Tuesday 31st December

Seventeen played on the full course in spite of the heavy overnight frost. Clive Milburn finished the year on a high with a winning 36 and John Parker second with the best back nine of several 33s.
All the best to everyone for 2020.

Seasonal Greetings

Wishing all our members the very best for the forthcoming season and may all your handicaps be little ones.
Just a reminder that Boxing Day is reserved for a Club medal competition but both New Years Eve and 2nd January have our usual tee times booked for us.

Texas Scramble Report

Just the right number turned up so twenty seven made nine three balls with the last coming in as dusk fell. I've forgotten who came first but everyone got a prize ranging from whiskey to wine. I lost interest when I found what I thought was a good score (nett 66) came next to last. I'm informed that ex member Ivor Nelson wishes to pass on best wishes to everyone.
I am now pleased to announce that the worthy winners were Peter Taylor, David Frith and John Parker.

Xmas Social

Thirty one battled their way through rain and wind to enjoy an excellent meal together and a quiz compiled by Bob Finlinson. The Bottle Texas Scramble has been pencilled in for Tuesday 17th at our normal start time with prizes distributed in the lounge afterwards.

The use of emails to update members about today's arrangements proved successful but there was still a good number of phone calls to make sure everyone was informed. Please hand me your contact details on a piece of paper if you wish to be included as no email addresses are published on this blog or visible to anyone except the recipient.

Xmas Social Update

In view of the extremely poor weather forecast for Tuesday it has been thought prudent to postpone the scramble and bring forward the time of the meal to 12.30pm.
The scramble for bottle prizes will be held at our normal tee time on some more agreeable future occasion.
Should you now not wish to attend the social meal, please advise by Sunday afternoon so as not to inconvenience the caterer.
Regards

Tuesday 3rd December

Blinded by the winter sun on the way out and the last four ball of the twenty seven players struggling to get in before dark made for an interesting day. Tony Davis won with 38 points, one ahead of second placed John Wraight.
Thirty two have booked a meal for next Tuesday although not all will play golf. Those intending to go out should have their ball in by 8.45am at the latest, ready for the 9.00am Texas Scramble tee off.
