and I did pretty well and we won some hard games.
Oh well a few days off now. Not much coming up til 19th September all Dayer at Pottsville apart from Club Championship Triples at Cabarita and Social Pairs around the traps.
