Lawn Bowling

The GFC (Global Financial Crisis) has not hit our entertainment budget yet. A couple of weeks ago we had a Project Management seminar, with around 50 PMs and a very pleasant dinner in the evening, with a pub-crawl to follow. I now know how much it costs to take a taxi home from the city ($50).
Last week we did lawn bowling. This is a boule-like sport which is played with large, unbalanced balls. Around 70 had accepted, but only around 10 showed up at the start. Personally I blamed the secretary who sent out the agenda after people responded. Before the fun - we had to endure an hour's lecture on Operational Health and Safety. The presenter must be credited for at least trying to make it a bit fun and interesting. Another 15 dropped in over the next hour.
Afterwards we got a crash-course in how to play the game, free bar & nice finger food. I would have posted a picture of Sissi-in-action, but sadly I can't find the camera cable.

was this the one in Balmain?! Should I have known a pub crawl was included! I confirmed (but I wasn't a PM), unless this is a different thing.
