victory against
Thame B from Division Two.
Peter Astall Cherwell off to a flying start with a 75-49, 66-36 win against

Dave White had no answer to
Mark Clifford, the
Cherwell player taking the 3rd and 4th frames 66-51, 74-31 to make in 2-0 on points and an astonishing 114 ahead on aggregate.
Nigel Bossom faired no better in the 5th frame, losing 58-45 to
Mick Lomas. At 127 behind on aggregate going into the final frame Bossom had no realistic chance of overturning the deficit. With the pressure now well and truly off, Bossom managed a break of 34 and secured the frame 69-19 to salvage a consolation point for
