MidGlos IBCHello again, I’ve just returned home from walking Molly and I’m delighted to announce that we saw our first six lambs of the season in a field in the village. What a lovely sight! More good news! Our Wessex A team beat Cotswold A this afternoon. One home rink won while both away rinks won […]
Hello, More exciting news about our youngsters – a week last Friday Dylan Williamson and Louie Hodges played an under 18s singles match where, this time, it was Louie’s turn to come out on top. Well played both of you. This now means that Louie has qualified and will join Finley Williamson to play in […]
Hi again, I’m feeling quite pleased with myself since I’ve just spent a few hours in the back garden tidying up, doing what I should have done at the end of last season but the endless rain made it impossible. The sad thing is that most of our garden lies at the front of our […]
Hello everyone, I can’t believe that a twelfth of the year has almost gone! But at least the days are lengthening. Our summer outdoor bowlers are already talking about the coming outdoor season. It’s really sad for those of us who choose to play indoors all the year round to have to say “au revoir” […]

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. Fortunately the less trustworthy folks never cottoned onto it. The teams for the England under 18 squad […]
Hello, I can’t believe it’s nearly Christmas again! This year has flown by. Even people of a younger age than the majority of the club are saying the same thing. Our younger members and the future of our club are doing extremely well. Fin was invited to trial for the under 25s England team. He […]
Hello again, I’ve just returned from a week-end away in Guildford with my daughter and granddaughters. She is an artist and was exhibiting at a Christmas Fayre at Silent Pool Gin Distillery. Since her husband is away in Valencia this week, I was looking after the girls. The alternative was to take them with her. […]
