All too soon the weekend was at an end. But
there was one more task for Reform. The closing
dinner was the test event for the closing banquet
for the European Mixed, and Reform members
were up to the task!
After game one, organiser Jim Jamieson came
up with a fiendish plan. He would institute a system of fines, and there was no escape.
One player was fined for his braces, and others were fined for having Crossmyloof experience. Those who never threw a stone there were
fined just to balance it up. One skip was fined for
scoring three shots against Derek Brown, our
European Mixed hopeful.
Between games Reformers took very
opportu- nity to enjoy the sights and make the
most of the local restaurants.
