Twelve golfers this morning enabled the Competition Secretary to suggest a four ball better ball competition. Pair selected out of the hat. Yet again The Cardinal was in the last group, however he enjoyed the company of his playing partners.

The round was somewhat challenging as the green staff were working on the greens, it meant that not all groups played to the same holes!!! However, the Competition Secretary, quite rightly, decreed that the NOHGS play each course as presented without whinging.

The Chairman’s role was grabbed by Herbie.

Previous Meeting’s Minutes

Accepted as a true record.

Matters Arising

There were no matters arising.

Any Other Business

After a sleepless night, The Laird suggested that on Mondays, those MOHGS who wish to register for casual round for handicap purposes may do so. The Geezer observed that only when the MOHGS play singles is that allowable and clearly have to putt out.

It was agreed that anyone wishing to do so can!

Anyone wishing to join The Laird, Kwok and Brains at 7.40 on Wednesday would be welcome.

There being no further business, the Chair closed the meeting at 12.57.
