We rolled up in the tiny town of Wandoan

We're staying overnight at Wandoan on our way to Emerald to see Jean's old friend. Our van is parked close to the bowling club so we'll have a rollup.

There are 566 people in the town so we're impressed they have a Bowls club. A wake was happening in the afternoon so Jean got in and took a photo in the clubhouse.

Jean met Kim who said she was the cleaner and Bartender. She helped us out with information and showed us where to get some water for our caravan.

It's great because the free-camping area is just next door.

There's a plaque to commemorate the opening of the bowling club.

We saw the club has auto fabric shades.

As well as old colorbond shades.

There's just one grass green.

We waited for a couple of hours. The wake was still going when we got there. George a bowler came and found kittys for Jean. He said the green is really slow.

Mal put one down.

The first couple were pretty short.

Jean had a go.

Same thing though she got shot!

We had some spectators from the wake. They called "Red, red, red!" or "Blue, blue, blue!"

Jean thought she was doing really well until Mal ruined it.

She got her own back.

There didn't seem to be a lot of choice for Friday takeaway so we went to the pub.

A lady came up to us and asked "Did you enjoy your bowls?" Small towns! 😀.

We dropped in after dinner and met Kate, Yvonne and Jean. Kate and Jean are bowlers. They said they don't really have social bowls

Wandoan - rollup for a wake!
