Eighteen travelled through poor road conditions to get round the course dry but windswept.
The 12th is out of commission due to the large lake in front of it and the 8th has a similar problem for those who can only make the front of the fairway.
Bob Finlinson won with 32 points and Tony Davis second, just one behind.
As there are theoretically only 34 par points available at the moment perhaps this should be the new lower limit for handicap reductions!
Happy New Year.

Greetings
Thursday's weather looks a bit grim so Seasonal Greetings to all.
Just a couple of notes - I assume that everyone whose email address is held by Silloth Golf Club will have received instructions how to log into the new web site. Howdidido is no longer used so members will have to check competition statistics through the Club's on line "member's area".
Also the ground is sodden and there are signs on down slopes that golfers have slipped.
We're all too old to be falling over so mind where you put your feet.

A surprising turnout of thirty made John Tudor's winning score of 36 very profitable. Brian Taylor came second with 35. The day was fairly calm and mild but the last fourball struggled to get in before the light failed at 4.00pm.

Rather windy today with thirteen turning out. My 31 points was enough to win, Ian Hind was second with 29.
Just a reminder to be careful about walking on the paths as wet mud can be treacherous under foot and also be aware that clubs can shoot out of your bag and give you a black eye!!!

Tuesday 8th December
Our Christmas bash proved popular again with twenty three turning up (eventually) in spite of the unsettled weather forecast. Only one brief shower added to the windy conditions.
Geoff Waite again organised a superb prize table, David Low taking the first prize bottle of whiskey with 36 points after everyone enjoyed a three course lunch and coffee whilst puzzling over quiz questions assembled by Brian Taylor.
Our best wishes go to Andy Edwards who I understand has been hospitalised recently but good to see Les Heyes and Alan Proud able to join us.
