Talbot - Jean finally beats Mal!

Updated: Nov 26, 2023

Talbot Bowling Club is about half an hour from Learmonth where we're staying. We decided to go and see if they have Pennants on and perhaps get a rollup.


As we got out of the car Michael came and introducedhimself and his dog Demi.

Today Talbot played against Dunolly Gold Miners. Dunolly is North of here. Jean chatted with the ladies.

Afterwards she talked with Jan who told her of her 18 years on the road.

It's an old clubhouse.

They are the Talbot Yabbies.

Addy designed their shirts.

There's an old, small, fallow green next to the clubhouse. They told us it cost too much in water to keep it and it didn't get a lot of use.

The main green is grass.

It's the McLeod Green.

All the people we met were friendly and welcoming. That includes Peter

Peter introduced us to President Jacko. He told us all about the club and its history. He said they own land around which they think they'll sell to put in a synthetic.

Talbot was ahead by one or two all game but lost by three in the end. Then we rolled up.

Jean worked it out quickly.

She was having a great time. Her arm wasn't hurting much.

Mal did his best but couldn't get the grass.

One of the Talbot women remarked about Jean's good bowls: "You can play for me next time!"

Last end we both did great weight. Mal tried to score one with a drive but missed. Jean got him 10 -zip.


Talbot - the nicest people.
