The Drew Duncan Quaich was back in its usual spot before Christmas and it provided an exceptionally close result.
President Richard and his team of George Hay, Peter Galloway and Jimmy Niblock took 3s at the 3rd and 4th ends to build up a sizeable lead and eventually finished up by 8 shots, beating Bob Cherry's rink 11-3.
On the adjacent rink David Hope's team of Ronnie Peat and Gordon Todd (Steel was AWOL playing for Kirkoswald on sheet 1) were struggling against Ronnie Wilson. After 5 ends they were down by seven shots to 4, but a 7 at the 6th end and steals of 2 twos thereafter meant a final score of 15-7 and another win by 8 shots.
The third game was the clash between Euan Lawrence and Jimmy Begg, the top two teams in the Frame Salver. Euan was scoring in the odd ends and Jimmy in the even ends, but Euan had two fours and a three, while Jimmy had two singles and a two. The final score to Euan, Peter Reynolds, Robert Boyd and Gillian Watson was 13-4, up by 9 shots and just pipping the other winners.
Congratulations (yawn!) again to Euan and his team.
