team off to a good start beating Ron Langston in
the two wood singles 17-4.
Putnam led 3-2 then
scored 8 shots in four ends to open a 9-3 lead.
Langston replied with two singles but Putnam
strung together six winning ends scoring 8 shots
to close out the match with five ends remaining.
Steve Marrett followed with a similarly quick
victory over Reg Abbs.
Abbs led 5-4 before losing
the next six ends dropping 14 shots to Marrett to
trail 18-5.
There were four more shots to Abbs before Marrett clinched the match with a three on
the 13th

Eighty year old
wins jackpot!
It was a special night at a local bingo club in
Bexleyheath when a lucky local player scooped
over £30,000 on the High 5 jackpot.
The winner, an unnamed 80 year old woman
from Woolwich was playing bingo with her
friend when she won the full house prize of
£6,500 - and was shocked to find she’d also hit
the High 5 jackpot, taking her winnings up to
over £33,000.
Duane Curtis, a spokesman for the club commented on the win: “The lady who won is a regular at a Woolwich club and decided to come to
Bexleyheath with her friend to play bingo in different
surroundings.
This enormous win follows the introduction
to the Bexleyheath club of the cutting edge
new High 5 game which offers a unique
chance for customers to play for a rollover
jackpot.
With better prize money and even
more chances to win, the linked High 5 game
heralds the future of UK bingo.
“We’ve never been against incineration
of waste” said Cllr.
Gareth Bacon “we
simply didn’t want an incinerator in
our back yard and fought hard against
having one for sixteen years”!
Well now everything has come full circle and
Bexley Council having spent over £1m fighting
the incinerator project have signed a twenty five
year long contract with the owners Cory Environmental Ltd to burn up to 70,000 tonnes of
our waste which starts on the lst January 2011.
Thanks to a massive effort from residents our
rubbish is sorted and paper for example earns
the council up to £50 a ton.
Plastic bottles are
recycled now and glass is as well.
Council officer Mike Frizoni told the Chronicle
Bexley residents had achieved a remarkable
record recycling 50% of their waste well ahead
of the planned targets.
Despite the heavy local opposition from both
residents and politicians from both the Labour
and Conservative parties everyone now seems
to accept with good grace that it is the place for
Bexley to take their waste rather than the landfill site at Rainham.
Transporting up to 70,000
tonnes of waste will mean at least 14,000 extra
vehicle movements a year.
Access by road will
mainly be via the Bronze Age Way to Picardy
Manor Way then to Norman Road and the
marsh site of the incinerator.
