Out on the town!

Last night we took ourselves off to the Lighthouse, Poole's centre for the Arts for "The Last Night of the Christmas Proms" by the Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra.
It made a nice change to "dress up" and on arrival we started off the evening with drinks in the bar before taking our seats in the Concert Hall.
The seats were excellent, four rows from the front. The Hall had been decked out with festive decorations and a light show on the sides and rear of the stage.
We have been to a BSO concert before and they have a very good reputation. The first half of the concert consisted of a mixture of Prom favourites and Christmas music. We had pre-ordered drinks for the interval, very civilised and then returned for the second half of audience participation joining in the singing and waving our light sticks.
All in all an excellent night out.

Winning streak falters!

The Verwood Potters triples team winning streak faltered last Friday when they lost to the Verwood Foresters team at Verwood. The Potters suffered from no luck and could not up their game when it was needed against their rivals from the home Club. The Potters "Fours" managed to salvage some of the match points with a win over the opposite team and earned 2 points.
This leaves the Potters still in second place in the League with the Foresters moving up to third.

Triples impress - for how long ?

Last Sunday saw the Verwood Potters gain an away draw against Flight Falcons who are one of the top clubs in the League. This puts them into second place in the Division.
Once again the triples team captained by myself, led the way and have not lost any of their matches so far.

Today, Sunday, the winning streak continued with a win on both mat's away against Poole Park, earning us the full 6 points.
On Friday we play the other Verwood team. This team is considered the "best". It' all on the night!
