There was a game of triples and a game of pairs on Tuesday with numbers down after a very busy weekend with the Mixed Pairs and Triples Tournaments. The winning team for the day, decided by Lucky Rink, was Leila Gosper, Olwyn Mayer and Susan Wales (skip) who got the better of Sue Sansom, Sue/Warren Bender and Dawn Kenny (skip). All was not lost for Dawn who took out the first Resting Toucher (at 11.26) prize. The pairs game between Heather McGourty and Clare Cork (skip) and Alison Maloney and Denise Holman (skip) was a great game that saw Alison and Denise lead 15 to eight after 12 ends before Heather and Clare finished strongly to draw the match 18 all, ends up.
