MidGlos IBCHi everyone, What a few days! Even if you’re a republican, you surely couldn’t have failed to be impressed by how wonderfully we do these special occasions! I must admit that I hadn’t fully appreciated the enormity of the occasion of the platinum jubilee before the event. I had just taken for granted that I’d […]
Hi, Although Monday’s date appears at the top, I actually write this on the Sunday. Just got back from Cheltenham having been to watch some of the open singles competition at Suffolk Square and a walk around the great variety of stalls at the Suffolks Sunday Market. Can’t believe we’re nearly in June – it […]
Hello everyone, Again, not a lot to report but just keeping you all in the picture… The first phase of the new LED lights is completed – half of the bowling hall is now done. The guys started work at 8.00a.m. on Wednesday and worked solidly until 3.30p.m. apart from a bacon butty break (supplied […]
Hello folks, We’re back after our few days on the Dorset/Somerset border. We hired a converted barn which had been finished to a high standard with the furnishings to match. Having booked several months ago, we had no idea that we’d be so lucky with the weather. We couldn’t have wished for better. On the […]

Hello 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 […]
