Pelican Waters pairs for a change.

Jean's sister Alison will cook us a baked dinner tonight so we're staying one night at Golden Beach. We rang a few days ago to get our names down for Pelican Waters on Monday but were told it's full. We put our names on the reserve list.

We got a call as we were leaving Maleny this morning to say we have a game as a few people pulled out. The club's a few hundred metres from the caravan park but Alison dropped us off from her house. We arrived and Ian showed us where to go.

Mal left his wallet in our car so Jean paid our money to Carol and Stan the Man in the Games Office.

Jean sat with the ladies.

The Pelican is on the shirts

And everywhere.

It's pairs. We played together. Mal liked the club shirt and wanted to buy one.

We played against skip Ron and Bill.

We had all blue bowls but Jean's red ones.

The club has two synthetic greens.

It's that carpet Jean likes.

We played on the far green.

It's the Syd Lingard Green. It must be the same fellow named at Headland Pacific.

Both greens were full.

It was pretty quick. Jean was short but got it first end.

It took us a while to get the weight but we worked it out half way.

Alison came to watch the last few ends.

In the beginning it was 7 zip. On the last end we needed 7 to win (had six bowls) they got one. We came inside for a rousing welcome.

Pelican Waters - a good pair beat us.
