We hope it won’t be a blues night just rhythmical!

Petet J, Paul A, Elaine G, Tricia, Andy & Steve return to West Ealing to complete the R&B 3-2-1 competition which started 10 days ago and subject to a tropical storm mid way through.

At CP, Norman, Peter T & Dawn take on Kevin K & Co from Hampton in the quarter finals of the R&B Triples

Good luck to everyone playing

I see from the rink bookings that the club comps are going well  Keep it up!

 

Well Dave P, Gary & Peter J battled it out against Glen, Alfie & Norman in the County Triples Final yesterday in all that heat!

Unfortunately I couldn’t stay to watch as I was on bride and groom airport collection duty.

However I received a very excited text from Gary. “19th End. Still buzzing!”

Wow. That is an absolutely fantastic result! Well done, lads.
I’m sure there were celebrations at the 19th hole and tea for Dave afterwards. .
We’re really proud of you!

Congratulations to Tina & Cathy who won the Middlesex Area Final of the National Senior Pairs tonight against Broomfield.
It means they head off to Leamington on 21st August to play a pair from Bromley.
Hard luck to Elaine who lost the Middlesex Area Final of the Senior Singles to Tonia from Brentham.  Welll done for getting that far, though.

Thanks to Steve again for the organisation  and league updates.
A new leader in Richmond who have leapt ahead of last month’s lead, Marble Hill, while Radnor Gardens leapt from the bottom right up into second place. Well done!

It was glorious last Friday night. Not a waterproof in sight!

Good luck to Ann H & Cathy in the Ladies Pairs final this morning v Vicki & Lisa (Ashford) at Winchmore Hill.

Cathy plays again this afternoon in the 2-bowl final v Angela F from North London.

Alas, It’s been a bit disappointing for the CP ladies this year in the County comps in getting knocked out in the quarters and semis, but we’re all coming back with vim and vigour next year, determined to do better!

Good luck to Tina, Ann H, Nadine & Cathy in the Middlesex Fours semi final today.
also good luck to Norman, Peter T & Dawn in the R&B Triples this morning and to the Club team playing away at Putney Town this afternoon in the R&B League.
we’re expecting 3 wins!

This morning Ann and Dawn are playing in the quarter finals of the Middlesex Ladies Singles. They would both like to be playing in the semi-finals this afternoon!  Good luck to both of them.

Update:  Ann went through to semi-final where unfortunately she lost to Tonia from Brentham.
Dawn clawed her way back from 9-20 to 20-20 and didn’t get the final shot. Doh!

Meanwhile at CP, Shaf, Steve and Alasdair(?) play Triples competition.
This afternoon the club play Mid Surrey in a friendly. Good to have Laurence back in the team after his cycling travels around Spain. He has probably seen a lot more sun than we have done!

Joan was surprised when the Friday Night League teams came together before the start to sing Happy Birthday to Joan who was 90 last weekend! The cake was enjoyed by all!

After a nail-biting final end when they needed 3 to win, Peter played 3 brilliant bowls around the jack and despite all other 5 players trying either to get one closer or knock them out, they remained !

This puts the boys into the Middlesex Final AND will be representing Middlesex in the National Championships at Leamington!  Dave has been there several times but it’s the first time for Peter and Gary. It’s a great achievement! We’re very proud of you!
