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 Priestly'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.</p><p><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhc_9h62J0jP24hqjlPLi34-RUzZD3OXOpHFZMaY1yHwRv-AR8SkkhoouJGJw99FQcKvHr_CiEOJf84lpQGod2dTeZWqeaOmaOA7TumVEP5IiggFFJHq5ris_8At0L8fahM-TkJLicW6W06Yjw3lXqKgwSP86srTowIerPx6JBu3gLe3NUpk7BGzQOBPH0/s640/Lymphoy%20Cup%20Round%207%20League%20table.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="281" data-original-width="640" height="282" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhc_9h62J0jP24hqjlPLi34-RUzZD3OXOpHFZMaY1yHwRv-AR8SkkhoouJGJw99FQcKvHr_CiEOJf84lpQGod2dTeZWqeaOmaOA7TumVEP5IiggFFJHq5ris_8At0L8fahM-TkJLicW6W06Yjw3lXqKgwSP86srTowIerPx6JBu3gLe3NUpk7BGzQOBPH0/w640-h282/Lymphoy%20Cup%20Round%207%20League%20table.jpg" width="640" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">The final league table of the Lymphoy Cup 24</td></tr></tbody></table><br /></p><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgCKmZj4V4GXhLe0Gt1ToiFp9A59EO2wEBYcwFjx5rTzLsUDuzPAyqjhEeW1x1PN6DEsLi6HiGFE_NiPDkx9Oo0k0qcX8HgqJV7tB3iJb1BN-0SRD2jMwYQGSctQ9xMzrcAKtgeeqwvIxuyLQqO73cr8N-U6Ivh4IU8jzycLIxX6NxzYVevPgSjGaxa8n0/s901/Lymphoy%20Cup%20Round%207%20Score%20sheet.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="262" data-original-width="901" height="186" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgCKmZj4V4GXhLe0Gt1ToiFp9A59EO2wEBYcwFjx5rTzLsUDuzPAyqjhEeW1x1PN6DEsLi6HiGFE_NiPDkx9Oo0k0qcX8HgqJV7tB3iJb1BN-0SRD2jMwYQGSctQ9xMzrcAKtgeeqwvIxuyLQqO73cr8N-U6Ivh4IU8jzycLIxX6NxzYVevPgSjGaxa8n0/w640-h186/Lymphoy%20Cup%20Round%207%20Score%20sheet.jpg" width="640" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">The final score sheet of the Lymphoy Cup 24</td></tr></tbody></table><br />Karen Munrohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15591928699850290179noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-820278175206512820.post-88468097494958311912024-03-16T12:54:00.006+00:002024-03-16T12:54:59.629+00:00Lymphoy Cup '24 Round 6.1 Results<p>Four teams were out yesterday, although not much of a contest for top spots, exciting games nonetheless!

Some of them quite convincingly too! With wins by Kerry and Jenny's teams, it now means no teams are sitting on 0 points, with all teams securing at least one win! Dave's team were in a great spot at the top, having played and beaten all teams at the top of the table and had 2 games in hand, but having been beaten by Jenny, his chances of a trophy are slipping slightly. It'll be interesting to see what happens next...As for the top of the table, Megan Priestly's team are sitting nicely at the top, although with the same ends as Niall Gunn's team, it'll come down to the last game of the season. </p><p><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj1TEiFaFg-hUpECnu0zBaUS8NpItd6E1OWa0WCXkm0fMIRSxBZPIBqt2xRGhHyEni3Q8OW68W7LVkSgjx9UMgdci0HmxKELJNOimVCbVVvP9YIz3iMZN1d9lte0vxVP1EjTEUaOaa7gP0qbvfNkR8BGd3CE9Wu-NR-rTYeYrHEwV9HpjjaOSd2ZgOAsyY/s738/Lymphoy%20Cup%20Round%205.2%20League%20table.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="323" data-original-width="738" height="280" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj1TEiFaFg-hUpECnu0zBaUS8NpItd6E1OWa0WCXkm0fMIRSxBZPIBqt2xRGhHyEni3Q8OW68W7LVkSgjx9UMgdci0HmxKELJNOimVCbVVvP9YIz3iMZN1d9lte0vxVP1EjTEUaOaa7gP0qbvfNkR8BGd3CE9Wu-NR-rTYeYrHEwV9HpjjaOSd2ZgOAsyY/w640-h280/Lymphoy%20Cup%20Round%205.2%20League%20table.jpg" width="640" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">League table after Round 5.2</td></tr></tbody></table><br /></p><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEglI9HbTeDTYwFyjfrWJ6EFWB2GKOG_-swplyw15NF1kZet_bUa028GFBM_68HmMjHPT1wllD6DMqcVcFs8PtOH9IO68Nb-PwiTYdnjXD3caXO7MKU2Y_aTeayAfq1CHehPFfi-_TaljdxWPluv6CqiJTDPAAIENRjnRrvISiA2r155Ie8Kp3waA5hmqo4/s1041/Lymphoy%20Cup%20Round%205.2%20Score%20Sheet.