Tong Cup
This Junior Pairs competition, hosted at Havelock North, is
usually a two-day event but cold wet weather on Saturday
shortened it to one day's play on Sunday. Bowls Taradale
fielded five teams and the team which performed the best
from our club was that of Dave Roberts and Gig deRidder.
Well done Dave and Gig. |

Question:
You are standing on the mat watching your bowl roll towards
the jack. Sometimes a bowl finishes past the jack, sometimes
it stops before the jack. If your bowl is 1 metre short of
the jack is it high or low?
Jack Low or Jack High?

Celibacy
Many aspects of human sexuality are puzzling, take celibacy.
This can be a choice in life, or a condition imposed by
environmental factors.
While attending a Marriage Encounter Weekend, Fiona and
Bill listened to the instructor declare, 'It is essential
that husbands and wives know the things that are important
to each other.'
He addressed the men. 'Can you each name and describe
your wife's favourite flower?'
Bill leaned
over, touched Fiona’s arm gently and whispered,
'Self-raising, isn't it?'
Thus began Bill’s life of celibacy.

Ever Wanted to Be A
Movie Star?
When I put stuff like this in our newsletter you know I am
really kicking for touch!
Several years ago I used my
still camera to make a movie of four people bowling. I did
it just to teach myself how to join small movies together
and add a bit of music. Would you believe 1684 people have
viewed that movie. How dumb is that!
If you want to join the "dumbies"

dial-up)
