South Tweed - we love good skips!

Yesterday when we were at Kingscliff Beach we asked Terry again where we should play Wednesday. He suggested South Tweed and pointed to Dave, in the South Tweed shirt. Dave called the number on his phone for Jean to get our names down.

We arrived 8:20 for a 9am start. There were already a few people there. We met Peter in the office.

Jean stole his pen then brought it back. He came out and gave her a club pen.

They are 'The Sharks'.

It's on their Pennants stickers.

And the seats.

The club has three nice greens that were being rolled as we arrived.

Mal thought he could get a beer. Alas, no.

Mal played lead for our mate Dave who we met yesterday.

Against Jean and Kim.

We played on the Jack Bishop Green out the front.

It's a nice-looking grass green.

Jean's bowls and Kim's grey bowls started out well.

Then Mal took over.

Jean went crook on Mal for stealing her shot bowl.

Jean and Kim were down lots and Jean put in a perfectly positioned bowl. Alas, Kim accidentally took it out. Went down six!

Mal threw a long end. Kim asked Jean "Why do you do short ends when you play long ends like that?"

It was a tight game. Jean and Kim were ahead for a long time then Dave And Mal got a six. Dave played some very tricky bowls but Jean bowled exceptionally well and Kim was on the money.

Kim and Jean got up 23 to 17. We won 13 ends but that's not enough to win. We came inside for drinks and thanked our skips for fantastic bowls.

The bowls area is nice.

There's a nice memorial to a former member.

Peter did presentations. He mentioned our trip and wished us well. Jean and Kim were two points off the money.

South Tweed - yay! Jean beat Mal.
