Boston Over 60’s B 90 (10) v Sleaford Over 60’s 71 (4)
Although we shared the rink wins Keith Nix ensured the aggregate points for the B Team with his first victory of the season and what a win! Keith ably supported by Ken Bainbridge, John Millership and Mel Maddison stormed into a 21 – 4 lead at 10 ends and finally secured a 35 – 14 win. Alan Batchelor with Anthony Tabor, Graham Taylor and Keith Wilson also shot into an early commanding lead 12 – at 6 ends but then the wheels came off conceding a six and a five before losing by just 2 shots. Mick Rate, Trev Coulson, Roger Billingsley and Cliff Collin had a fine 20 – 16 win over Tony Stanley’s rink and Richard Keeling, Ron Moore, Alan Pitchard and Steve Wilkinson lost 19 – 15 after failing to score on the last seven ends. A good performance all round against a strong Sleaford team.

Thursday 13th November Dunholme 83 (11) Boston Over 60’s B 78 (3)
After being treated to a free air display by the Red Arrows on their way to Dunholme the B team started slowly and after nine ends were 23 shots down overall with three rinks down and Mick Rate’s level at 9 all. Then a great fight back saw them lead by 6 shots after 17 ends with Neil Harrison’s rink pulling back from 17-8 down to lead 18-17 then the wheels fell off again with Neil’s rinks dropping a 1 and 6, to lose 21 -24, Keith Nix dropped 1, 2, 1 losing 17 – 21 and Richard Keeling dropped 1, 1 and 4 on last three ends. Richard however hung on to draw 21 all after leading virtually the whole way. Trevor Coulson, Roger Billingsley, Cliff Collin and Mick Rate got the only win 19 – 17. So near yet so far – we go again in two weeks at home to Sleaford. Pete Sharman
