Monday 1st March saw Ron´s Sportsman “B” after 2 good wins take on Keith´s Tavern “C” but could only manage to win 3 games with each pair getting one. For The Tavern each pair went one better with 2 wins each to put a smile on Keith´s face.
John´s Catorce “B” also lost to the same score as the Sportsman but to Tony´s La Siesta who needed a win after 8 successive losses and it was Andy and Margaret leading the charge with 3 wins while for Catorce, crestfallen Vic and Sylvia were left stranded without a win.
At the ranch my Windsor “B” team with Gill and myself being rested had Bill and Sue in form with 3 wins to forge a close finish against Derek´s Mini Golf for whom Jackie and Betty sat in the shadows without a win.
In the Porterhouse Terry´s Sportsman “A” took 2 of the last 3 games to eke out a win against Mary´s home “B” team who with Mary off singing for her supper in Madrid had Sue and John showing promise with 2 wins while for Terry´s team Brian and Billy won only their third game for team success.
Shady´s “B” team under Dorothy´s control slipped up at home in a close match against a buoyant Toms´Catorce “A” who took their 8th successive win with 2 pairs winning 2 games while for Shady´s, it took the skill (or luck) of Martin and John to win all their 3 games for a close game.
Back at the ranch Russell´s Tavern “D” team eased into a close win against Richard´s Tavern “A” to hold on to second place in the league but Mick and Carol could only get 1 win, while Phil and Edna in between their oft taken rests in Benidorm won all their 3 to give a little bit of hope to Richard for a future win.
In the Oasis Ayliff´s home team had a fine win against Val´s visitors from Porterhouse with Lynda and Pam winning their 3 games 2-0 and the team going 6-0 after 2 sessions but for Porterhouse Ken and George failed miserably without a win all night.
Finally at Rosa´s John´s home team just lost out to Brian´s top of the league Shady´s “A” who had out of form Brian and Shelagh with only one win to help out, while for the home side John and Brian gave Rosa´s some hope with 2 wins.
