Thanks to Two Beers for the organisation of the trip to Eyemouth and Berwick.
Thanks to Herbie for organising the away day to Tyneside.
Herbie requires final numbers asap for the awayday to Ponteland on 23 October.
Observations from the course by the Laird, he spotted Bagpipes tee shot at the 17th, he duffed the shot hit the bridge and landed on the green, where he duly two putted for a par! Clearly, he was destined to win!
Further observations were made from last Friday’s game; however, they are deemed not relevant to appear in the minutes.
The meeting closed at 13.01.
The Scribe forgot to mention that he had met The Falcon last week. He was in good spirits and sent his regards to the MOHGS. He does like to receive the minutes, so I hope he accepts the Scribe’s apologies for not mentioning him at the meeting.
