This years Lymphoy, like many Currie and Balerno competitions, was a very close-fought one, with the whole competition coming down to the last game. Subbing for Michael Wood in Kerry Clark's team, I thoroughly enjoyed my game, although as I usually play skip, the amount of sweeping was almost deadly! From my vantage point on sheet 7, I was able to have a look over all the games being played. Some big ends were exchanged, 4s, a 5 and even a 6 (which surprisingly John was happy with as Andrew G was playing his last shot for an 8 but wrecked on a guard!). The main game of the night was Megan Priestley's team vs Niall Gunn's team. It was all square till the 3rd end then a series of 1s followed by a 3 allowed Niall's team to jump to the top spot and take the Lymphoy Cup. Megan's team, skipped amazingly by Jen Marshall take the Glenbrook Quaich.
