Didn't know we'd get a game at Kootingal

When we met Jean's nephew Matthew's mother-in-law Kathy yesterday she suggested we take a drive over to Kootingal. She said it's a lovely little club.


It's a nice little clubhouse.

Mal chatted with Melissa the General Manager. She told us there's social bowls today at 1pm. We were over the moon!

We saw the line of ex-Presidents on the wall.

It's a long line of Pennants won. Too big for one photo. 27 in all!

And a good trophy case.

There's a nice outdoor area out the back.

It has giant guitars in the dining area.

Mal liked the sign out the front. It said the clubhouse was dedicated in 1960.

There are two grass greens. The back one is closed at the moment.

The green was being rolled as we arrived.

It's the Norm Butler Green.

We were surprised to see power boxes and taps for caravans at the side. It's for the Tamworth Country Music Festival.

We had some time to fill in so drove around the town to check it out. In the carpark we met Slugger who saw us yesterday at North's. He's a member here.

When we came back we sat with the boys.

Melissa gave us caps and cloths.

We played a game of Triples with Hayley as Swinging Lead. Clarry, Jean and Hayley

Against Bill, Hayley and Mal.

There were just two games.

Jean and Hayley went well first end.

Jean put a toucher in the ditch to protect from Mal's driving.

Mal stole shot from Clarry. Then they got 5!

Jean got skip's hat off after she moved the kitty then drew to it will her next bowl.

Jean had two then thieving Mal came up. He won 15 to 13.

We came inside for drinks and Lawrence showed us his great pictures from The Alice.


Mal the thief wins again at Kootingal.
