WEDNESDAY’S Taffy pairs at Wanderers Bowling Club, sponsored by Barnard and Jeeves Media, saw Ronnie Hook and Robbie Carr claim the first session 2+6, while second session went the way of Derek Stevens and Phil Hill 2+14.

Overall winners were Chris Pozyn and Johan Nel.

The 60/40 board was won by Ronnie Hook (R40) and Robbie Carr (R20), and the lotto has now reached a whopping R1,017 carryover. The meat raffle was won by Anne Williams.

The men’s interclub league continued on Saturday with all three sides playing away. The first side lost at Stella Park 3-4. The second side lost at Durban Collegians and the third side lost away to Northlands 0-7.

Congratulations are extended to Terrance and Pat McGlynn who made the last eight, and Steve van Rooyen and Graham Funnell who lost in the semi finals of the Pro 10 on Sunday.

Sunday also saw the any pairs competition take place at the club. Eight sides entered with five prizes on offer so the competition was hotly contested. Jimmy Neil and Jeff Bolt beat Richard Hendicott and Trish Overington to secure the sportsman’s prize on a count out 0-5. First session winners were Chris Klopper and Dave Faifer on a 2+3. Second session winners were Wonki and Chantal on a 2+3. Second prize on a 4+3 went to Robbie Carr and Thomas Simpkins, with Ken Thomas and Julia claiming the main prize 4+6. The scribe encourages anyone who is interested in entering a side next month to call him on 082-808-7793. After a morning of hotly contested bowls, the main club entertained members and visitors with sounds provided by Parental Guidance. The kitchen hosted its popular eisbein special – watch the press for the next sitting to avoid disappointment.

Friday’s various meat pack winners were drawn on Thursday due to the long weekend: Lamb pack – Linda Gibb, beef – Porky, pork roast – Sagie, rump – Mike Flack, chicken pack – Cave James, chicken – Chris Fourie.

The R800 snowball was a carry-over, as Terrance McGlynn was not present.

Friday’s lotto was a carry-over of R70. Brian and Anne had a chance to locate the joker, but Trish was unsuccessful, pulling the wrong card on their behalf but claimed the R50 on offer. The pool is now in the region of R9,500.

The annual Dan Draper tournament takes place this year for the 69th time from Monday to Friday, 3 to 7 July. Clive Symons and Dianne Swann can be contacted for any further information.

The club’s thoughts and prayers are extended to members on the recovery list – get well soon fellow Wanderers.
