Today was an Individual Stableford Competition and a qualifier for the Campbell Lamont Golf League. With only 20 members braving the hot and sticky weather this was the lowest turnout for some considerable time, however this didn´t impact the normal banter and competitive spirit.
The scores reflected the weather with no-one achieving par.
With all the Committee away at their addiction or rehabilitation clinics, Stan Tarabula kindly volunteered to administer the scorecards, much appreciated support.
No guests today unfortunately, so we saved a bottle for the future.

Congratulations to all the winners, particularly Michael who actually scored but 35 points but learned the lesson as we are constantly reminding you never trust your scorer, check every score recorded on your card before signing. We can only accept the final scores recorded on each hole.
Next Wednesday it´s the August Medal and with only 20 names on the list again, it´s a chance maybe for some new names to appear? See you next week when I will have served my sentence and we will welcome a fully rejuvenated Captain back!
