We have two ladies sharing Captain duties, Susie Bonnell the Blue team and Jill Bishop the Pink team.

It was a great afternoon with lots of laughter on and off the green.

The Pinks won overall by quite a hefty amount 95-69 . Their best team being Liz Boyle, Karen Hollingdale and skip Ann Capon. The Blues' best and only winning rink was Wendy Cox, Chris Radburn and skip Zena Johnson.

Our friendly match away against Lyme Regis was unfortunately cancelled due to last Friday's massive downpours.
