MidGlos IBCHello everyone, Well, we’ve said “goodbye” to our outdoor bowler friends for the summer season. How sad but we wish them well in their various clubs and look forward to reuniting in September. In the meantime, there are still events in the winter season on which to be reported. Recently both Nathan Kitchen and Steve […]
Hello everyone, There weren’t many of us there but yesterday there were some very good finals played. Well done to all involved and thank you to Maurice Freebrey and Andy Price for giving up their time to mark. Charlie May acted as photographer and apologies to the folks who played in the previous finals when […]
Hello everyone, I hope you all remembered to alter your clocks. It comes as a surprise to my elder daughter every time we either spring forward or fall back. How she manages to miss all the reminders I’ll never know! Kath sent me a photo of a Tile which must belong to somebody – it’s […]
Hello everyone, Another week, another newsletter! First of all, I’m pleased to learn that the ladies at least read the newsletter since we had a record number attending the Ladies Meeting. Thank you to all who turned up and the apologies received (several due to Covid – thankfully, although in some cases nasty, nowhere near […]
Hello everyone, Isn’t it lovely to see sunshine and the days lengthening but the first item on this week’s agenda is sad. You will have seen his photo up in the club at reception. Gordon Brown, a former long-standing member has recently died. His funeral will be on 23rd March at 3pm at Gloucester Crematorium […]
Hello everyone, We’re back after a very enjoyable time at Potters. Some of us had been before and knew what to expect but all the newcomers were very impressed and I think would like to go again. Apart from bowling, there is plenty to do. A few ladies and Ron Wilks enjoyed line dancing (Sandy […]
Hello everyone, By the time this hits your device, we’ll be well on our way down to Hopton on Sea in Norfolk! The club should be a lot quieter this week with thirty of us away. We know we’ll have a good time but I’ll report on how well we do on the bowling front […]
Hello all, I hope you’ve come out of Storm Eunice unscathed, dry and with the minimum of damage, if any, to your home and garden. Thankfully we’ve escaped apart from some disrupted journeys due to fallen trees. Because of Eunice, the EIBA have allowed us to postpone the Mason’s game until next week. Hopefully the […]
Another week gone! Is it just age or is time moving more quickly? Sadly, we’re approaching the end of our winter bowling. That’s good news, I know, for our outdoor bowlers but it means that we have to say goodbye to a lot of folks for a while. However, if you’re finding the greens too […]
February already! And it’s lovely to see the days lengthening, snowdrops in bloom, daffodils shooting through and the gardens generally waking up. The downside is that, now that we are able to get into the garden, we can see all the jobs which we should have done before winter closed in. The parts which I’ve […]
