Well we were lucky last night to have a great meal to warm us up, as cool as it was, thankfully no rain considering what fell over the week-end, which was 70mls in 36 hours.
Even though it was on the cooler side, it did not stop games happening while dinner was being finalised. Val and Tim prepared a tasty meal of Tandoori Chicken served with Tomato Lentil Dahl, & Tomato Cucumber salad. So a big thank you to our cooks and to those that cleaned up after the meal.
See you on Saturday for "The Saturday Competition" starting at 2.30pm regsiter by 2.25, $2.00 to play winner takes all. See you Saturday! There are 6 players on a 1 point handicap.

We held the Wednesday night Melee on another cold winters night. Many of us stayed inside unless we were playing. Thankfully there was no wind so with our coats and hats we could play two good games of Pétanque. In between we were treated to a lovely meal made by Roberta and Pierre which included Honey Mustard chicken served with Rice and for dessert was Sticky Date Cake served with Ice cream.
Thank you to the Chefs and the Bar staff for keeping everyone lubricated!
