MidGlos IBCHello everyone, Well, the snow didn’t come which was just as well since we had no volunteers to clear it had it arrived. Please, don’t leave everything to the few stalwarts who always come forward. The possibility of snow is not over for several weeks yet. I have realised that there’s definitely something to be […]
Hello, Have we got something to shout about!! Our young players, Dylan and Fin Williamson have won gold playing for England in the pairs against Wales in the U18s on Saturday!

Happy New Year! It doesn’t seem a whole year since I last wrote that. Hope you all had a good Christmas. We had a lovely time and Father Christmas brought some great presents. Once again, I won’t be stuck for anything to watch on television since World Bowls 2024 started on Friday. It is being […]
Hello everyone, Not many sleeps now before that friendly old man drops down the chimney. I always hated the idea of him getting burned in the hot chimney so we had to leave the door ajar for him.

It was reported by John Boulton that mud was hoovered off rinks 3&4 during the cleaning of the carpet […]
Hello again, I think you all know that I write this on Sunday so, at the moment, I’m thinking of our young under18s who are in Northampton playing in England trials. When I hear how they’ve done, I’ll post it here. For some considerable time, there has been great confusion over National rink fees. The […]

In the afternoon, MidGlos was playing GL1 in a friendly […]
