winning)

NO ONE DELIBERATELY PLAYS A BAD BOWL
When you are Skip, remember that the players in your team are
as anxious to win as you are, and that it is bad form to
remind any of them that they have put down a bad bowl. They
know that equally well as you do - and it hurts more if you
remind them of it by word, grimace or action. All bowlers,
including Skips, play bad bowls at times, and lose games, too.
|
|
|
|
QUESTION:
Sometimes after the last bowl has come to rest you think it
might topple over and finish closer to (or further away from)
the jack. Are you allowed to wait in the hope a bowl might
fall over?
Law 40 Deciding the number of shots scored
1.
The process of
deciding the number of shots scored should not start until the
last bowl required to be played in an end has come to rest, or
30 seconds after that if either skip or opponent in Singles
asks for this 30-second period (for example, to see whether or
not a bowl lying at an angle will fall of its own accord
within that time).
2.
If either skip
or opponent in Singles has asked for a 30-second period, no
bowl which is likely to fall should be secured during that
period.

Hi
from London!
I
am happy to say I have made it to the end of my first month here and all
is well. As I write I am trying to regain the feeling in my toes since I
have just got home from an after school netball training down at the
grounds. It was extremely cold and there were even little specks of snow
drifting through the air!
I arrived at Heathrow Airport on January 2nd in the very early
hours of the morning. My flatmates Alex and Maddy are both from Australia
and we are all getting along well.
Almost all of my classes are Junior PE classes and to get to the sports
grounds we have to take a bus. So whilst wearing a fluro yellow vest for
visibility, we walk the girls (holding hands and in two lines) around the
road to the coach each time.
I help to teach girls from age 4, in reception, to age 11. I also help
with sports fixtures after school so get to meet some senior girls who
play hockey and netball etc. All the girls have to call me “Miss Hocking”
which is cool, sometimes I’m Miss Hockey to the younger ones. Along with
the PE classes I help with some Junior School Maths and Science as well as
admin duties for a few other departments.
Last Thursday evening I got a free ticket to watch NZ vs England in the
Netball series so we went to the 02 Arena which was very cool and NZ won
making it a great night.
It seems my accent is much stronger than I had realised as some people
find it difficult to understand me, they have no trouble with the two
Australian girls but it’s all good fun as I find it just as hard to
decipher what is being said to me.
Best Wishes to you all. Tessa. |

 DOCTOR'S
WAITING ROOM
An older gentleman had an appointment to see the urologist who shared
offices with several other doctors. The waiting room was filled with
patients. As he approached the receptionist's desk, he noticed that the
receptionist was a large unfriendly woman who looked like a Sumo wrestler.
He gave her his name.
In a very loud voice, the receptionist
said, "YES, I HAVE YOUR NAME HERE; YOU WANT TO SEE THE DOCTOR ABOUT
IMPOTENCE, RIGHT?"
All the patients in the waiting room
snapped their heads around to look at the very embarrassed man.
He recovered quickly, and in an equally
loud voice replied, 'NO, I'VE COME TO ENQUIRE ABOUT A SEX CHANGE
OPERATION, BUT I DON'T WANT THE SAME DOCTOR THAT DID YOURS.'
The room erupted in applause! |
