A RECENT skittles evening raised some £500 for this year’s poppy appeal as players descended upon Kingsteignton’s Royal British Legion for an evenings skittles.

The singles knockout competition saw participants play for ‘The Presidents Poppy Appeal plate’ - there was also a raffle on the night; Kenny Le Gallais came out on top, beating the competition, including Sally-Anne Orton by just one point.

Kingsteignton Royal British Legion Club’s Julie Clegg would like to thank both the organisers and players.
