First New Year Meeting

According to the Club's diary we have our usual tee reserved for Thursday 2nd January so hopefully the weather will pick up by then.
Harry Wright is recovering well and sends his best wishes to everyone. He will be coming out for a stroll with us although it will be some time before he can swing a club.

Seasonal Greetings

Unfortunately I couldn't post this message in time for Christmas due to a power cut, but best wishes to fellow Sandpipers for the New Year, particularly those who for various reasons aren't able to join us for our bi-weekly competitions.

Tuesday 17th December

Nineteen took part in today's calm and mild conditions. John Gibson took first place with 33 points and myself second on best countback of the three 32s.
Thursday's forecast looks grim so today could be our last official meeting until the new year according to the club diary. Anyone wanting to play on Tuesdays or Thursdays will have to book via the web site or the professional.

Trolley Driving Test

FAILED

Tuesday 10th November

Nineteen turned out at the crack of dawn for our Christmas Bottle Trot and a further three joined us for the excellent meal provided by Octavia and David. Secretary Geoff Waite provided a full prize table, Joe Holmes' 36 points taking the whisky, Robin Binny's 33 the gin and Edward Harle's 16 the booby prize.

Christmas Luncheon

Just to remind everyone that if inclement weather forces the Bottle Trot to be abandoned then we have the meal at around 12.30pm. Dress is 'smart casual' and to assist with the prize presentation our golf scores will be entered in the computer.
Harry Wright has had a successful operation on his shoulder and we wish him a speedy recovery.

Tuesday 3rd December

Twenty took advantage of today's cool and calm conditions, Mike Mapleton blowing the rest of the field away with 40 points. My 33 was enough for second place.
Sandpipers were well represented at the Club's prize giving last Saturday night with Grant Anderson, Geoff Scott, Joe Penrice and myself collecting trophies. Joe Campbell assisted in his official capacity as Assistant Handicap Secretary.
