New boules club in Guildford

Benny and Margaretha, David and Hazel, spent a great afternoon at The Guildford Tup. This pub has just built its own three piste terrain at the back of the courtyard.
Today they held their first open sponsored by Ricard.
First they held a French market, followed by Ricard tasting and finally a boules tournament.
Although both teams played very well they where beaten by some very good French teams from the London region.
Francois the owner hopes to make this a regular venue.

Re Enid Sylvester

It is with very great regret to announce the death of Enid.
She was a very charming lady, a great pointer and she always had a smile and nice word for everyone.
She will be greatly missed by us all, our sympathies go to John.

Saturday saw the club holding their annual Charity Day, this years Charity it "Talk, Talk" and was sponsored by Val. The organisation helps stroke victims relearn to talk and help hold conversations.
We held a raffle and bring and buy stall, followed by a melee entry fee £1 donated to the Charity.

Easter Saturday

Margretha has just informed us that on Saturday, our friends from Jersey, Fred and Elaine Paisnel made a flying visit to the club. They are holidaying in the area and just dropped in for a couple of games and a quick chat.
They hope to be visiting Adur on Sunday.

Borden Triples

Hazel, Val and David went to Borden on Good Friday to take part in the Open Triples.
Val says they where all soaked to he skin, but it was an enjoyable day.
After a poor start, the intrepid trio won the plate consularge and came away with lots of wine between them.
David and Hazel will be on the move again on Easter Monday this time taking on the open doubles at Crondall. Best of Luck to both of them, and also any other of our club who will be making the trip.
