We're staying at Robertson Bowling Club for three nights (without power and water). We've taken the 30 minute drive to Bundanoon to watch them play Pennants and hopefully get a rollup.
The only times we've been to Bundanoon before is to visit the Brigadoon Scottish festival. Jean loves the sound of bagpipes. Bundanoon Club is a pretty little club with a tartan carpet.
It seems there were once two bowling greens but one has been converted for Croquet.
The main green looks a little worse for wear
but looks ok to roll on. Especially since it's managed by volunteers.
Jean met Neville and told him about our trip. He went to ask Scott if we could have a rollup. Neville told Jean this is a small Pennants comp with just four clubs: Bundy, Austral, Taralga and Bowral. Just two teams - eight players.

When we arrived the boys were ready to play Pennants.
Against Taralga.
Neville and Keith decided to roll up with us.
(Keith, Jean, Mal and Neville)
We didn't score but we started out well with three shots on a very slow green.
We took turns to lead. When Jean Got the mat she made it short (of course) then she nailed it.
Jean showed Neville the badges on her hat. He said "We've got heaps of those in the shed!" He gave her one.
After a while we had to come in. Our illness left us buggered!
