Only ten of us turned out to contribute to the Roger Cutts Benevolent fund.
Better remembered was the wine supplied by John Gibson to celebrate his 66th birthday.
Congratulations John.

Tuesday 28th January
A couple of showers spoiled an otherwise reasonable day for the time of year for the seventeen players.
No bother to Tom Neilly though with 39 points, the next nearest being Mike Mapleton with 34.
There's now enough water lying on the course to make a ball retriever an essential piece of kit.

Hi from Sunny Dubai
Hi David,
I apologise for the late information regarding me leaving Silloth golf club. As you will have noticed I did not play September onward not just at Silloth but also at Carlisle. It was because of long term shoulder problem. I have therefore decided just to keep only Carlisle as my club.
It had been a pleasure to have been a member at such top notch club. I will miss all the Sandpipers on Tuesdays and Thursdays get together. Please give my best regards to all of them and wish them all the best for 2014 season.
Regards
Ejaz Malik

Fifteen played today with only a few drops of rain on the last couple of holes. Roger Cutts managed a winning score of 36 followed by Geoff Scott with 35.
Rules Question:
With so much of the course marked 'GUR Compulsory Free Drop' what is the rule if your stance is within the GUR but the ball is outside it. Can you play it as it lies or do you have to drop the ball so that your feet are outside the GUR as well. Please cite any ruling as I can't find a definitive answer.

Today's benign conditions attracted a field of nineteen to make Willie Smith the first winner of 2014 with 36 points and Tommy Neilly second with 32.
Joe Campbell is recovering well from his knee surgery, but John Tudor not quite back yet with his damaged knuckles. Hopefully my hearing will soon return to normal, recovering from today's round!

Only seven braved today's squalls.
Owing to his domestic circumstances, long standing member Bernard Keighley has decided not to renew his membership. I'm sure we all wish Bernard the best for the future.
