Questions without answers: Is it summer or is it winter? Do we wear lightweight clothing or do we reluctantly put on winter woollies? Do we or don’t we wear waterproof jackets?
Not to be daunted by the vagaries of the weather, keen bowlers always arrive in the appropriate garb.
The monthly competition sponsored by Halfway Toyota Howick was played in cool conditions and the presence of many bowlers made it a most enjoyable afternoon. Further enjoyment came with surprising addition of generous vouchers and snack packs from Linga Longa to the regular prizes sponsored by Halfway Toyota.
The prizes were presented by Ann Cacho, Club Competition Secretary. The winners were Howard Thomas, Bob Chetty and Ian Davies (missing from photo); In second place were Dave McLean, Dave Mainprize and Neill Birdsey; the winners of the delicious snack packs from Linga Lapa were Neil Bowles, Grace Mainprize and Bob Mitchell.
A surprise Lucky Draw for a voucher donated by 68 Main was won by Colin Brown. All the sponsors are thanked for their generosity. Members are encouraged to support our sponsors.
