Plimmerton Rotary went Lawn Bowling!
Lawn Bowls
Bryan Waddle took charge of the proceedings this week. He welcomed everyone and paid tribute to our long-time member, Les Austing, who had orchestrated the Bowls Evening for many years. He thanked everyone for their support.
After the stalwarts among us had finished competing on the lawns, or just drinking and chatting, Bryan organised a corner to corner competition. After the first round, there were six finalists. A bottle of wine was awarded to the eventual winner, Graeme Tongs, and the booby prize went to John Barber.
Dinner, beautifully prepared as always by Elite Caterers was a delicious interlude, after which Bryan orchestrated a 'game' of Heads or Tails. This tested everyone's general knowledge and the eventual winner was Jan Phillips, the partner of our newest member, Bruce. Speaking of Bruce, his profile is now in the Club Members' database on the Intranet.
Finally, there was a raffle. Colin Whyte took the third prize but Graham Wallace walked away with the second and the main prize of a basket brimming with goodies!
Bryan thanked Philip Whearty for all the work he did behind the scenes, as usual, with preparation and setting up and President Kay thanked Bryan for creating such a fun evening for everyone.
Can you crack Today’s neighbourhood conundrum?
Without a bridle or a saddle, across a thing, I ride a-straddle. And those I ride, by help of me, though almost blind, are made to see. What am I?

What is first white then red and the plumper it gets the more the old lady likes it?
