Nottingham beat Edgbaston 6-1 in Mary Rose

Nottingham were 2-1 up at an excellent lunch, and increased their lead with the first afternoon game to finish, but the match was a lot closer than the eventual score suggested, with the last three games all having single figure margins, two with pegged out endings.

Results (with Edgbaston names first):

Markham & Cawdell lost to Ian Vincent & Martin Beacon -26
Slater lost to Omied Hallam -16
Thompson bt Peter Death +5

Markham lost to Vincent -5
Cawdell lost to Beacon -4
Slater lost to Death -5
Thompson lost to Hallam -17

We play Pendle and Craven at home in the next round.
