Seascale Result

The Sandpipers extended the winning streak with a 5.5 - 2.5 win at home in blustery conditions under the captaincy of Roy Williams.
Once again we enjoyed a super meal afterwards.

Hole in One

Malcolm Donald knocked one in on the 6th and went on to secure a place in our championship final.
True to form, by the time he had picked the ball out of the hole he had worked out that most of the Sandpipers were at Appleby and of the six following us only three were likely to come into the bar for a free drink at his expense.
He was very generous however, and the seven people in the bar were able to toast his good fortune.

Appleby Result

Our intrepid on the spot reporter informs me that "och aye - they looked to be in shock".
This is because the home defeat by 5.5 to 2.5 was only the second Appleby had suffered this year.
As usual the hospitality and meal were of a high standard.

Brampton Result

The best thing about the day was that the predicted rain didn't arrive until we were on our way home.
The bad news was the 3 - 5 score.
As usual the course was in excellent condition with a good meal afterwards.

Tuesday 14th July

Good to see Joe Penrice at the top of the leader board again with 37 points, beating runner up Trevor Wilson on count back with conditions classed as good but breezy.

T.Anderson Trophy

Ian Porter took the trophy with 40 points closely followed by Mike Mapleton with 39.

Thursday 08/07/2010

An approximate guess at the number of Sandpipers who took part was recorded at 22, but as an extra pound was in the kitty and none of us likely to pay twice, next Tuesday's prize money will be enhanced.

Tom Neilly came first with 39 points and after much head scratching, handicap shuffling and general hilarity, Robin Binny was awarded 2nd place with 36.

Be aware that the Jocks are now scratching around for players for the Celt's match and questioning (fixing) ancestry to enhance their team. Birth certificates and DNA testing may be required to qualify.
