recap , alan peg and penult , callum just through hoop 6 and no peels of tp , but plays a good rush after hoop 6 with partner , but misses peel , break all under control though - chooses to leave both balls at 4 back and will set a rish to eitehr 2 or 3 back - makes playing and watching callum good fun, never one to take conservative lines of play

callum has a dolly rush to 2 back and the set up for the peel to 3 back is quite tight , 5 yard roll in to 2 back - plays it well and has a good rush up to the 2 balls at 4 back .
anne fails 3 back - nick hits 3 yarder and has a break ahead of him after a good croquet shot loading 5 and getting a rush back to hoop 4, anne is 3 and 4 back ( 17) and nick is 1 back and break ahead , so a simple break to peg and off gives him a 2 hoop leave , but contact and a last turn for anne

pegs alan out, scores tied and he is 8 yards apart west boundary . - alan lifts white and shoots at the long manufactured double from a baulk , alan has been roqueting well both days and hit a 30+ yarder to snatch a win over jimbob yesterday - but misses wildly

my bad, callum hit alan and went out on a croquet shot to give alan the previous shot . sets leave , alan misses , callum makes dolly rush to rover , ends up 3 yards east , runs rover with no rush to the peg .
nick controls his break well to the peg and takes himself off the lawn - very good break under pressure
calum misses long range peg out , takes one off - alan misses 15 yarder , callum wins 25- 22
