Hi to all you potty followers
Another week and another opportunity as we entertained the Marquis B hoping to get a few more points on the board. We didn’t play at all well the previous week and were hoping for a serious improvement.
With Glynn and Goochy on first we got off to a good solid start as they won without ever being in trouble but we were soon pegged back as Shoot-em-up and Yid went down to a quick finish. A good tidy game from Bungle and Me, with a 140 from Bill and a considerably quicker finish than last week took us back ahead before Hos and Oz were unlucky to lose the last pairs to leave us all square.
Into the singles and a storming start saw a win for Glynn (eventually) followed by the highlight of the night with Hos hitting a superb 133 finish to get us 2 games ahead. Ozzie was our third player and he seemed to grow in confidence as the game went on (probably because his opponent took 5 throws to score 100 at one point). That said his confidence was so high it was bordering on cockiness as he took 63 out with a 13 bull! A tidy game and a slow finish from Moysie secured us the point before this years in form player Bungle suffered a rare defeat to a 78 finish.
Two games left to find a win and yours truly found a pretty steady game before easing off the gas completely under 150. fortunately I had done enough by then to get the win. The legend that is Goochy tidied up the last game to give us a solid 8-4 win and a much better overall performance than the previous week.
We are managing to rack up a few points and hoping for a good performance this week when we visit the Queens Head for what should be a good close match
See you all soon
