OFFICE BEARERS:

EL PRES – PAUL GEDDES

MONEYBAGS & SCRIBE – IAIN WISE

Having moved our game from the Wednesday to the Thursday so we could play the The Valley course it was disappointing to be advised by the club 5 days before our game that the Valley would be closed and that we had been transferred back to The Garden course. After further shenanigans with the booking system, we managed to get all the flights consolidated into 2 blocks off tee boxes one and ten. Twenty players therefore got off on time. The weather was good and the course also in reasonable condition.

We were round in reasonable time and adjourned to Twelve Roads Restaurant for well-deserved beer and food.
