Wednesday 8 August

As 25 bowlers turned up this week, we tried 5 teams of 5. Think it went pretty good, but takes a little longer.

Welcome back to Ken after his vacation in Canada and Bacca (regular visitor from Aust) managed to get out of bed and bless us with his presence. Shane James (Aust) on his annual holiday to Chiang Mai also had his first game since last Sept and hasn’t lost any of his form or style. We say farewell to Alex who is returning to U.K., hope you enjoyed your time with us.

The visitors, Bacca, Shane & Alex with Gary L and Oi were early leaders after the first game by 8 pins. But in the 2nd game the boys team of Les (228), Craig (272), Erik (207), Garry W (203) and Jim (204) went to a commanding lead of 36 pins. However consistency paid off and the boy’s team crashed in the last round (too many Tigers again) to allow Gary L, Bacca, Oi, Alex and Shane to win the day by just 11 pins.

Craig had best game handicap score cranking up a big 272, with 6 strikes in succession at one stage in his second game.

Best gross for the 3 games was Bacca with 502 pins. He grizzled about his handicap this week, wait until next week.

Les will be away for 22/8 and 29/8 and Gary Lyon will look after the book etc. Thanks Gary.

Catch you next week
