It's our last day in the Warrnambool region in southern Victoria. We wanted to play a game at Port Fairy. We were told that social day is Tuesday but of course it's the last week of Mid-week Pennants so we think we'll just get a rollup (and perhaps watch a bit of the comp).
We met Alan. It turns out all their matches for the last game of the season were away today.
Alan was setting up for a Pennants end-of-season party.
The clubhouse is like a nice big barn.
There are some lovely old photos from the men's club. One of the photos is of their last winning Pennant team. That was 1988.
It's a very new building. Very nice with a great outdoor area.
The two synthetic greens have only been in since December. They cost half a million dollars.
The permanent shades are new as well.
While we waited for the bowlers to turn up we rolled up on Green A.
It's the Stuart Brown Green.
First end we were pretty much on it. The green was slowish.
Neil, Ian and Jenny arrived and told Jean nobody had a win today.
Jean found it hard to get the line.
Last end she finally worked it out. Alas too late.
We came in to say gidday to the members. Many had perplexed looks on their faces about who were these strangers at their party.
Bob served us at the bar.
They offered us some of their food but we didn't want to intrude. It was great to see all the Pennant players come together.
Well done Jean nd Mal Thank you from Port Fairy. Keep Blogging. Alan
