Apologies from all those not here.

Present:- GW, PB, PL, TM, TH, DF, CM, MD, CC BR (meeting only)

The Rabbi was cajoled into the Chair.

Nine players this Bank Holiday Monday, first game of the season off the yellows! Originally a 4BBB competition was arranged, but the late arrival of Ming forced the Competition Secretary to be nimble of mind and announce three 3-man teams with 2 scores from the 3 off 90% handicap!!

Competition Results;

One two recorded today, The Scuttler at the 4^th. He gets £1.80.

Duffers of the Day were Ming, Rabbi and Davo with 69 points.  

DDoTD and Runners Up were The Geezer, The Cardinal and El Matador with 71 points.

Champions of the week were Crocs, Scuttler and The Laird with 77 points, getting £3 each.

Handicaps will be adjusted in the time honoured fashion.

As it was a Bank Holiday, swears and Geezer Cards were non-existent! Does this create a precedent??

The levy raised £4.50.

Toasts

The Laird (maintaining the Caledonian connection) proposed a toast to the Scotland Men’s Curling World Champions!

The rest proposed a toast to John Rahm for becoming the Master’s Champion 2023.

In the nick of time, The Geezer was toasted for winning the Seniors Competition last Wednesday with a non-MOHG (John Storey), they now hold the Bennet Trophy!

Last week’s minutes were accepted.

Matters Arising

The Cardinal acknowledged the omission from the minutes of Johnnie’s point that the next MOHGS away day was the day following the Seniors visit to the Hirsel.

AOB

Crocs has not yet spoken to Burgham re the gratis 4 balls.

The Laird requested names asap for the RNLI day at Newbiggin on 23 June and names for the trip to Hobson for the match where 11 more players are required on 19 June.

Finally, getting at no one in particular (Ming), can MOHGS please turn up in plenty of time for the draw at 8.15am

The meeting closed at 12.50pm.
