Final results were 48-57, despite us winning on two rinks and being just one point down at 10 ends.

It all went pear-shaped on one rink after that, as their skip and number 2 got to know our rink 2 better than we did. Ah me! That’s bowls for you!

Nevertheless, a good time was had by all, and we enjoyed a delicious tea thanks to Jim, Wendy, Sydney and Dorothy.

It was good to see Dorothy up and about after her operation. Dennis attended as reserve. And Bill acted as cheerleader.
