Lodgers B stretched their lead at the top of the table to 10 points after defeating stable-mates Lodgers D 2-8. The D team didn't get off to the best of starts when Tony Kime fell ill and they had to concede three points off the bat. No. 3 ranked Steve Hill did his best to limit the damage with two excellent victories over Trev Blackbourn and then No. 2 ranked Colin Bell. However, he could do nothing about the close placement tactics of David Kime, David winning in four ends. It was a tough night for Richard Scott who battled well but was well beaten by the more experienced players.
