We drove from Camden at 8am this morning to arrive in Bowral for bowls with the ladies at 10am.
When we arrived we met Treasurer Alison.
Then Sylvia and Marian arrived to take the money. I told them if they are short Mal will play but they included him anyway. We chatted with the ladies - they were very friendly and entertaining.
The clubhouse is nice. It has a homey feel.
We had a lovely morning tea.
And we ordered lunch.
There are three greens. One is plastic synthetic.
The far green was gifted to the Croquet Club.
We played out the front.
It's the Wilson Green.
Jean played second for skip Rowena with Ros.

Mal skipped for Lead Bev and Barry.

Jean started bowling every bowl a Pineapple, then put Grippo on. Mal on the other hand nailed it!
Jean finally got shot - but not that close!
It was sooo windy nobody could control their bowls. If Rowena's team ever got shot Mal would take it off them.
They scored zero until the last end. Jean said "I'm not doing a nudie run in this weather!" We gave up on the weather after ten ends. The others finish after six. Rowena's and Jean got four on the last end after Rowena put the kitty in the ditch to make it 16 to 4.
We came inside and Mal won the raffle twice and got a bag of lemons and a bag of limes.
Then his team won the money.
Lunch came. Mal had fish and chips.
