At long last………should I say it………….summer is here……..well put it this way………outside it was 28…………..inside maybe a little over 10………and the ball bounced.
However, what is not too lekker…………is that the so-called ‘formidable A’ ruffians have conveniently forgotten who holds the bragging rights……………..
Anyway we entertained a much stronger Winchester outfit and the results showed that………..First up, full of flu Pete Le Roux had to pull out all the stops to overcome his oppo. Which he did successfully 3 – zip.
On next promoted to 2………….is ek……….warm up suggested I was in for a tough one……………not wrong…….…..won the first 2 …….not easily……..lost the next 2………just…..….everyone including myself thinking……………oppo is half my age………….= trouble……….however, rose to the challenge………….comfortably won the 5th
On at the same time is our man Graham Vermaak (GV) and cappy Pete Filmore……….who claims cappy’s prerogative and plays at 4.
GV, not impressed with last weeks report………….decides he better up his game………..which he duly does………….didn’t see it………….but apparently a comfortable 3 – zip.
Not so easy for the cappy………he thought play at 4 = easy game……….…first game he gets a hiding of note…………..however, changes game plan and wins the 2nd and 3rd, …………but that was where it ended……….ran out of steam and lost the 4th and 5th ………….only just though.
Rounded off the evening with the ruffians at “Doppio”…………reminding them as to who holds the bragging rights………
Match result : 14 - 5
