It was a fine cloudy afternoon with a bit of wind and not too hot. Another fine turnout was led as usual by the Swifts. Coming up behind were an extremely dangerous bunch who tried to blast through the hedge at them; they were innocently teeing off at 17 and then again when they were on the green. The Swifts were too fleet foot for that! It also didn't stop our resident pro from shooting a 70, somewhat under his age. In the winners' enclosure this week were Keiren Chaffer with 42 points, Martin Short (on a roller-coaster this season), Tony Biggs (ditto), Malcolm Lawrence (ditto) and James Brice. Loads on 39 didn't make it. Sad for some, crisps were bought by the Secretary Bird, Hogie-tokie, Missed-the-hole, Oxslip, Scarlett Pimpernel, and the Button. Thanks for all the cards coming in. The bar and kitchen are now open until at least 8.30 pm so there was a good social gathering to be had. |
