Bowling night at Southwell July '11

The object of the game,apparently, is to get the bowls near near to the jack. This distribution looks more like a star constellation. Is it the plough???









Almost an action picture, but actually
Tony's been stuck like that for 5 minutes a) trying to work out the bias and b) trying to fathom out how's he's going to get back up.

Ian and Tony pretending that they know what's going on.

CHARTER NIGHT 2011

This is what the night's all about, Past Pres. passing on the jacket to New Pres. although the pose could be open to interpretation. Excellent turn out though, 85 Lions, guests, friends and those from Rotary.

Thanks to Vernon for the photos, one of these days I'll remember my camera. Just a glimpse of the band in the background. They played the right tunes and very often the right notes, but they did create a good atmosphere and more people than usual stayed to the end of the evening.

Watch out, Learner about!! It's hard to be inconspicuous wearing that jacket. Riemie's lost her dancing partner but looks happy about it and I'll leave you to interpret Tony's hand gesture

'No Tony, it's not that big'.Tricia looks gobsmacked. Mike, standing behind, is getting closer to the truth even finding an ancient measuring tool.

He's only been president for 10 minutes and he's already lost it. Trying to imitate a cockerel or was it the 'funky chicken'?

Is anybody actually paying attention to the Previous Past Prior Preceding D.G.? He certainly regretted mentioning Sid L Scruggs III. He must think we're a proper Lions Club!!

Where do you start with this picture?!! Ian initially thought they were pan pipes but was he also trying to 'flag up' his main point. His speech was flagging. He'd spilt food down his shirt so he was using this array as a 'flag of convenience'.

At least Brian thought my speech was humorous. A great night though to finish off a very enjoyable year with thanks to all those who gave their help and support.
