As the Comp Sec left early, the deputy Comp Sec announced the results.

One two recorded today at the 17th by Davo, he pockets £3.40

The Cardinal announced it was a thing of beauty! It was unclear if he was referring to the two shots or just his assessment of Davo!

No Matters Arising

AOB

The Laird left a detailed interpretation of the rules regarding hitting balls on the green. This is lodged with the Scribe who can produce it when required, however the most important ruling is that there is no penalty when MOGHS are at play!!

Bumpers was somewhat put out when he realised that there were seventeen players, he offered to drop out and play with others. He was informed that he would have to pay the levy if he did not play!

The Emperor assured Bumpers that the statement was made in jest but Bumpers was unsure. Since the Competition Secretary was absent it was agreed to revisit the issue next Monday, however the Chair sagely stated that if you don’t play, you don’t pay!

With that he announced the meeting was concluded at 12.55.
