We lost 4-3 to Colchester. In the morning James beat Ian Burridge with a nice tp, Richard lost to a tp from Jack Wicks. In the doubles Rob Fulford went to 3b (super advanced) with 2 peels on David. We didn't get going, Mark Avery hit in and eventually failed 3b with partner on rover. Colin took the lift and went to peg, peeling Rob out. After a couple of turns David was on the boundary NE of 3, Colin was about 2 yards NW of 3, Mark was peg high on the W boundary still for 3b. After much discussion Mark shot, giving away a 3 ball break for David if he missed. He hit and finished.