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="302" data-original-width="1041" height="186" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEglI9HbTeDTYwFyjfrWJ6EFWB2GKOG_-swplyw15NF1kZet_bUa028GFBM_68HmMjHPT1wllD6DMqcVcFs8PtOH9IO68Nb-PwiTYdnjXD3caXO7MKU2Y_aTeayAfq1CHehPFfi-_TaljdxWPluv6CqiJTDPAAIENRjnRrvISiA2r155Ie8Kp3waA5hmqo4/w640-h186/Lymphoy%20Cup%20Round%205.2%20Score%20Sheet.jpg" width="640" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Score card after Round 5.2</td></tr></tbody></table><br />Karen Munrohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15591928699850290179noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-820278175206512820.post-63201363823657724302024-03-02T17:54:00.003+00:002024-03-02T17:54:39.143+00:00Lymphoy Cup '24 Round 5.1 Results<p>Two interesting games happened last night! Megan Priestly's team took on Brian Fleming's team, and with Megan holding top spot and Brian being much further down, Megan needed the win to continue her run and stay put at the top but the game ended in a draw. Dave Munro on the other hand, still with a game in hand, managed a good win against Niall Gunn which puts him in second spot on the table. With 3 more games for him to play, while the other top teams only have 2, it's going to be an interesting finish to the season!</p><p>League table as it stands after the game on 1st March:</p><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh7fPVgqzBJBNABMn6vzGdIGO9R6Ti6_hpDydsjCzU17cs0PeMqxcA21QC0i1RUMJ7ZtjEBu8P_FxMkXiycPs0-2aXok7GS-1v28Npr8VABzRkt0OhP9xKkSyKAd3WhEM1tcek4j2SE9-S51LDHZEgWbz-Ub36q2tiCDncyiRF6LcBDhh6N2kvk_xqODto/s638/Lymphoy%20Cup%20Round%205.1%20League%20Table.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="280" data-original-width="638" height="280" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh7fPVgqzBJBNABMn6vzGdIGO9R6Ti6_hpDydsjCzU17cs0PeMqxcA21QC0i1RUMJ7ZtjEBu8P_FxMkXiycPs0-2aXok7GS-1v28Npr8VABzRkt0OhP9xKkSyKAd3WhEM1tcek4j2SE9-S51LDHZEgWbz-Ub36q2tiCDncyiRF6LcBDhh6N2kvk_xqODto/w640-h280/Lymphoy%20Cup%20Round%205.1%20League%20Table.jpg" width="640" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">League table after Round 5.1</td></tr></tbody></table><br /><p><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh5KPSeWokeN9aIq6kcFViK4jSKcuXl18lr-rnpDWeqZzWXA4a8QnKxscIETOfhCjN0bHy0_ureQESKS3tumO2IggJ3NPcviISSN_OimzEnO9UBNYGFSPUt3mrAMHM-Owklbh8Mzg5Zr8fC5qTKoiUXSH_U_2Bj6p3r6n9TfOoj85fV7-NstdDUtfgZMSk/s900/Lymphoy%20Cup%20Round%205.1%20Score%20Sheet.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="262" data-original-width="900" height="186" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh5KPSeWokeN9aIq6kcFViK4jSKcuXl18lr-rnpDWeqZzWXA4a8QnKxscIETOfhCjN0bHy0_ureQESKS3tumO2IggJ3NPcviISSN_OimzEnO9UBNYGFSPUt3mrAMHM-Owklbh8Mzg5Zr8fC5qTKoiUXSH_U_2Bj6p3r6n9TfOoj85fV7-NstdDUtfgZMSk/w640-h186/Lymphoy%20Cup%20Round%205.1%20Score%20Sheet.jpg" width="640" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Score Sheet after Round 5.1</td></tr></tbody></table><br /></p><br />Karen Munrohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15591928699850290179noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-820278175206512820.post-80805379871362570292024-03-02T17:16:00.002+00:002024-03-02T17:16:18.617+00:00C&B Points 2024<p>C&B had their annual points competition on the 19th of Jan, with a decent turnout of 12 players, with a real mix of usual players and newer members of the club.</p><p>They managed to work their way through 7 disciplines. It was very close at the top with 4 players scoring in the 30s! But taking the top spot was Jen Marshall with a score of 35, narrowly beating Dave Munro who finished with 34 points (and wouldn't stop going on about a missed stone on the last discipline...It's alright, he never reads this blog anyway). So Jen wins not just the Points trophy, but also the ladies' prize too!</p><p>Coming in 3rd with a respectable score of 33 was Eilidh Troup, a new member to the club and to the points game too! I think Jen should be worried about that trophy next year!</p><p>Well done everyone!

