Today was our first day of play at Winnersh British Legion – the WWW Club's winter 'vets' – they are not calling it 'vets', because play is open to any age group. The melee was arranged, as usual, by Ron who kept all the scores. The pistes, which they built themselves, are very new, but Winnersh British Legion Club is now their new home and they are unlikely to get thrown off in a hurry. And they have lights! Lucky them.
We played four games before lunch in the Club which was opened specially for us and the food was prepared and served by Anne and her helpers - chilli & rice with cheese, and baked potatoes with beans & cheese. Thank you very much. We look forward to having you come to Petanque Wallingford in a fortnight's time.
And to put the icing on the cake today – two of our people made off with the winnings: 1st and 5th Prizes. Which I promptly relieved them of towards OUR lighting fund – thanks Margie and Moiya for your generosity! Keep it up … and in no time we will have lights so we can play in the leagues too, or on summer evenings when the light fades
