Fraser Cup - Halfway Point

Five games played and five games to go.  Setting the pace is Euan Lawrence's team who had a convincing 13 - 2 victory over their closest rival Jimmy Begg. Five games played and five games won.  Will they continue their good form in the second half?  Time will tell!

Ronnie Wilson skipped Robert Charters' team to a 9-5 victory over Bob Cherry, who were skipped by Francis McCrossin.

At the lower end of the table, David Hope's team recorded their first victory, beating Richard Morrison by 9 shots to 1. Starring for David's team was Steel McFadzean, resplendent after a successful day at the races. New uniform for the club?

Can you spot the Gangrel?

Thanks to Gillian Watson who has sent us an old photo of The Gangrels.  As you probably know, Gillian is the daughter of John Watson, one of the original "Boys Rink" who founded our club in February 1940.

The date is not known, but we can see a few weel kent faces, just a wee bit younger than they look today.

How many can you spot and can anyone guess the year? Click on the photo to expand.
