AOB : Emperor advised that the Laird had sorted the Hobson’s match for Monday 3 July, as The Laird is having a break in Tenerife, could all MOHGS advise The Emperor of their availability and at today’s meeting we have confirmed as Crocs, Monty, Matador & Emperor.

Also, the Emperor advised he requires names by Wed 24th for next Monday 29th May, so tee times can be adjusted to suit. The Emperor also spoke with Julia regarding the MOHGS reserved tee times that have become “active” of late and she came back and advised that herself and Margaret have found the problem and all should be OK from now (I/we will find out tonight as Newcastle FC kick off at St James), as at today’s meeting we have confirmed for 29th May as Crocs, Monty, 2 Beers & Emperor

Scuttler advised he will not be available for MOHGS until 10 July

Matador is off on his hols tomorrow for 4 weeks and will not be back until 26^th June

Geezer advised that he will not be available for 29^th May

Kwok not available for 29^th May & Hobsons match on 3^rd July

2 Beers not available for Hobsons match on 3^rd July

The meeting closed at 1.06 – could have been earlier but Matador was explaining a life-or-death situation to Kwok that delayed the start of the meeting for all of 10 mins. 2 Beers was too busy preparing his scone that he just let Matador ramble on and on and on.