What a final few games that was to finish the first half of the season, bringing the Kettle competition 23/24 to a close.</p><p>Played in January rather than the Kettle finishing before Christmas due to the late start to the season, I think the wait just added to the tension!</p><p>It was a close run competition towards the end, with 3 out of the 4 games mattering. 2 of the leaders, John Steven and Katie Wood were up against each other. Unfortunately, Katie wasn't able to play, and although her rink fought valiantly, John Steven came out on top. On other rinks, Karen Munro needed a win against Shona Watt to remain in contention for a trophy, but unfortunately, a peel was all she could manage. Brian Fleming was up against Dave Munro, who wasn't in with a chance of the win (sorry Dad!). Brian narrowly won, probably due to Dave focussing more on socialising with the Strathcona lot. So with 2 teams on 10 points, it came down to ends, and with a peel in ends, it was John's 20 shots up against Brian's 7 that clinched the victory. </p><p><u>So the winning team of the Kettle Trophy 23/24 was:</u></p><p><b>John Steven</b></p><p><b>Jenny Barr</b></p><p><b>Sarah Ford</b></p><p><b>Sheena Munro</b> (Mum/see Dad, its important to have a focussed skip!)</p><p><u>Winners of the Harlaw Cup (Runners up)</u></p><p><b>Brian Fleming</b></p><p><b>Andrew Galloway</b></p><p><b>Lois Copland</b></p><p><b>Donald Kennedy</b></p><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjY3lYfrV34OhGOPWMqbkkeu5kNnDGnOY6yxtVtL4VVjulQKkoL_FkI9rsNpDyIHs42hGgZ9BmFyP3GUQJ1b8exa6tGgoRFYcv_Sjt1agTFMZnWGnm2BMiiqMV5-cRyZ7mMAUytzGxmDU4VuJzTvlaYXNj1yU7_Z9hdowbuBQHk9fFwNsE769odELU9F04/s767/Kettle%20Round%207%20League%20table.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="333" data-original-width="767" height="278" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjY3lYfrV34OhGOPWMqbkkeu5kNnDGnOY6yxtVtL4VVjulQKkoL_FkI9rsNpDyIHs42hGgZ9BmFyP3GUQJ1b8exa6tGgoRFYcv_Sjt1agTFMZnWGnm2BMiiqMV5-cRyZ7mMAUytzGxmDU4VuJzTvlaYXNj1yU7_Z9hdowbuBQHk9fFwNsE769odELU9F04/w640-h278/Kettle%20Round%207%20League%20table.jpg" width="640" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">The final league standings after round 7.</td></tr></tbody></table><br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj1KCYYzfHeWLSoYPuTrSbOhQe63zxAOod6sXrHIQKRnv0Ut5Sczrob71eX2VNiCb1Gr07kWRkt9JufiFYW_dur0mMVClPsh7A10QOVI9-H5yAs56STJKS_iESHgg1xiyKEkk6A3IofSblGPa5Vr0jEsmsEcPvW5rTBBI9urpUXlQu6iKqDUY5M-MYSeoc/s1057/Kettle%20Round%207%20Score%20sheet.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="312" data-original-width="1057" height="189" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj1KCYYzfHeWLSoYPuTrSbOhQe63zxAOod6sXrHIQKRnv0Ut5Sczrob71eX2VNiCb1Gr07kWRkt9JufiFYW_dur0mMVClPsh7A10QOVI9-H5yAs56STJKS_iESHgg1xiyKEkk6A3IofSblGPa5Vr0jEsmsEcPvW5rTBBI9urpUXlQu6iKqDUY5M-MYSeoc/w640-h189/Kettle%20Round%207%20Score%20sheet.jpg" width="640" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Final Score sheet</td></tr></tbody></table><br /><p><br /></p>Karen Munrohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15591928699850290179noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-820278175206512820.post-4027767573319242892023-12-23T20:17:00.000+00:002023-12-23T20:17:06.029+00:00Kettle Round 6.2<p>The second of the second group of split games took place on the 22nd of December, with a few interesting 'Christmassy' themed hats and jumpers gracing the ice.

