1770 - 90 minutes drive for a rollup

We came tp 1770 Bowls Club for two reasons: 1. Because it's the only one in the region we haven't been to and 2. Because we had to fill in time while we waited to pick up our caravan from service.

We came back to Gladstone from Rossie's 50th on Heron Island last night. It's 90 minutes drive to 1770. We wouldn't normally drive so far (for a game or a rollup) but we had lots of time to fill in. Jean's been in touch via Messenger. Today's not a game day but Al will unlock so we can roll up.

Al got the mats and jacks for us and unlocked the door so we could use the toilet. We took a look inside the tiny clubhouse.

The green is synthetic - the pile carpet Jean likes .

It has those roll out shades.

They like their Barefoot Bowls. Shame we weren't here on Tuesday.

There was a bird to scare others away.

Jean scored first. She was worried it would be the only one.

The green was pretty fast. We just dropped the bowls out of our hands.

Not sure the score - think Mal won. Played seven ends

1770 - Al, thanks for looking after us.
