On a lovely sunny Sunday morning 35 Bowlers and 15 non bowlers either boarded the coach at CHPRSL or drove to Corrimal B.C. Unfortunately Jeanie was unable to go on the coach with us this time so her daughter Julie drove her down thank you Julie.The coach left the club at 8.30am.
Martin De Georgiou donated a lovely stole and Vita Sutton a pair of bed socks for the raffle on the coach Joan Vella won the stole and Fay Flay the bed socks a big thank you to Martin and Vita. We arrived at approx 9.45am and were warmly welcomed by President Bram and Peter. Bowls Secretary Jeanie thanked Corrimal B.C. for taking our booking at such short notice and she hoped everyone would have a lovely day.
A number of our group purchased the local home made jams and pickles at $2.50 each it was considered a good bargain. Peter called the cards at 10.15 and we went out to play until the bell at 12.30pm it was very enjoyable out on the greens quite warm actually considering they had 110 mm of rain the previous day. Dorrie Wong was very happy to be part of a winning team it must have been a while between wins congratulations Dorrie.
We were served a very nice lunch of either Chicken or Fish and salad with a bread roll. President Bram thanked the CHPRSL group for coming and hoped we would come again. Bowls Secretary Jeanie helped by Assistant Linda presented Winners and Runners up prizes. Jeanie thanked President Bram Peter and Old Joe. A special thank you to Maria for being so helpful in organizing the day Jeanie presented all of them with a Pen on behalf of the CHPRSL group.

WELFARE REPORT
As I have been in RPA Hospital since 23rd October, I have been unable to do the Welfare Report. I do hope everyone that was on the last sick list is improving and may you continue to feel better each day.
As for yours truly, I had a procedure to have the blockage in my leg cleared on 24th but had a few set backs with my blood pressure which required a blood transfusion of 2 units.
My arms feel like a pin cushion, and I am off for another procedure on Tuesday 1st November to have my wound flushed, under anaesthetic. I would like to wish you all a very good day on Sunday 6th at Ryde, hope the weather is good for you all.
Happy Bowling
