eljay 1,222 Report post Posted December 29, 2020 For the uninformed, that is Lawn Bowls  - the National Pairs & Singles commences at Auckland and North Harbour venues Saturday with what looks to be a huge (record?) entry received.   New Zealand in the past has been very strong in both the Mens & Womens divisions worldwide and some great contests are guaranteed over this tourney.   For anyone in the greater Auckland area with an hour or two to spare a stroll down to the local greens could be a satisfying and different way to enjoy the summer sun over the next week.   Well worth considering.

eljay 1,222 Report post Posted January 5 The womens singles & mens pairs titles have been won.  Not a bloody word in the mainstream media.   Typical - Megan & Whatshisname more important! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

eljay 1,222 Report post Posted January 5 Great to hear Patiti - up here the media don't give a rats about sport - newspapers are just gossip rags.   Most race meetings over holiday period no fields or results reported.  And they reckon readership has risen - ha bloody ha!
