Thirteen players this morning, the Competition Secretary having little option but to have a singles competition with 4 clubs plus a putter! It should be noted than only 15  holes were in play so the scores will reflect that.

Two Beers was in the Chair. It was the first meeting since 23 October due to the inclement weather.

Competition Results.

No two’s today £2.60 goes into the Finance tin.

Duffer of the Day was Two Beers with 20 points.

Deputy Duffer of the Day was Kwok with 21 points.

In third place were The Cardinal, Laird and Ming with 30 points. They get nothing!

In second place and getting £2 each were Brains and Herbie with 31 points.

However, the undoubted winners this week were The Geezer and Davo who both scored 33 points. They get £4.50.

Handicaps will be adjusted in the time-honoured manner.

Swears raised £4.00 and the Levy raised £6.50, Geezer cards raised £3.00. £16.10 in the hands of Herbie who will pass on to The Emperor

Toasts

Toasts were offered for El Tel RIP.

Toast to the Scottish Curling Team (men) who apparently won the European Championships. I can’t think how that passed me by, thanks to The Laird for informing us all!!

Last meeting’s minutes were accepted. No-one could remember back to 23 October.

No Matters Arising surprisingly!

AOB

Brains (who is to step into the Comp. Sec. role in the absence of The Laird) announced that next Monday the balls will be in the hat at 8.45am, first tee time 9am.

The following Monday is Christmas Party day so first tee time is 10.10 am with balls in the hat at 9.55am. Participants were reminded that it will be three clubs and a putter competition for the Christmas Trophy.

The Geezer proposed that if the two’s pot was not won, the winner of the day’s competition should pocket the cash! Unfortunately, his proposal could find no seconder in the tumbleweed.

Crocs voiced concerns from The Financial Director that due to lack of game time on Monday’s, the coffers were suffering. The Cardinal suggested that we address the issue at the AGM.

On that note, the meeting closed at 12.50.
