We're off for a morning rollup at Carisbrook. We are told it's all locked up but we are sorted!

Yesterday when we were at Highland Society Bowls Club we met Matt who rang Carisbrook and put Mal on the phone to a guy who gave him the code to get in.

It appears to be in the middle of a sports vicinity.

Jean peeked inside.

ree

It's all pretty new.

ree

Here's the lock. Luckily Mal remembered where he wrote the code! We were lonely all by ourselves.

ree

There's just one carpet green.

ree

We remembered to roll up north-south.

First end Jean didn't quite get the weight.

On the third end Mal had six and Jean finally got a couple.

ree

Mal was really annoying Jean with his good bowls.

Then Jean scored a beauty but pushed the kitty over to Mal.

ree

Jean remarked that she needs to stop lifting her bowls into the bowling arm with her right arm because it's painful. She said she should do it with her feet.

ree

Mal said "You should stand up all your bowls!" Jean got a pang of guilt. Yesterday at Highland she kept wiping the sand off her bowls and laying them flat. She was getting annoyed that she'd turn around and Laurie would have stood them up (and got sand on them). Now she realises it's a new bowls etiquette thing to stand up bowls of Bowling Arm bowlers. Derrr. He was being nice!

ree

Last end Mal put the kitty on the plinth then drew to it. He said "If we were playing that game the boys played yesterday I'd have 12 and you'd be minus twelve!"

ree

All alone for a rollup at Carisbrook.
