Inlaws outlawed!

On a wet and windy night at the Catholic Club saloon, the Inlaws were in no mood to come second for the second time in the day. But with the Golfing Society thirsting for blood after been kept waiting by the slow hand tactics of the Cricketers, the match turned into a duel where no quarter was asked or given.

The opening pair of Taylor (21) and Tinney (28) saw off their opposition by 13 pins, leaving the wibbly wobblys to pull a further 9 pins. Mr Pastry (27) and the Bearded Whinger (30), despite the lateness of the hour held all the aces in this standoff across the alley.

With a comfortable 22 pin lead the experienced Gibbs (23) and Pinder (30) were never outgunned, and left the Inlaws tasting the bitterness of defeat twice in the same evening

Next week there are two matches at home on Thurday. First match against the Oldberries in the Front Pin Cup (8pm start) and then the Lone Rangers in a match which could have some bearing on who wins the league at the end of the season.

My apologies to the Inlaws. I was under the impression that the Crickets had won the first match. However, as the majority of Thornbury have pointed out that they won, I must concede that my report was somewhat incorrect.

Anyway, it's nice to know so many of you read my reports, and also that there are so many NITPICKERS out there!!
