Good wins for Euan, David and Richard

Euan Lawrence and his team of Robert Boyd, Donald Cattenach (S) and Gillian Watson continued their winning ways with a 14-3 victory over Ernest Mutter, skipping the Charters team. We can't say that he's won the league yet, but it's getting close - 4 points and 7 ends ahead of his nearest challenger Jimmy Begg with only two games left to play.

Jimmy had a fairly close game against David Hope, but David pulled away in the second half to win by 10 shots to 5.

Fresh from a week in Portugal, Richard Morrison gained his first win of the season by beating Bob Cherry 6-5 in a close game.

Match with Beresford Ladies

Thanks To Peter Galloway for the following report.

" The Gangrels and Beresford Ladies amalgamated Rinks met last night for the annual get together which was an enjoyable, social and spirited occasion and culminated in 18 sitting down to dine together afterwards.  Peter Reynolds' Vice Pres Rink of Joanne Ferguson, Ronnie Wilson and Isla Robison was the winner overall.  President Trisha thanked all the players and hoped that everyone had had fun.  President Richard added that there had been close results, but not for him, and suggested that Beresford Ladies and Gangrels join forces to keep playing standards and numbers high!  He concluded by thanking Beresford Ladies for arranging the evening and Limekiln caterers for the good food and service enjoyed by all.  Peter Reynolds thanked his Rink for their contributions to their win and said that he thought they were superb!"
