Though six members showed up for Boules the weather and flooding on some pistes meant it was cancelled for today. First cancellation in ages. Some drowned their sorrows in coffee! |

Weather permitting four more scoring days....the final day of the calendar year Wed 16th Dec.
will not be the usual competition day as the averages for the best ten scores for each member will have to be worked out in advance. We can still play of course. If weather doesn't permit play on that day we may retire anyway to the Coffee Shop for the presentation.
