Congratulations to our very own Stephen Kirkwood, who along with Robert Maher claimed Gold in the Dutch Open Pairs yesterday afternoon (Saturday 14th May).  Earlier the same morning both Stephen and Robert had combined with Marian Lynch and Rosie Brown to take the Gold in the Mixed Fours.  From everyone at Old Bleach we congratulate you all on a great performance.

A belated Happy Birthday to Stephen Kirkwood who celebrated (in style) his 19th Birthday last Saturday 6th February.  We hope you had a great day

On behalf of everyone at the club can we wish Nigel McNally a belated Happy Birthday.  Nigel reminded me last weekend that I had forgotten his birthday and that he just wanted to remind everyone that he was now 56 years young and looking forward to his second year competing the Senior Fours.  Many happy returns Nigel we hope you had a great day.

We have just taken delivery of our new Baroness Mower from Cyril Johnston Ltd and would like to thank Antrim and Newtownabbey Borough Council for funding 50% of the costs as part of their Grant Aid programme for specialised equipment.
