Although rain was forecast, it stayed dry with a bit of a breeze. The main news was Malcolm Lawrence's 48 points with only 68 shots (although he's far younger than this) so he beat the field by 8 points. Bob McWilliams was second followed by Owen Irish, Richard Bond and Oliver Yarde. A host of other 38s, craftely avoiding loss of crispy shots and then a plethora of crispy buyers headed by the amiable Tony 'the ball bloodhound' Biggs who had to be restrained several times. Congratulations to Charles Fuller and Lewis Woodcock playing with heavy crispy handicaps and not collapsing! Ken Reid presented a blue blooded ball to the honorable editor muttering something about Dominic coming along sometime. On another note, some of the scorecards are becoming challenging and it would be good if players could fill them in correctly, please. |
