MidGlos IBCHello everyone, I’ll start with the uplifting news before the yet more sad news. I was pleased to see that a good number of folks made the effort to wear something pink on Friday in support of breast cancer awareness, particularly since so many of our ladies have been affected by it. On Friday evening […]
Hello all, Once again there is some sad news. Those of you who’ve been into the club this week will have seen that Shirley Cromie has died after a short illness. Another shock since she was always so spritely and, like Hugh, she’d been playing outdoors all summer. For many years she was the club […]
Hello everyone, Some sad news to begin with, I’m afraid. The oldest member of our club, Hugh Hart died on Thursday, I think. He was 94 but still playing both outdoors and in. In fact he played on Monday. Such a shock but so good that he was active to the end. He was in […]
Hello again, By the time you read this, we’ll be well on our way to Potters to compete in a mid-week tournament. So excited. Really looking forward to the break. In the meantime, the sheets are ready for you to sign up for the club competitions. Go on. Have a go. It’s a worthwhile experience, […]
Hello everyone, Wow! Doesn’t our wonderful country do things well! Yesterday, everything was timed, and carried out, to absolute perfection. What a sendoff for a such a loyal and exemplary monarch! King Charles has a hard act to follow but he’s had an excellent example from his very dear mother. Today is the belated start […]
Hello everyone at this sad time, For the majority of us, Queen Elizabeth II was the only Sovereign we’ve ever known. Although we knew her days were numbered, it has still come as a shock to the Nation. As a mark of respect, we will of course, be closing the club on 19th September, the […]
Hello, As I announced last week, we had a board meeting on Thursday where week-end opening was discussed. Having correlated the information gained from the questionnaire returns, as it stands, the number of members prepared to commit to week-end bowling is low. Let me clarify “week-end opening”. This would be in addition to the week-end […]
Hello again, There is a board meeting being held this Thursday afternoon after the Thursday morning league game when week-end opening is on the agenda. If you still haven’t completed the questionnaire online or filled in a printed copy at the club, please make sure that your opinion is heard. We are looking for genuine […]
Hi everyone, Thankfully the rain did indeed come but not enough to spare us a hosepipe ban if you’re with Thames Water as we are! Just four weeks to go now until the winter season begins. Don’t forget to pick up your registration documents from reception to save the expense of postage. Payment is due […]
Hello everyone, It’s been another scorcher this week with more to come! The beauty of indoor bowling is that it’s air-conditioned and very pleasant. We’ve even had members coming in just to sit and watch and have a coffee in comfort rather than be at home sweating. The new registration packs are now ready for […]
