We stayed at Jean's (Dad's) cousin's farm just outside Deni. We drove into town for some Christmas Eve shopping and a rollup at the Deni Bowlo.
One green was full of dead hoppergrasses.
We decided to do just first to 10 because it was hot and the club was closed for the Christmas break.
The box with the mats and jacks was locked so we used Jean's yellow jack and a bowls polishing sleeve for our mat.
The green was a reasonable pace but very, very narrow. Our weight was fine but we took one third the usual grass. The bowls left a track on the grass so after a few ends we just followed our previous lines. (BTW: If it's close in a rollup - we ALWAYS measure!)
Jean bowled Ok but Mal bowled better and won 10 to 2.
Deni - poor old grasshoppers!