It was very close in the end, with the winners being just one point ahead of second place. Unusually for <b>doubles</b>, the competition was won by 3 players! Not realising there would be more than one game, sub Holly Davies had to leave after the first game. Enter into the fold David Aitken, who had not thrown a stone in A YEAR! But much to Jenny's annoyance proceeded to draw to the 4 foot with his first stone...maybe curling is like riding a bike?</p><p>Talking subs though, Currie and Balerno are blessed with some of the finest subs around and I feel like they don't get as much credit as they are due. In fact, looking at the original draw for the doubles, out of the top 3 teams (of 7 players) only 2 were original players, the rest were super subs! </p><p>Due to the mismatch of different players, I was unfortunately not able to get a picture of the winning team but the standing were as follows:</p><p><b>1st: Andrew Galloway and Holly Davies/David Aitken with +8 shots</b></p><p><b>2nd: Katie Wood and Josh Kellock with +7 shots</b></p><p><b>3rd: Eilidh Yeats and Colin Barr with +5 shots.</b></p><p>A massive thank you must also go to Dave Munro and Megan Priestly for doing the scoring for the competition. It can be tricky to wrangle up all the score cards especially with 2 different sessions happening and the 2 of them playing as well.</p><p>It was as always a fantastic afternoon of curling...just need to read up on how to successfully pull of a power play ahead of next years competition!</p><p><br /></p>Karen Munrohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15591928699850290179noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-820278175206512820.post-14174720723567212212023-12-01T21:24:00.001+00:002023-12-01T21:24:46.126+00:00Kettle Round 5.1<p> Hello All,</p><p>The first of the split weeks took place on the 1st of Dec, with what so happened to be the 4 teams at the top of the league table playing each other!

<p class="Body"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="Body"><span lang="EN-US" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Thomas was a
Blacksmith based in Balerno and as you would expect </span><span lang="EN-US">had many irons
in his fire. His many interests included Curling, Golf, Local Culture </span>and Politics.</p><p class="Body"><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="Body"><span lang="EN-US" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Here is a
photograph of the man himself:</span></p>

founder member of the Balerno Curling Club, established 1895. </span>During his time
at the Club he was Assistant Secretary and Club Secretary but undertook a
number of activities within the Club. He was the Ice Master which included tasks
such as preparing and upkeep of the rink, the stones, <span lang="EN-US">procuring and
making snow clearers, tee ringer, score cutter, ringer hook, draw pins</span><span lang="EN-US"> </span><span lang="EN-US">and brooms,
open the Clubhouse for the members. In the summer months he turned</span><span lang="EN-US"> </span><span lang="EN-US">his hand to
mole catcher.</span></p>
<p class="Body"><o:p> </o:p>Thomas was
always at the forefront for Balerno’s fixtures with local Clubs and from all
accounts was an excellent curler. He was also a member of the Scottish team which
welcomed incoming tours from Canada and played in the Strathcona Cup. <span lang="EN-US">He won the Linlithgow Trophy
dubbed the World Championship not just once but</span><span lang="EN-US"> </span><span lang="EN-US">twice!</span></p><p class="Body"><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="Body"><span lang="EN-US" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Thomas resigned
as Secretary in November 1920 but continued his duties as Ice </span>Manager. His
disposition was described “as having unfailing kindness and unruffled temper
attended to the wants of unfortunate members requiring his immediate attention
to provide them stones, brooms and locks for lockers when the keys were
allegedly loss even if he was in mid game.” <span lang="EN-US"> </span><span lang="EN-US">Thomas only missed one Committee meeting during his time with the Club between</span><span lang="EN-US"> </span><span lang="EN-US">1895 - 1927.</span></p><p class="Body"><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="Body"><span lang="EN-US" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">He also gifted
the Club a pair of silver handles as the prize for a Points Competition.</span></p>
<p class="Body"><o:p> </o:p>His second passion was Golf
