Phil Capon and I had another 2 exciting games today. Phil Skipped as usual for a Friday. 1st game against Noel Eyre and Steve Melton was a thriller which We Won on the last end. Phil had a great game with good determined draw and run shots. Noel and Steve, Always hard to beat and going into the last end we needed a 2 to win as down 8-9. I drew 2" from kitty but Noel had a bowl 1 foot in front and blocking draw and extra shot and we would have lost on ends just getting 1 shot. I had a control weight shot and drove his bowls out giving us 2 shots. Steve tried in vain to knock his short bowl up and we won 10-9., Very good game. 2nd game against John Downer and Ern Smith. We led 9-3 but driving Ern played some good bowls and converted well on rink 22. Trickey green and wind and we dropped a 6 on 2nd last end. John played his best 4 bowls of the game (His only bowls of the game) Lost 10-13 although we should have won game. Phil played some good shots again but 2 vital ones never came off but its all experience and a good game anyway. Neither of us were going to win any money so it was all good practice. Today I played some Great bowls but also took a while to get going. Friday is a fun day and when I have to draw I can as proven today. Its all in the Mind.
