On Saturday 14th January a team from Aberdeen Petroleum played against the touring US men’s team. Petroleum were represented by Roy (skip), Bill, Rod, and Giles in an afternoon fixture. Petroleum won 6-3 after 8 ends. The usual pleasantries and gifts were exchanged and we all attended the evening dinner at Curl Aberdeen, joined by Rosemary Morrison and Joanna Mackey. A very enjoyable occasion for the four of us. We were one of the few success stories of the day, as overall there was a deficit of 21 shots to the USA after the 8 games were completed.
