This is to confirm the rumours going around about my decision not to stand for the position of President of  Mens Bowling Club at the next AGM.  I made the decision, that after 8 wonderful years of leading this great club, I felt it was time to step down and let someone else take the reins. ( I will say more in my report at the A.G.M.)
