Six of us went along from the Bressingham club. The weather was really nice as predicted.
Liz and Mick did well, winning three games from six (two of those against the other Bressingham pairs). Les and Darren pulled off the win of the day against a top pairing of Phil and Marion (especially after being 7-0 down after a couple of ends).
Luke and I had a torrid day especially against the better players with a couple of 13-0 losses in amongst it all but then, something magical happened in the penultimate end of the last game. At 12-6 down, we suddenly produced the best shots we had played all day, scoring six! In the last end, Luke had to produce something spectacular to give us a chance. His boule landed directly on the jack which then ricocheted on other boules to send it skyward and finish on the out of bounds line. A few shots later we had won the game - we felt much better after that.
A special mention to Luke, still only nine years old but his concentration levels were very good throughout the day and wasn't even tired at the end of it (unlike myself). The overall winners (Sophiene and Kim) won six from six and had a massive +60 points total.
