Another memorable defeat! (Bowls 2008)

If there is one thing that we can say about our Club - it's that we are consistent! Not only do we get defeated each year; we lose every individual match each year! On Wednesday June 4th, seven stalwarts of the Club ventured out to Crosthwaite to take on Kendal South Westmorland's team.

From the outset it was clear that we were facing an uphill struggle as wood after wood made that resounding thud as it dropped into the gutter. Richard was provided with a set of woods (and I mean that literally) which had a mind of their own and resolutely refused to follow the same line twice! The end was in sight and even though there was some sterling re-guard action from our captain, Stuart - even he succumbed to the wily Kevin and his cross green ploy.

The match over, we transferred to the Mason's Arms for a spell of fellowship, liquid refreshment, sandwiches and chips with our victorious opponents. Many thanks to all the members of the Kendal club for their warm welcome and not laughing too much at our performances. As Arnie would say - "We'll be back!"
