We won all the morning games,
so were 3 - 0 up at lunch. About half hour
into the afternoon session the heavens opened:
heavy rain, but we carried on, only stopping
when the thunder and lighting came. After a
bit the thunder and lighting passed and the
rain started to ease, so we continued
and all got very wet, but then the
sun came out again. 2 wins and 2 losses in the
afternoon, so overall a good win.
Special mention to Will, who in his 1st
match for the Firs, won both matches.
