On our way down to Welshpool from Boolara today we visited all four bowling clubs on the way. We wanted to find out about their social bowls and take a peek at mid-week Pennants. After we settled in at the caravan park we took a little drive to Fish Creek.
It's funny. As you drive through the town to the bowling club all the shop names have something to do with fish.
Despite all the cars in the carpark the clubhouse was shut and nobody was around. We saw a piece of paper on the window that said Pennants was at Lang Lang today. That's 90 minutes away. We thought if we had a rollup someone might turn up.
It's a nice little clubhouse upstairs.
The Memorial Wall was impressive.
There is one plastic green.
With great permanent shades.
A bird watches over the green.
Jean had her go.
She did ok. We were both happy with weight.
Mal concentrated.
Jean said "Good grouping!"
It was surprisingly slow. Jean was happy with her bowls though.
Mal's was pretty consistent as well.
It was 37° so our rollup was short. As we were about to leave the first carload of Pennant players arrived back. 30 seconds beforehand though the bird fell down. Mal said "The Eagle has landed! " Above where we rolled up - we think it was keeping an eye on us.
Colin, Bronwyn and Peter came inside. Colin said they started really well in Pennant but ended up losing by five shots.
We said goodbye and left them to commiserate with each other.
