Glenmarie Valley  

17th October 2024

The October game was switched to a Thursday so that we could play the excellent Glenmarie Valley course, the course being closed on Wednesdays for weekly maintenance or was it really to give EL PRES and extra day to recover from his dodgy British Airways experience. Whichever the reason the valley as usual played really well in spite of the recent monsoon rains, we have been experiencing. It was for this reason we had to put up with buggy on track. Play got off on time and with only minimal delays we were all finished by 12:45pm.

As has been the norm when playing Glenmarie we adjourn to Restoran Twelve Roads for lunch and prize giving. Once again, the restaurant excelled and we dined in style with a good range of dishes selected by EL PRES. It was good to see Clive join us for lunch. Vice Pres as usual made a pratt of himself by asking the restaurant staff to go and buy peanuts, translation issue resulted in 10 packets of monkey nuts being delivered, to the amusement of the crowd.
