Just one rink at Abermain

It's our last day with the five clubs in the Cessnock district. We drove from Cessnock to Abermain for Saturday afternoon Bowls.

It's a nice roomy clubhouse.

With a good barbecue area named after Clarrie Wilson.

It has a large under cover area outside.

The garden is pretty.

We've parked our caravan at the club.

Jean went up to put our names down and met Allan who Mal played at Kurri yesterday.

We came inside to wait for bowls and met George and Eddie.

There are two plastic synthetic greens.

Out front looks good.

It's the Colin Cane Green. It has an impressive tower for the name board.

There were only six of us. It was George, Jean and Mal

Against Eddie, Allan and Ralph.

We were four down then Mal put down perfect grass.

Jean had three then Eddie came in and took third shot.

Jean got shot bowl, one in front and one on the bank.

Kerry from East Cessnock came to watch.

Skip Mal saved us again. We were down a few and he pushed the kitty back to George's three bowls.

We were behind the whole game. Going into the last end we needed three to win. Jean had three then George came in and consolidated with the shot.

We lost a shot but won by one!

We came back for dinner. Mal liked it so much he had to get a photo with chef Joni.

Abermain - intimate game but fun and friendly.
