ON THE BOWLING GREEN:
Social bowls competition is held each Thursday. On our second week of competing my team actually won the finals - more a matter of good luck and good team mates than good playing on my part. Our third week here was the Barn Hill Championship which went over the whole week. Brian's team unfortunately was knocked out in the semi finals.

Lovely rock pools at low tide

Over 20 boats went fishing on this day

There are some amazing rock formations along the beach - you may have to use your imagination to see some of the shapes I see!

There have been many wonderful sunsets over the last few weeks. We often walk down to the top of the steps at sunset with a drink in hand and enjoy the spectacle.

As I mentioned, there is a Tai Chi group each morning which has quite a good following:
Brian and Neil - not quite in sync
Market day is each Sunday morning. Brian sets up a stall each week and has been going quite well. He has almost sold out of all his stock.
At happy hour on Friday night we join in a game of Left Right and Centre. This is a dice game which requires no skill, just a certain amount of luck. There are generally two tables of up to 20 people and it costs $1 to play, so the winner wins the centre of $20. Lots of laughs.
So, only five days to go before we leave this magical place. Then on to 80 Mile Beach for a week. We have caught up here with several friends that we have met along the way, plus the other regulars who come to Barn Hill every year.
