18th February (Away) v Phoenix Nights Won 413-354

Amazing, astonishing, astounding, breathtaking, magnificent, spectacular, stunning, wonderful, wondrous, I'm not struggling to find words for Vorni's double flopper however, adjectives themselves are insufficient to describe the performance of Rob Weale. 

So here is the scoreboard..... would you just look at that!









Rob not only smashed the previous Tattibogoes highest individual score held for more than 18 years by Prycer, who achieved 57 at the Credenhill Social Club on 28th November 2003, but it's probably the best ever recorded in the Hereford & District Skittle League. 

Vorni's double flopper gave him the opportunity for a 27 spare but sadly nerves got the better of him and he put his third ball through. He's only the seventh Tatti to have had a chance at the maximum joining Boundy (20), Sammer (19), Prycer (26), Berti (19), Boundy (20), Westy (21) and Benny (23).

Oh, I almost forgot, the team scored over 400 for the fourth time this season to beat Phoenix Nights by 59 pins, 413-354, and are now seven points clear at the top of the table after Evans SC lost at home against Barton. 

With six matches to play they are now just three victories away from retaining their title as Division One Champions.

11th February v Woodentops (Home) Won 366-331

 A great opening leg of 106 set the Tatti's on their way to bag another two points, beating Woodentops by 35 pins at the Snooker Centre, 366-331.


Westy & Benny returned to the line-up after missing the previous league game in mysterious circumstances.Rumour has it they went hunting in the dark armed with cat balls and Benny shat himself when they witnessed an unexplained episode of paranormal cativity. The question is, did it affect Benny's performance in this game?

We may never know but, whatever they saw, it didn't phase Westy in the slightest as he started with a great 15 spare and went on to a spooktacular 40 total.


Stuee Griff stole the limelight with a superb 43 thanks to a brace of spares & Captain Ali celebrated his 800th league game.

9th February v Barton (Front Pin Q. Final) Won 292-194

The Tatti's maintained their record of winning all their 29 quarter final matches in the Front Pin. This time they beat Barton at the Snooker Centre, 292-194.


Finding themselves 15 pins behind after the first leg they turned the match on it's head with a couple of great legs and ended up winning by 98.

Holly & Cheeso shared the limelight with a pair of excellent 40's and for both it was the second time they've achieved scores in the 40's at Front Pin.

4th February v The 'C'on Men (A) Won 381-341

The Tatti's defeated bottom of the table 'C'on Men by 40 pins, 381-341, at the bouncy Golden Lion to maintain their five points lead at the top.


Berti starred with a huge 49, his fourth best score for the Bogoes however, felling just a couple of pins from his final ball he missed a great opportunity to join Prycer on four career 50's.

Booby helped himself to a wonderful late double frame clearance to finish on 40 and stay in the race for the averages.
