After the first game of the season had to be postponed two weeks ago because of torrential rain, the team started the 2019 campaign on Thursday night at Ralston, on a dull evening that was mercifully dry despite the forecasts.
It is always tough to play away from home and last year's Division 1 winners, Ralston, once again proved formidable opponents, beating Ranfurly Castle 3.5 games to 2.5. Well done to Vivien, Helen A and Gillian who managed to get points away from home. Despite the loss, we enjoyed the evening as the course, the meal afterwards and the company of the Ralston ladies were all great. We will hope to be back there next year, trying again for that elusive extra point!
