Competition Results;

Two twos posted by The Laird in his capacity as the Assistant Temporary Competition Organiser. He scooped the pot of £2.80!

Duffer of the Day was The Cardinal with a shocking score of only  20 points.

Deputy Duffer was Brains with just one more point!

Runner up was Bumpers, but since he had already left The Cardinal held his £4 winnings in the swears tin.

Winner on the day was Biggles with a marvellous 46 points. Obviously serving Queen and County is working wonders for his golf! One suspects that not much serving is happening.

Handicaps to be adjusted as per the rules of MOHGS, even though there were suggestions about adjusting Biggles’ handicap on general play. Fortunately the voice of reason prevailed.

Geezers Cards were in play and returned £3.60

Swears made £3.60 which was a much better effort than the last week. We must remember that Christmas is not far away!

Toasts:

Jordan Smith who won the German Open, always nice for an Englishman to win in Germany. Also a muted toast to the Lionesses although making the semi-final on the European Champs is very laudable, they ain’t won nothing yet!

Previous minutes were agreed as a correct record.

Matters Arising

None

AOB

Please note there are only 3 tees booked for next Monday starting at 8.30am be early or miss out!

Shagpile announced a return visit to Bedlington on Monday 9 October at £11 per head. He has also made a request of Morpeth Directors that visiting parties to MOHGS should pay £11 per head. Watch this space for a reply.

The Cardinal announced that he had played at Warkworth last week for only £10 and the course was in very good nick.

Biggles wished it to be noted that he considered Morpeth to be in excellent nick and that the greenstaff should be congratulated.

Please add Biggles monika to the distribution list.
