We came to Toora on Saturday for their last Pennant match of the season (before finals). We arrived at 11 so we could have a rollup.
TUESDAY
We came first on Tuesday on our way to Port Welshpool. The club was closed. We met Joe as he rolled up.
There's a nice little memorial garden for Florence Vines.
Their story is interesting. Started 1960.
SATURDAY
We came back on Saturday for their last Pennants game of the season.
It's a nice light clubhouse.
Bowls memorabilia adorns the walls.
President Ian said we were welcome to roll up. He said he read our post on Foster yesterday.
Bart and Pam were organising things.
Beth and Wil were making sandwiches for the Pennants players.
Bart called Ken over. He used to live near our Wanniassa home. He lived in Kambah.
Toora will play Phillip Island today in Division One. We met Russ and Lois. She's been following our blog.
There's just one flat carpet synthetic green.
Mal was resolute.
We both did ok. Mal got shot.
Jean took her turn.
She got shot - just!
Mal got a full count!
Jean did a couple of heavy bowls then she worked it out.
We came inside. Norm said something about barflies so mal had to show him
We bought a couple of club pins.
They all sat around for drinks ( tea and beer) before the game.
The San Remo players arrived for Division Six.
San Remo James and his assistance dog Jack were ready for Pennants.
There was a light drizzle so we weren't sure they'd play. Russ told us neither of the Ones are in the top Four so it doesn't matter. We left to see if we could make Port Welshpool.
