In a strangely deserted Almondsbury Social Club, the Golfing Society met second division Generators in the first round of the Front Pin cup.
Crabbers (17) and the Leprachaun (23) got the Golfing Society off to a sparkling start by pulling nineteen pins.
Starting Price (18) and cup captain Ned (21) continued the Golfing Society's cracking start by gaining a further twentyseven pins to give the away side a magnificent forty six pin advantage.
The Accountant (23) was also in the pink, and along with the Builder (13) eased the Golfing Society through to the next round by 39 pins.
Next match is at home to Five + 1 on the 3rd January.
Christmas cheers

Alley Cat Strays demolished in late night shocker 123 - 136
The Golfing Society who have never been early night skittlers, were handed a bonus by being kept waiting for their chance to inflict an early season defeat on their home alley rivals.
As the clock ticked on, the Golfing Society kept in contention by Miss A & E (22) and the Leprachaun (26) by only losing two pins to John and Mark.
Despite the lateness of the hour, Crabbers (23) and the Capt (15) managed to pull back the deficit against Phil and the Kneedy One to leave the match tied at 86 pins apiece.
With the Accountant (23) and the Builder (27) both up past their bed times, the Golfing Society's anchor pair made no mistakes, and pulled an impressive 13 pins against Steve and the hapless Bobby.
An apology for the late start from the opposition captain would have been appreciated, but two valauable points made up for the lack of simple manners.
Merry Christmas to all my readers!

After two successive cup wins the Golfing Society returned to action against the high riding Lone Rangers, looking to continue their cup success and to improve their league position.
Gibbo (22) and the Capt (27) got the away side off to a good start by pulling four pins against Pont jnr and Ceri.
Unfortunately the Golfing Society middle pair of the Accountant (23) and Ned (22) were no match for Mel and Longy and dropped an unlucky thirteen pins to leave the Golfing Society nine pins adrift.
With all to play for the Builder (31) and Miss edout on the tote (27) kept Kev and Pont snr on their toes, but were ultimately beaten by one pin, to see their close rivals win by ten pins.
