We are all looking forward to the Easter Carnival on Saturday 7th as it will be a different format - 3 bowl pairs and there should be some great games for anyone who wishes to come along and watch.

A very Happy Birthday to two of our special girls - Norma Schwartz and Lois Bishell.

Neville Schwartz has given the magic hands touch to our orbital measure and it is now in perfect working order. Thank you from all of us.
