Summer Time Bowls (Part 3)

So its time for another game of bowls... this time we swap the great lawn in my parents house for the crappy soil pit which is our back garden... and well I should have a bit of an advantage here as well because I've had a bit of practice... but my challenger may have an advantage herself due to the fact that the soil pit is a lot smaller than the lawn at my parents... and by the way my challenger who is looking some revenge as well is my daughter Bethany "The Bulk" Aspin!!! Once again I gave Beth a ten shot lead and she wins the toss of the coin and we get this game under way!!!

In the first end Beth seems to have no rhythm... but I seem unstoppable and take the first end by four shots... but Beth continues with her poor form in the second end and I was three shots up and with her last shot she is able to get the closest shot with one hell of a bowl... I'm shocked... and kind of worried... but I slog on anyway and win the next three ends... with the scores sitting at 8-11 I think back to our last match when at this stage we were all level and I think to myself I need to start bringing it!!! And when I think I'm going to win another end Beth smashes her way through with her last bowling pushing it back to her other bowl to take two shots and a 5 shot lead!!! In the seventh end there was a bowling master class... But it was Beth who took all the advantages... and it looked like she had it in the bag but on my last bowl I roll down my ball and get a toucher... but my luck was out because I managed to move the Jack far enough so one of Beth's bowls was touching as well... therefore its a tie end!!! And it got worse for me when Beth won the eighth end by one shot!!! So I'm currently six shots down with two ends to go... and its not looking too good... but I battle on regardless... and I'm effect pulls off when I get a shot in the ninth... but it still leaves me needing five shots in the last end to draw!!! Anyway I go for it... and my first three shorts go well while Beth starts swinging madly and all her shots go into the ditch... I follow her up with my forth while she rolls hers up close to my third shot!!! I  roll my fifth shot down and I'm sitting with four shots... but Beth rolls one in... I need to take this one out but i feck up and leave myself with four shots just... but to rub some salt in the wound Beth rolls one in right beside my second best shot!!! So in the tenth end I walk away with two shots... there for its a 11-14 victory to Beth!!!  Well done Beth... that was a real competitive match... and I think next time we will play we will be taking one of your shot advantages of you!!! Anyway we are away here... our Dominos has arrived... ARE YOU JEALOUS???
