When Jean lived in Gulgong in the 70's she visited Dunedoo quite often. We've had a lovely time to date in Nyngan, Gilgandra, Narromine and Trangie. Today we're off to Dunedoo where we hope to get a Sunday afternoon game.
It's a comfy clubhouse.
There's a cute cartoon of the clubhouse.
The plaque says the club was extended in '72.
When we arrived at the caravan park Mal rang to discover that they only play on Wednesday. We came and met Sam (President), Jane and Jim. Jean told them she feels at home here. Sam and Jim decided to roll up with us.
They found some old bowls to play with.
There are two nice grass greens.
We played on Green One. Sam told us they don't have enough players to play Pennants now. Those who want to play at Gulgong.
Tom and Alan the volunteer Greenkeepers came out to watch us for a while.
Mal played with Sam. Sam skipped.
The wind was wicked but he worked it out.
Jean felt pretty confident.
She skipped Jim and they scored a couple.
We met Terese who organises all the Swan Bowls Days. Dunedoo is the Black Swan town.
Mal kept asking Jean "Where the hell did that shot come from!"
He did his best.
But we did twelve ends. Jim told us he hasn't played sine he was fourteen. He and Jean won by four. He said "I've got bragging rights. I beat the President!"
We stayed for a couple of drinks then walked back to the caravan park.
