KOTA SERIEMAS SCRIBE REPORT

18^TH June 2025

We all got up bright and early so we could tee off first and therefore avoid the possibility of Jumbo flights impeding our progress – this was the advice given by the club management.  All went well for the first 8 holes and we sped around the course. It was then that the best laid plans of mice and men started to fall apart. The complete numpty of a starter decided to populate the course with the jumbo flights, what we were trying to avoid. The consequences were that the second nine holes for all flights took nearly 3 hours. The management when confronted about this couldn’t give a toss. Needless to say, Kota Seriemas is now on the black list and won’t be revisited until things have improved. This is a shame as the course is good and also reasonably priced.

Lunch was taken at the ever-reliable Restoran East of Highway. Most players were there quite quickly apart from our intrepid travellers Joe and Lee who managed to arrive nearly half an hour after everyone else and thus missed the excellent serving of pork two ways. The food was excellent and accompanied by ample quantities of beer and wine

EL Pres got the prize giving underway by welcoming our guests Steve Hopgrove and Garry Noble on his second game. Klogs were also pleased to make Alastair Sims a member.

On to the NTP’s.

Moneybags for trying to screw up the payment of the deposit to the club and for confusing the NTP holes.

Joe for being late for the golf course having set his alarm to 5.30pm instead of 5.30am. Joe for being the last one to arrive at the restaurant.

Joe made it a Hatrick of consecutive COTD’s and was back on familiar territory

Joe Heggie – COTD

Following on from Joe’s antics on the recent May Away his friends have been concerned for his safety. Joe was therefore presented with some flotation aids and a one-hour swimming lesson courtesy of Klog’s own water polo Olympian.

The November Away will be to Vung Tau between the 17^th and 22^nd November 2025 details are presently being finalised and will be issued shortly.

Next month’s game will be on Wednesday 16^th July 2025 venue to be advised.

Thanks to Ricardo for helping with the photos and sponsoring the wine.

Thanks to Sigi for maintaining our balls.
