Nursery Averages Have Been Updated


The Pig Racing night at the Nursery on Thursday November 22nd was once again poorly attended by the members. The ones that did bother turning out (The Usual Suspects) had a fantastic time and we raised £180 for the Club. Many thanks to: Martin Thorley, Andy Proctor, Malcom Lee, Dave Farrar, John Kennedy, Malcolm Savage, Peter Bradbury, Arthur Pickering, Bob Hindle, Tony Roylance, Ian Pittendrigh, John Williams, Irving Cummings & Malcom Thorley and not forgetting their wives and partners. Also many thanks to Helen & Amanda for helping me run the 'betting' side of the event. You can watch a video of race 4 at the link below.

Well done to Grahame Tonge for winning the 2012 Coronation Cup. Tuesday nights heats were washed out and it was decided to try and play the whole competition on Thursday. 18 bowlers turned up and due to the fact that the floodlights had to be turned off at 10pm it was decided to play the 2 semi finals and final on Friday night. Grahame was in tremendous form and after a titanic duel with Bernard in the semi had no trouble dispatching Dave in the final.
