It’s all systems Go…..
One of our walks last week brought us close to a small public park with this bowling green. The game of crown-green bowling has always been very popular here in Northern Britain, particularly amongst our older generation (simply because they traditionally had more time). It’s actually quite nice and relaxing to sit and watch too, especially when there is a big match on, when teams of two to four go head to head from every corner and side of the green. Of course there are those that allow the phone to get in the way, or in my case – the camera :)
The game is played by two players, each player having two bowls. The object of the game is to get one or both bowls nearer to the jack (a special smaller bowl, bowled by the winner of the last game) than either of the opponents’ bowls. The bowls are delivered alternatively until each player has delivered both bowls. The green is square, varying in size from 30 yards to 60 yards. The surface of the green slopes slightly upwards, rising to a central crown between 6 and 12 inches higher than the edges. The crown and the surface irregularities provide fresh factors to influence the running bowls
Enjoy full screen and have a good week and Summer on this summer solstice day.

Christa1004 club has replied to Herb Riddle clubWe used to have an indoor bowls set-up in our nearby leisure centre, but it was closed after a year or so because it was hardly used. It's not something I've ever considered.
I did watch some at Chichester a few years back, and they seemed to be taking it very seriously:

A very nice picture, which I like very much!
I do wonder why the gentleman is playing with such a modern device, which I think is a 'portable communicator' or something?
Best Wishes, HBM, a nice week ahead, and stay safe!!
