Sunday saw our annual friendly fixture with Bedfor Priory B.C take place. It was our turn to visit  and we had a brilliant day being entertained by our friends at Bedford. The weather was a little iffy with the odd shower, but not enough to spoil the bowling. As usual Bedford pushed the boat out and really looked after us. Good bowling, good atmosphere, excellent food. Thank you Bedford, look forward to your visit to us next year.

Yesterday we set off to Great Plumstead BC to play our semi final against Acle BC. The green was pretty slick and we had a tough time against a very good squad from Acle., losing on three rinks and drawing on one. Neverless we had a most enjoyable experience and we will be back next year to try and better this years performance, thank you Great Plumstead thank you Acle and best of luck in the final.
