Dimboola - a very true synthetic

We arrived in Horsham Friday morning and set up the van and annexe at the Showground. Then we went to all the clubs in town to get our names down for social. All that was left was to drive to Dimboola for a rollup.

Dimboola Bowling Club has had a lot of work done in recent years. The little clubhouse is nice.

When we arrived Peter (a selector) was cleaning his bowls. We told him about our trip.

President Robert then came to meet us.

The club has two synthetic greens.

They have wires above them. Peter said it's to discourage Corellas.

The Corellas have wrecked the front green.

There's an interesting sign commemorating the installation of the lights.

There are good permanent shades.

Seats were paid for by the council.

There's a great outdoor area by the green.

We played on the side green.

We loved their rink markers.

Jean bowled first. She remarked the line was very true.

And got shot.

Then Mal

Who scored two.

Jean then got two to put her ahead. We were three all going in to the last end. Mal couldn't help himself!

Pete saw all Jean's badges and went to find one for her

And a DBC pen!

Dimboola - they wished us well.
