Old Mans' Marbles

[eljay]

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.

The womens singles & mens pairs titles have been won.    Not a bloody word in the mainstream media.     Typical - Megan & Whatshisname more important!

Nice little piece in the Dominion with last end and interview with Nicole.

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!

I thought you were suggesting that Race Cafe member "Old Man" had lost his marbles

If he has the best place to look would be in the ditch.      Incidentally a couple of good games on you tube yesterday cofc fom Hastings.    Think doubles this weekend.
