Away at Half Moon

I returned from my trip in time to play but exhausted after a week away. The team played away at Half Moon and were hoping for a good result against one of the top three teams. It was looking good at 3/3 after the singles matches but unfortunately luck was not with us in the doubles and we went down 6/3. All told though they were all close matches as is usually the case these days with the standard of all players being pretty good. The difference in most games comes down to good judgement and sometimes a bit of luck.

Em & Em massacre 20th April

While I was away down south celebrating Anzac Day Memorial Services the team did a really good job on the Em & Em Bar. At home in Nr 1 Pub they were up 5/1 in the singles and feeling good with the whole bar cheering led by Joi and the girls but Em&Em fought back in the doubles to bring the score back to a more respectable 6/3.

No pool games were played this week due to the Songkran Festival but good fun was had by all in the water fight around the moat all weekend.

Chiangers and Bangers

Another close match away from home. Kim took the first game to a black ball finish but was unlucky this time. Garry won the second game to make it all square with one a piece. In the third game Fern managed to amaze everyone by sinking the black ball from the break to win. Ced was next up and it was another black ball finish where we were once again unfortunate. Joy stepped up to the mark not having played for the team for quite a while but was happy to fill in while some of our players were away. She was in trouble with seven balls still on the table when the opposition sank their last ball and the black to lose on a foul. Pom played the last singles game against their best player and just fell short of the mark. It was three all going into the doubles. Kim and Pom went down in the first game and Garry and Ced went down in the second game both close finishes but no prize, so it was up to the girls Joy and Fern in the last and they didnt let us down winning the final doubles to make the final score 5/4 to Chiangers and Bangers.
