PRESENT: M.M, J.G, P.B, B.H, P.F, D.F, B.Y, C.M.
A beautiful day at the Bridle Path, with the boys anticipating excitement and adventure.
RESULTS: It was decided by the temporary replacement Comp. Sec. that today’s game would be 4BBB. The were 2×2’s posted by team Crocs and team Gibbo who shared a pot which included the £2.60 carry over from last week. The DoD’s were Kwok and the Prof with a meagre and derisory 38 points. DDoD’s were the Laird and Crocs with 39 points. Runners up with 44 points were Brains and Jocks. The winners with a commendable score of 45 points were Shagpile and the Cardinal. The winners will be pulled one shot whilst the duffers will each gain a shot.
FINANCES: There was no penalty for swearing today, therefore the kitty suffered whilst the air around the course turned a very dark shade of blue. P.F, C .M and P.B were penalised 50p apiece for not wearing regulation gear, although it has to be said that the Cardinal looked rather fetching in his Morpeth jacket.
CONCLUSION: The fare in the clubhouse was excellent and certainly hit the spot. The comrades chewed the cud as well as the bacon sarnies and passed a whimsical hour. Thanks were expressed to Crocs for organising the event, which is now in its third successful year of operation. Crocs, the wily old operator, merely shrugged his shoulders in a mixture of embarrassment and satisfaction at a job well and truly done.
The Laird is also due respect and gratitude for grasping the nettle and taking over the decision making due to the absence of you know who. It was agreed that the mornings efforts had proved very fulfilling with ideal weather a good course and good natured banter.
Bur T. Kwok.
Ps. John, will you please send this to the others once you have posted today’s results?
The wily old operator doesn’t recognise this label, or remember the shrugging of shoulders or any state of embarrassment other than a dismal golfing performance. Dramatic, poetic, and hon. sec. licence to the fore again !!!!
