Odd number of 31 this week. So it was 7 x 4 and 1 x 3.
Best gross bowlers were: YUNG 479
JOHN. R. 476
and RAM 465. Well done.
So, no real outstanding performances.
Welcome for first time with us to Anita from Kansas in good old USA who I understand is now living with her Daughter and Son-in-Law here in Chiang Mai. I’m sure Anita won’t mind if we add she is 89 years young and will be 90 in April. She has dropped her bowling ball weight from 14lbs to 12lbs because she says she is getting older. Anita bowls a great curve bowl and had a strike in her second frame in Chiang Mai. A great lady.
Winners today got lucky in the draw with two in form bowlers Dow and John R teaming up with two high handicappers, Ning and Aor. Thet all played above theit handicap ratings and ended with a team net average of 215.3.
Second place, 17.5 pins behind were Michael, Jo, Nungruk and Susan.
We didn’t have enough baht for high game score this week, but would have gone to Aor with a net 241 to help her team to victory.
Be back next week - Les

Bowling Wed 16 Jan
Michael and Susan brought a friend and new bowler along this week and we hope she will come back.
Played 5 teams of 5 again.
Som See had an outstanding day, won high net score with 296 ( almost perfect game ) and bowled down a gross 514 pins (net 760) over 3 games. Well done Som, your handicap has been reduced from 82 to 62.
With Som See leading the way it was fairly easy for the rest of team, Mol, Len, Surachot and Lucky Yung to share the money. Total team net score 3134.
Second place to Jo, Dow, Jim, Rex and Colin 77 pins behind after being 37 pins in front at the last turn.
Shortest odds in the betting before the game, Ram, Aoi, Scotty, Gary L, and Les ran last, 219 pins behind.
Should have Gary W, JJ, and Phil Williams back next week and maybe Phil’s niece who is over here for 3 weeks.
OK – see you then - Les

Bowling Wed 9 Jan 08
8 teams of 4 this week. A good number to work with. 1st and 2nd prizes, B 800 & B 400, but no high score prize.
Once again Yung was the only one to break 500 pins with 519 and is now on 25 handicap.
Easy winners this week were Tom, Oi , (again) Keith and Yung on 2490 followed by David, Ken, Colin and Len in second spot with 2458.
Welcome to first timers Mr B. and Nang. Was also good to see Phil Hopper back on flying visit from UK for a week.
Top net game score if we have had one would have gone to Len with 256.
There should have been some photos on site this week but our intrepid cameraman Ted forgot to put the battery in his camera. Maybe next week.
