Up the ladder we go

[tommo III]

Roffey CC 1, Windmill GG 4 @ Plough
*Tony Clasby 1440, Graham Daniels 3470
Dave Sands 2260, *Johnny Haigh 1900
*Jim Balchin BP, Michael Wilson 2000
John Tidy BP, *Clive Thompson 4600 
Tony Clasby (4plyr) 1030, *Mick Holmwood 4040

Games 2 and 3 were close: Johnny was ahead for most of the game - until Dave played it out at the end to leave himself bulletproof, 260 ahead.
Game three was a face-off between two Tuesday night Nomads, and 'Mister 19k' built a handy lead which he was then unable to add to for most of the game. Meanwhile Bedouin Balchin played his usual mixture of cultured shots and speculative ones to catch up, and had a useful break of 400 going at the end which if kept would have won the frame. But suddenly it was Jemima at the table and not Jim and she clipped a peg on the way down to a ball between the 20 and 30.  An obviously sympathetic Michael even allowed her a last go at the 200 to win, but it was all for nothing.

So our rather sheepish-looking superstar had almost unwittingly put us 2-1 up and, with the pressure now off,  our last two players - both with the break - were able to exact revenge for last season's Team Cup elimination.

A sociable evening, capped with a selection of nice soft baps (ooh err) with cheese and pickle or ham fillings provided by the venue.
