Friendly people at Nyngan

We drove over six hours today - Monday - from Cunnamulla to Nyngan. They have social bowls on Tuesday morning so we wanted to be here in time for that.

Jean's been in touch with the club via Messenger to find out about social bowls and arrange for us to park our caravan here.

It's a tiny little clubhouse.

With a bowler clock.

And a quaint outdoor area.

Manager Jacob and Rose were expecting us.

There are two grass greens.

It looks like there were once three. The old one seems to now be a Footsal court.

We're here a day early so don't know which we'll play on. Jean picked the inside one.

Tuesday morning before bowls we met Rose's husband Rodney who is the Greenkeeper.

Our teams were Greg amd Mal

Against Kane and Sully.

Jean and Rod

Played Don and Sis. Our opponents were all really friendly, accommodating people.

There were enough players for three games of three-bowl pairs - sixteen ends.

We both did well first end. Jean got two.

Mal did a beauty.

Jean apologised to Don when she stole shot!

On the second-last end Mal up was 13 -11. Mal took kitty to take his team from six down to one up!

Nevertheless Jean and Rod won the day!

Jean gave the voucher to Mal because he always pays the green fees (and is more likely to drink the proceeds!)

After the game Sis found Jean a couple of badges. One from Bowls NSW 1980 and

a Nyngan badge. Jean was over the moon!

Rose gave Mal a can holder and Nyngan cloth.

Late in the afternoon Mal met Jim who said he's a State Champion. They rolled up.

Nyngan - we will miss them when we go.
