In the game against tourists from Pershore, Honiton claimed a resounding 104 to 52 win, but only because, as the green was flooded, the match was played indoors and much fun was had!

Last, but not least, the ladies won their friendly at Sidmouth by 63 shots to 42, best triple were Di Hawkins, Laraine Carless and Dulcie Broughton (27 -9).
