Uneven teams of 4 gents and 5 ladies on the boules pitch today but we don’t care, it’s only a game. 

Ladies started and scored one point on the first end but the Gents replied with a resounding 4 points followed with a 1 by the Ladies before the Gents hit back with another 1 and then a 3.    Quite a lot of measuring was needed today as there was a lot of accurate (or accidental accurate) pitching with many boules landing within a whisker of the Jack. 

The following four ends rewarded the teams with a further 3 points each and then the Gents gathered another one giving them a running total of 12 points against the ladies with 6, so it was into the next end with a vengeance by the Gents to grab that vital last point to win.  Probably got a bit cocky as they were thwarted by the Ladies who scored a great 2 points. 

But it was the last end that gave the Gents that winning point making the final totals of

7 to the Ladies against the Gents 13.    Congratulations and commiserations all round, as appropriate, all with big smiles and looking forward to our next scheduled game at 10.15am on the 2nd September.    Good grief - September already!    If you fancy joining in just come along, we always have spare boules.
