Sadly, Tuesday evening Boules in Westfield has ended until next April, beaten, as usual, by bad light. Undeterred, the Tuesday regulars retreated to a local hostelry, to enjoy the traditional end-of-season cheesy chips!

The boules court is there to be used throughout the year, and anyone is free to use it, at any time. What could be nicer than a game of boules on a fine sunny winter’s day?

It has been a mixed bag this year, with the rain seeming to prefer to fall on a Tuesday evening. We did, however, enjoy some balmy evenings, with a Birthday being celebrated on a particularly hot Tuesday evening in July.

Our plans for next year include the Wells Boules Tournament, and a long-awaited return match against our friends from Ambarès-et-Lagrave.

During the winter, we will once again be holding our regular skittles evenings. They are on the third Monday of every month at Mardons Social Club at 7 p.m. Anyone is welcome to join us.

Boules will return to Norton Hill Recreation Ground next April, and anyone wishing for more information, please contact Diana on: 01761 415155.
