First it was Five Crowns<\/em> – remember; “It’s not over till the Kings go wild”. El Prez<\/strong> is completely flummoxed by this game and had to rely on his neighbours (mainly Mother Theresa<\/strong>) to help, but he managed to hold down a potential third placing until the very last hand, you know, the one where the kings go wild? He was overtaken into 3rd place at the last minute by Nicole<\/strong> who was at or near the lead for much of the game. The winner was of course the former rookie (and current champ) Matt<\/strong> followed by Louise<\/strong>.
The backup game was Scattergories<\/em> in which, just to rub it in, Matt<\/strong> won again! This time it was Tara<\/strong> in 2nd place with a Roll-off between Wayne<\/strong> and Louise<\/strong> to break the tie for 3rd. Unluckily for Louise<\/strong> the roll-off went to Wayne<\/strong>. Your treasurer managed to score a PW<\/em> (personal worst) by coming last in both games. The other WHP victims were Peter<\/strong> and Genelle<\/strong>. Pete had just returned from a couple of weeks in the UK and was not up to his normal standard – he was in the grip of the dreaded jet lag.
So have another look at the competition scoreboard graphic – it’s Matthew <\/strong>on 250 with his nearest rivals Louise <\/strong>and Tara <\/strong>tied on only 30% of his score! We must put a stop to this at the first opportunity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
