southcotswoldramblers.org.uk Boules Evening Wed 25 June 2008 . |
||
| Thirteen
South Cots members continue their investigations into extreme sports . . |
|||
| At
the Three Horseshoes in Frampton with an evening of Boules . . |
|||
| After
a kindly local has outlined the basic rules we start to play . . |
|||
| Always
mindful of the need to maintain a perfect playing surface - thanks for
the loan of your gardener Mike .. . |
|||
| Various
styles are developed . . |
|||
| Some
look more French than others . . |
|||
| A
move to the other end of the court is abandoned because the sun was in
our eyes . . |
|||
| Techniques
improve as the evening wears on . . |
|||
| Plenty
of follow through from Heather . . |
|||
| A
more restrained approach from Olivia . . |
|||
| When
all the balls have been bouled heated arguments take place to decide the
winner . . |
|||
| Scores
are entered on the scoreboard . . |
|||
| And
we start again . . |
|||
| Contrasting
styles - upright and concentrating, nonchalant and hand in pocket . . |
|||
| And
Kathy, who organised the evening, using plenty of backspin . . |
|||
| Patrick
takes his place in the circle . . |
|||
| In
case of dispute Mike has an extremely accurate twig . . |
|||
| Who won? Don't really know but Olivia has some idea. So we all went back inside the pub for food to round off an enjoyable evening | |||
| . | |||
| Once
again Richard is responsible for the photos and captions . . |
|||
| As you can see, we thoroughly enjoy getting to know the South Cotswolds. We try to keep fit and succeed in having a good old chat. If you are interested in coming with us, see our walks programme and ring the leader if you have any questions about a particular walk. After two or three walks we hope you will then want to join the group as part of the national Ramblers' Association. | |||
