Last Boccia in the Hall before Open Doors work starts on the room

We had our last opportunity to play Boccia in the Hall at Wesley Memorial before work starts on the room as part of the Open Doors regeneration.
Hopefully this will sort out the floor, as my ball kept drifting away from where I bowled it – though this did not seem to affect the other bowlers !

Boccia – with our new Boccia set

We played Boccia in the John Wesley Room.
DSCN1965Using our new Boccia set – we had been borrowing Boccia sets before now to play.
DSCN1967The John Wesley Room is shorter than the Hall, so we set up tables as a backstop.
DSCN1969Knocking the white target ball away from its initial position is a perfectly valid – and sometimes successful – tactic.

and here we are on video !

Beetle Drive in conjuction with the John Wesley Society

On Friday 27th April we held a Beetle Drive, in conjunction with the John Wesley society, in aid of the Wesley Memorial Open Doors project.
The evening gave Phab members and JWS and church members a chance to socialise, and get to know each other a little. As well as playing Beetle, we ate hot dogs, and Beetle Biscuits. There were prizes (of chocolate bars) for the best drawn Beetles. Unfortunately the prize for best Beetle costume went unawarded this time, so someone missed out on even more chocolate.DSCN0413
