Thank goodness I wasn't asked to bowl the first wood again this time! Although I was the hosting Mayor, it was in fact the Cinque Ports Bowls Association who organised the whole event. Making a speech comes easier now and I am finding the words to show my pride in Folkestone itself.
Sadly, the weather wasn't kind and soon after opening the tournament, it poured with rain but the players were reluctant to come off the greens. Eventually they had to and we had to leave to open the Donkey Derby…..in the pouring rain.
By the time we returned the sun had come out and the play had restarted, with the Folkestone Team taking the initial lead. Strange how that began to change whilst I was watching.
What would you like to do next?
