Game last night

Played for almost three hours. My team won six ends, the other team won one end, we drew for one end.

Mostly fun, but ye gods I was tired.

Good evening

Well, tonight's game was an automatic forfeit - I was the only one on my team that could make it. However, we rounded up three subs and curled for fun instead.

Each team got four ends each, points were 7 to 8. Losing by one point when most of your team haven't played together before isn't bad at all.

Red Five, Standing By.....



The target is only about two meters wide. A direct hit will start a chain reaction that will hopefully knock the remaining stones out of the house.......

*Snork*

Watching the adult curlers after Mhari's last youth league meet tonight. One team was dressed as characters from Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Playing against a team dressed as bunnies.

So I suggest to Mhari we get some fellow SCA, 501st, or Rebel Legion members interested in curling, and set up a team of our own.

Mhari just looks at me and says "Daddy, you wouldn't *dare* !!!"

She should know me better by now........
