BOWLING 19/5/10

26 players (2 teams of 3) and we didn’t get raided by the Redshirts as rumoured.

Winners were Jacob, Poung (again) Stewart and Jamie with score 2585.

Stewart and Jamie had a side bet on and came out of the draw in the same team. Both were trying hard to win the bet and so played very well and their team thus benefited. Result Jamie 689, Stewart 661.

Second place – Gary L, Rene, Shiela and J.J. Score 2503.

High score was Les 277. But not enough players for a prize (that would be right). He has an appointment with the handicapper this week to explain his game scores of 172 – 277 – 165.

Some handicap movers this week were :

Ben – 14 John V - 17

Stewart – 10 John Q - 14

J.J. – 10 Garry W + 12

Jamie - 10

On again next week.

BOWLING 12th MAY

28 again this week – perfect number.

Welcome to Martin and Shiela, British couple, living in Chiang Mai and experienced bowlers. We hope they will become regulars.

Also welcome back to Garry W and J.J. after 9 months absence.

Was some tough competition today with 5 of the 7 teams scoring over 2400.

John Q, Mike B, Corky and J.J. set the standard with first game score of 904 and continued on with 852 and 900 for a very good total of 2656 to win the day.

Second was Surachot, Dao, Gary L and Steve P with an also very high score of 2634.

High score prize to Steve P with 277 in his last game.

Very good performances from Poung, Ben, Somsee, John Q, Mike B, Jacob, Sherman, Dao, Gary L and Steve P. All played better than handicaps in all 3 games.

Don’t forget Corky, 2^nd week in the winners circle.

See you Wed.

BOWLING 5TH MAY

Just a reminder again. The draw is done at 3.45pm. Unfortunately we had to turn one player away today at 3.55pm. Also practice game should be finished by 3.50pm so we can get teams up and start by 4.00pm.

28 players this week, an even number for 7 teams.

Winners were Corky, Dennis H, Rene and Les with score 2492. Second place 21 pins behind them were Surachot, Fon, Stewart and Niki.

Kung got the high score 100 baht with 250 in her last game.

Only consistant bowler today was John V who scored 246 – 206 – 244. He thinks he’s in for the chop.

On again, Wed 12^th.

Bowling 28th April

After some turmoil during the draw and the ‘Angry Ant’ settled down, we finally got off to a late start with 7 teams of 3. The seven teams of three worked out pretty well in the end. Good performances today from H (again), Michael, Jacob and Dennis, who all bowled better than handicap in all games.

Winners by 29 pins were Michael, Poung and Steve J with score 1829. I understand that this is the 5th week in succession that Poung has collected 1st place money. Second place today were Sherman, Jacob and Mike B, right on their handicap score of 1800.

See you next Wed.
