Fun at skittles evening

Skittles-w500-h500On 19 April members had a fun evening at the Railway Inn, Kibworth playing games of table and floor skittles.    You can see a couple of members in action above (not it’s not the beer, just great technique captured in the shot!).  The food was good, too!    Hope you can join us for the next one.

 

Skittles evening success

Skittles at The Cherry Tree

Table skittles provided to be a great night out at The Cherry Tree, Market Harborough last Thursday.  After a shaky start for some members, with ‘cheeses’ going anywhere but on the table, players went on to complete 2 games: an individual knock out and a team game.  The practice paid off and several ‘tens’ were scored, giving a second chance to try again and score even more points.

Skittles evening – Thursday 18 October 2012

WI members are invited to a skittles evening at the Cherry Tree Inn, Kettering Road, Market Harborough (near Lidl), starting at 7 pm.  If you wish to eat, basket meals priced from approx £4, can be ordered on the evening.

It doesn’t matter if you’ve never played before, it’s a good chance to have a go and meet new people.  Come along and join in the fun.   Contact us with your name and phone number.

Skittles evening

The Bricklayer’s Arms at Kibworth hosted a WI Skittles evening on Friday 11 May.  Members had great fun playing both table and long alley skittles.  We found out that a ‘cheese’ is a hard, wooden lump that you throw to knock the skittles down: underarm, overarm and sideways all being tried with varying success!  A couple of people had played before and they happily explained the rules and scoring.  A simple, but tasty, pub supper completed the evening.

Everyone agreed it was successful evening and plans are already afoot for the next skittles evening in a Market Harborough pub.  Hope to see you there.  Details to follow.
