Wide Boys carve out victory at the Oak
Milborne Woodmen 408 Colliton Wide Boys 435
After a poor first hand for the Wide Boys of 44, which included a 4 from Steve Legg, and the bottom pair getting 3 between them (2 for Andy Fowler and 1 from Justin Hallett), gave the Woodman a 12 pin lead when they felled 56 pins in reply. But an immediate change of form with a 68 from the Wide Boys on the next hand saw them 1 pin up and over the next few hands Wide Boys chipped away at that lead and carved out a 14 pin lead going into the last hand.
Over these hands Steve and Justin re-tree-ved their low start to the game by getting stick ups, a 16 and 15 respectively and both had a 10, but Andy could not re-kindle his form or last weeks top score and finished up bottom score with 44.
71 on the last hand from the Wide Boys left the Woodmen 86 to win, a tall order they did not achieve, given the Wide Boys a 27 pins win.

Monsters beat poor Skimmers
Skimmers 354 Dewlish Monsters 386
It was the right night to play Skimmers as they hit their lowest ever score at the Gurkha, four players scored under 40 and on the 4th hand Skimmers only hit 36. Dewlish Monsters score would normally mean defeat but on the night it was good enough to give them a 32 pin victory.

Haime's 23 has the Imps singing
Brewers Bees 441 The Imps 471
The first hand was disappointing for both teams as the Bees hit 52 and the Imps only managed to pull 4 pins hitting 56. Bees again struggled on the second hand hitting 56 but the Imps game came alive with number two man Martin Haime having two floppers and scoring 23 (the second Imps player to have that score this season) two 13 stick ups from Barry Gosney and Keith Wyatt gave the Imps a 34 pin lead. This kicked the Bees into action and over the next three hands scores of 67,68 and 69 were hit and the difference was reduced to 20 pins. On the sixth hand the Bees hit 71 with stick ups from Dave King, Wilf Chainey and Andy Dunford, but the Imps unlike the previous three hands had the perfect reply hitting 73 with stick ups from Mark Ackerman and Andy Taylor to go 22 pins up. The Bees failed to leave the Imps any target only hitting 58 on the last hand while the Imps hit 66 to win the match by 30 pins. Top man of the night was the Bees Wilf Chainey who had three stick ups and scored 74 while Martin Haime backed up his 23 with 8's and 9's to top the Imps scoring with 71.
