Macquarie Club Dubbo - Mal plays with the boys

So Macquarie Club in Dubbo only has men on Thursday so Mal rang at 8:45 for a 9:30 game. The club is the old Dubbo Railway Club.

At the table we met Bob, Turbo and Adam.

(Bob, Adam and Turbo)

The club has two grass greens

But they are painted.

They look nice.

There are owls guarding.

Apparently they are 'The River Rats'.

So players had to choose a paddle pop stick according to the position they were to play.

Mal selected Lead 12.

It was skip Bob (though they played 2-4-2) and Mal

Against Glenn and skip Vitt (Vittorio).

Mal's first bowl was 4 metres heavy. 2nd end he almost worked it out.

Jean had to walk back to the caravan to make Grandma Sadie's Tomato Relish. When she got back she asked Glenn if Mal had done any good bowls since she left. He said "Look at the score!" I guess the answer's Yes!

First thing he did though was put two on the bank. She didn't believe it!

Mal said "Gee I played some pearlers!" In the end Bob and Mal won 17 to 7. Bob gave us each a 'River Rats' cap.

Macquarie Club Dubbo - Mal said "This is a club where I'd fit in really well!"
