NPC Lorna chose a strong team to meet us, each of the Canons making the game look very simple and throwing in plenty of peels and also gaining a bonus point. Congratulations to Francois whose handicap has reduced from 4 to 3½ A cold wind and rain greeted us in the first matches and never relented. DL Lorna provided a warming lunch for which we were all grateful.
