Will I Ever Win Again?

Another week of bowls ... another defeat. Only three more games to go! I hope this years petanque season goes better this .. well to be fair it can't be much worse!

It was Blaengarw's turn to inflict the misery this week.

We actually played much better this week. I certainly did. At one point it looked like another tumping was on the cards, but we clawed our way back into the game, and got within a shot of the lead at the halfway point. Two ends towards the latter stages of the game turned. Dad drove the shot wood off, and the jack went off the side about 2 inches from the dead wood line, if it had stayed live we would have had 4 shots, instead it was 2 penalty shots against. We also dropped a four in the last but one end when their skip played a great shot to make a count.

Ahh well .. tis only a game!
