Tuesday 9th February

Not the kind of day for standing about in the freezing wind, but 29 members turned out with Dave Wood's 38 points taking first prize and Robin Binney second with 37.
Best wishes to Joe Penrice who I am told has had reassuring news from his doctor after a couple of 'bad turns' but will  resist the urge to play for a little while.

Thursday 4th February

Unfortunately, the course manager decided there was still too much frost in the ground to open the full course so 20 of us took part in a 4BBB playing off 3/4 Sandpipers handicaps on temporary greens.
No problem for Geoff Scott and John Kennedy who turned in 54 points, with the in-form Harry Wright and his partner John Eilbeck pinching second place with 51.
Terry Stubbs has put up a list for Lochmaben on the 5th May.

Tuesday 2nd February

Drizzle, rain, sleet and light snow. These were the conditions prior to 14 Sandpipers teeing off, but after a few holes the weather improved to become a balmy spring afternoon.
Tom Neilly won 1st prize with 35 points followed by Mike Mapleton with 32.

Thursday 28th January

With far better weather conditions, David Low's new putter earned him a 38 points second place which was still a street behind Harry Wright whose 44 points qualified him to have his handicap suitably castrated.

Tuesday 26th January

Terry Stubbs galloped round to a 39 points victory over the other 23 Sandpipers, with Brian Taylor recording 36 points on a chilly day with a hint of sleet in the air.
The couple of people who were concerned about Alan Proud not feeling too well on the 18th green will be pleased to hear that it seems to have been caused by a chill which a hot bath has cured as well as having another beneficial effect.
Look after yourself Alan.
