The evening was rounded off raffle tickets and proper game of bowls using pound coins
<a href="http://s211.photobucket.com/albums/bb293/tractorpilot/2008%20Oonyakistan%20and%20the%20north/?action=view¤t=DSC00798.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i211.photobucket.com/albums/bb293/tractorpilot/2008%20Oonyakistan%20and%20the%20north/DSC00798.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a>

I lost three times before giving up.
