So we came to Romsey on our trek West in Victoria after we stopped in to watch Pennants in Lancefield. They were playing Pennants against Kyneton.
It was busy when we arrived.
Jean checked out the club. They share it with the Golf Club.
There's a nice outdoor area.
Jean sat and chatted with Jan. Jean wanted some information about whether we could park our caravan in the recreation area. Jan didn't know but got some help.
Maree helped us out. She gave us instructions and welcomed us to the club.
We went back and sorted out the caravan. When we got back they had just sat down for their half-time break.
One of the ladies invited us to join in.
At that time Romsey was way ahead on the scoreboard.
They are the Romsey Redbacks.
The bowls club is in the recreation area. It has cricket, netball and other sports. It seems lots of the other sports teams around are also the Redbacks.
Ron came over to chat with us. We told him we'd have a rollup after the game. He said "Why not do it now while we are playing? We said we didn't want to interrupt the players. Ron said "But I want to get a look at you!"
Ron went and got us a mat and jack from the box.
The green is synthetic.
It's the Thompson Green.
Mal played pretty well.
He got a resting toucher.
Jean did ok.
But she stopped counting after Mal got ahead. We finished after a few ends and came inside.
We met Lorraine, a golfer, who tended bar. She and Mal had a long chat about everything!
Romsey Golf and Bowls Club - a roll, a chat, a snack and very friendly people!
