We've been off bowls for a while. Jean's Mum passed away in early August so we had to race down south to Nowra from Qld. We were there for a month then we came home to Canberra. Our first game back is at Queanbeyan.
It's located at the council greens on the main drag. The clubhouse is tiny.
There are a couple of nice trophies.
Kathy and Chris staffed the desk.
Pat from Queanbeyan RSL chatted with Jean for a while about the state of ACT clubs.
There are two plastic synthetic greens.
This is the front green.
We were overjoyed to see a rare green named for a woman. The Bonnie Spendelove Green.
We played pairs together
Against Leslie and Jeanette.
On the green we met Elaine who was with Jean at Weston Creek. She's a member here now.
Jean started really well first end.
Mal held his own.
Jean was happy with how she bowled.
Mal just edged them out.
It was a very close game with great company.. We eventually won 20 to 17. We went across the street to the old bowling club site - Campbell and George for post-game drinks with the ladies. We talked caravanning adventures around Australia.
