A strange kind of a night with David Lloyd's men dropping like flies - sadly three out of five left with injuries, and missed out on Pizza.
Al opened at no.3 and went one up against Paul Sherry, but Paul twisted an ankle in the second and had to concede in what should have been a great match, 3-0.
Gerald got the measure of Julian Fennema after going down 9-10 in the first, and was forging ahead 2-1 up when Julian broke his own hand in a moment of self destructive madness, 3-1.
Christy fought hammer and tongs with Neil Flemming for five long games. Neil had match point at 8-7, but Christy closed out 10-8, 3-2.
Mike had an easy ride against Graham Muir who was carrying an injury, 3-0.
And Chris was convincing against Alex Killick, 3-0.
Overall 5-0, 20-5 on points.
Then up to the committee room for Franco's and a chinwag, because burns supper was in the bar and kitchen.
Man of the match: Christy. A massive effort against an equally determined opponent, and our only man that was really tested.
Paul, Graham and Julian - we wish you all a speedy recovery, and we'll invest in padded walls for next time Julian is with us.
