It certainly felt like it was the Wetsundays this week again but Thursday it suddenly cleared and the lessons continued at 4 to 5 as did practice for all on Friday afternoon.
Saturday saw the B singles go through the early rounds with Arthur McManus, Ash Warland, Dennis Donnadelli, and Ted Cullen surprisingly being defeated, leaving the 4 semifinalists to play Sunday Morning.
Noel Crosbie v Steve Lawrie and Mervyn Stewart v Craig Kennedy from Business House bowls whom was a giant killer on Saturday and massive congratulations goes to him for reaching the semifinals.
Mervyn Stewart proved too strong for Craig as was Noel Crosbie defeating Steve Lawrie in a close game.
The final got to 17-16 before Noel got the upper hand and defeated a gallant Mervyn Stewart.
For Noel Crosbie whom defeated a star studded line up and at over 80 years of age proved that age is no barrier in lawn bowls and the whole club is so immensely proud of him especially his lovely wife Carol who was watching every moment with pride.
Whilst this was happening we had 20 bowlers turn up for Sunday Social bowls and the big winners of the day was skipper Harry Quod with Bill Gordon whom easily accounted for the rest of the field.
This week the A pairs is starting with the weekend finals concluding the proceedings.
Also the 10th May car boot sale if filling up fast bookings made with Fiona Greener at the club on Wednesday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday afternoons on 07-4946-7656 or 0439-193-399.
