On Sunday we welcomed Hertfordshire City Ladies Tour. Together with a little help from ladies from other local clubs we were able to have all seven rinks open Thanks to a lot of hard work by our members in the kitchen we were also able to offer the ladies a lunch before the match as they had just arrived in Babbacombe direct from Hertfordshire Despite a very early start in the day for all their members, they played exceptionally well The weather was kind to us and we all thoroughly enjoyed the afternoon
