May
At the
suggestion of a neighbour, and thanks also to his kind loan of a set of woods,
Roger joined a bowling club – at Overbury, in Worcestershire, about 15 minutes
drive from Toddington. The pace of the
game should suit him more than tennis, which he stopped playing over ten years
ago. But, as he is beginning to find
out, there is still plenty of scope for cunning ball skills.
The cool
but dry spring changed into a very warm weekend at the end of May: coincidentally Helen was visiting, so we got
the barbecue out, and also took her on a couple of long walks.
