Jean saves the bacon at Coonamble

Since we decided not to stay at Mendooran, we drove on to Coonamble. We know they have bowls on Tuesday morning so we'll be there in time for that.

It's a nice modern clubhouse.

There's a display of former Presidents.

With a hall of fame.

We came in on Monday to get our names down. The bartender called out and we met John, Trevor and Barry. Mal thought Barry looked familiar. It turns out he's Mal's ex-brother-in-law.

When we arrived Tuesday Audrey, Jenny and Terry walked in and they welcomed us.

Dennis and Audrey looked after the money. It only cost us $5 each to play.

There's just one synthetic green. It looks like there used to be two but the other is now a playground.

The new green is plastic synthetic.

It's The John Whiney Memorial Green.

There are quaint metal shades.

They said they usually get 6 to 8. Today with us there are twelve players. JJ, Jean (Skip) and Don

Against Rob, Ron and Dennis

It was Jarrod, Mal and Audrey against Terry, Jenny and Allan. Mal forgot to take a photo of the opposition but we met them all earlier.

Jean's team was 5 up then Dennis came in and knocked it back to one.

Mal dropped a beauty.

Jean was two down when she played weight and picked up kitty for one. She said "It's fun playing skip. I get to save us sometimes!"

Skip Mal did it too.

Jean moved the kitty and picked up a four.

Mal was very impressed with JJ's Parramatta Eels Indigenous shirt.

Mal won 21 to 7. Jean won by two but won the day.

Coonamble - a win for both of us.
