Jean found out on Messenger that Warrnambool Bowling Club has bowls on Friday which suits us well. We dropped in on our way home from Koroit and put our names down.
We met Bill and Digger in the office.
The club is big. Many bars.
There were lots of players. It was pairs. Two games of ten ends.
There are two newish synthetic greens.
Both greens are in use today - eleven matches.
We played on the 'W.E Burns' Green.
There's a beautiful shade down the middle.
The club flags were out.
We played together
Against Ian and Cybil who are staying near us in the caravan park.
Jean started well. We won the first end.
Mal kept rolling heavy but got it from time to time.
Jean capped it off for a win 12 to four.
Next game we played winners Jeff and Phil.
First end we both started well for two.
Phil's bowling arm broke so he tried Jean's. It didn't work for him so he went back to natural with a (almost) good result.
We were down when Mal came in and gave us two.
Second last end we were eight up then they got a one. Last end they got a six. We won 13 to 12. Money is won on the 2nd game margin so we definitely were out of the money!
