Jean contacted Broadford Bowling Club via Facebook Messenger. They said they'd contact us about social bowls but nobody did. Jean somehow found out there was bowls Monday morning so we drove down.
Bill, Butch and Ian were there and surprised to see us. They told us they hadn't had Monday triples for some time. Butch got us a mat and jacks for a rollup.
The guys told Jean to go inside to meet Pat the Treasurer. Jean did and had a chat with her.
While she was in there she checked out the little clubhouse.
The clubhouse is a little way away but there's a good outdoor area by the green.
and toilets which is great!
The club has just one synthetic green.
It's the Jack Lang Green.
It's the plastic type.
Butch is the greenkeeper. He said the green's been down about twelve months. It's a bit slow but getting quicker. He was vacuuming the leaves off.
He puts fake snakes down because they have trouble with bird and rabbit poo.
Jean bowled first (she always does).
Mal had shot on the line then Jean took kitty for two
Next end Jean had two and Mal tried unsuccessfully to drive them off. She got three.
It was Mal's turn.
He scored a Resting Toucher.
Then Jean got another two to make it eight all
But Mal had to measure!
Then Mal got three for a win - first to ten.