and was a Member of Baberton Golf Club. Here is an
extract from the records of Baberton Golf Club.</p><p class="Body"><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="Body"><span lang="EN-US" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span>“Pre-eminent
among our Founder Members was Thomas Horsburgh, a master-blacksmith with an
inventive turn of mind.”</p>
<p class="Body"><span lang="EN-US" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;"><o:p> </o:p></span><span lang="EN-US">In the
Club's founding year, he forged a set of steel-shafted clubs, both woods and
irons, at his Cockburn Smiddy. The original building still stands at Glenbrook
Road.</span><span lang="EN-US"> </span><span lang="EN-US">He found them such an improvement that he took out a UK Patent No 8603,
dated 1st May 1894. The patent "relates to the use of steel shafts for
golf clubs for the purpose of giving strength and elasticity." Included in
his patent was a specified</span><span lang="EN-US"> </span><span lang="EN-US">club which obviated the need to carry a set. It
consisted of a single shaft and a</span><span lang="EN-US"> </span><span lang="EN-US">number of club-heads each of which
could be affixed by simply turning a screw. </span>Unfortunately
the parent expired and another golf club maker followed up Thomas’s idea
and accrued a fortune.</p><p class="Body"><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="Body"><span lang="EN-US" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Thomas at the
age of 78 was still carding that number on a regular basis.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="Body"><span lang="EN-US" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Thomas and few
others were interested in Burns the poet and established the Club</span><span lang="EN-US"> </span><span lang="EN-US" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">still known
an meeting to this day as ‘Let it Blaw.’ Although Thomas was not</span><span lang="EN-US"> </span><span lang="EN-US" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">identified
as being one of the twelve founders he is listed as having attended and</span><span lang="EN-US"> </span><span lang="EN-US" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">noted in
their minutes to have regularly contributed to the Club. </span><span lang="EN-US">In 1896 Tom was appointed
Croupier and, in 1898, was elected as Club President & Supper Chairman for
the first time. It wasn</span><span dir="RTL"></span><span dir="RTL"></span><span dir="RTL" lang="AR-SA" style="font-family: "Arial Unicode MS", serif;"><span dir="RTL"></span><span dir="RTL"></span>’</span><span lang="EN-US">t until
1910 that he took the Chair for</span><span lang="EN-US"> </span><span lang="EN-US">the second time but, on this
occasion, it was the start of an era in which he was to</span><span lang="EN-US">
</span><span lang="EN-US">become one of the Club</span><span dir="RTL"></span><span dir="RTL"></span><span dir="RTL" lang="AR-SA" style="font-family: "Arial Unicode MS", serif;"><span dir="RTL"></span><span dir="RTL"></span>’</span><span lang="EN-US">s stalwarts; one of the big names in
the history of the</span><span lang="EN-US"> </span><span lang="EN-US">Balerno Burns Club being re-elected as Chairman
for 29 consecutive years until his</span><span lang="EN-US"> </span><span lang="EN-US">death.</span></p><p class="Body"><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="Body"><span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><span lang="EN-US">In </span></span><span lang="RU" style="mso-ansi-language: RU;">1917 </span><span lang="EN-US" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Thomas turned his hand to politics and he was
elected as Councillor for </span>the Currie South
ward of the Midlothian County Council and appointed Justice of the Peace. This
ward included the village of Balerno in addition to part of Currie, and he
represented the people there continuously until his death.</p><p class="Body"><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="Body"><span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span>Lastly there is
a note of service of a dinner hosted by the RCCC. Thomas offers a toast and said he was proud
to be involved with greatest club in the world. <span lang="EN-US">Although not
stated which Club Thomas is eluding to, probably the RCCC, I would like</span><span lang="EN-US"> </span><span lang="EN-US">to think he
was silently referring to Balerno Curling Club.</span></p><p class="Body"><o:p></o:p></p>
