THE Bridlington/Millau Petanque Club played host to visitors from Millau on Friday with some excellent boule played by everyone, this was not a competition but a day of fun for all who attended.
Although the game of boule is a French sport the visitors were impressed by the standard of play at Bridlington.
Millau is the French town twinned with Bridlington.
The club would like to thank members for the buffet which was laid on for the visitors and thanks go to the French for making it an enjoyable day.
