Imbil - we wish we'd met them

So Jean's been communicating via Messenger with Tina from Imbil Community and Sports Club (who's overseas at the moment) trying to arrange a rollup for us on the one grass green.

Tina said if we turn up Thursday, Friday or Saturday there'd be people there and we could even get food. We came at 3:30. The sign said they were open from 11 on a Saturday. Nobody was home.

The club is situated with Yabba Creek (in The Mary Valley) at the back. Quite nice.

It has a pleasant verandah which overlooks the creek.

We couldn't get in (didn't try) but took a photo from outside.

The club is quite quaint. The shades seem to be up all the time.

It has a little weather shed off to the side.

Jean took a walk round the back and found a mat and jacks.

Now for the green...it looked like it hasn't been mown for days.

We threw down the jack - it took some muscle. All our bowls were short.

After a while we got the hang of it. On the fourth end Jean asked Mal "Had enough?" Mal said "Yes! This is doing my head in!"

Mal put the mat and jacks back.

It's a pretty little town with a nice little clubhouse. We figured they were all volunteers - hence the state of the green.

Imbil - it's a shame, we'd like to have seen more.
