MatchPlay Semis & 4BBB stableford

Very kindly sponsored by Steve & Nola DeSantis.


After my last weekends debacle I was looking forward to a beautiful day of some wondrous golf.
Peter Baird aka The WeatherMan had assured me that this was to be a fine sunny winters day, and low and behold he was correct!
Good on ya Pete.




As we assembled for the Tee-Off unfortunately we were delayed a tad as the society group before us had smuggled in a couple of other players, something which we have done ourselves on occasion in the past,,, so lets not stress about this as the following is quite apt:-




It did actually provide some of us some time to consider our upcoming games and a chance for the ladies to catch up on some gossip.


Ladies that lunch

Last minute practise































At this point I should welcome my guest, Dean Palmer, who once introduced was bombarded by misinformation and slanderous comments about me by various members (you know who you are!!!)*.


Ignore what they say about me, they tell lies!
* too many to name

I would like to state that the majority of the comments are indeed false, and that Dean knows me well enough to sift through the BS,,, hehehehehe

Who knew that Dean was part of the latest Chick Flick,,,,,,


"Magic Dean,, Wiry & Strong"





Ashes Update
The first part of the sprinkler is in place, as England comprehensively out-played the Aussies in every department.
I'n sure however that they will bounce back strongly at the home of cricket, Lords, on Thursday.



Let the fantastic entertainment continue!

Play of the Day
The Play of the Day I'm afraid has to go to the well deserving multi-talented acrobat, Peter Baird.
Not only is he The WeatherMan but he has shown he can certainly throw some moves.
In his eagerness to present the Raffle Prize his chair got caught up and he fell "A over T" onto the floor, albeit in fantastic slow motion.




Fortunately our esteemed Treasurer was unhurt, as due to the thousands of hours of acrobatic training he has learned how to fall! 


Xmas in July
As mentioned in the announcements, Earle  & Vickie have kindly loaned their house for our Xmas in July that is to be held on the 1st August,,,,, yes I know!!!!!!!!


If you wish to come along and enjoy the wintery festivities, some fine food, a "Queens Speech", and other random activities please let Brett know asap so we can gauge numbers.

A typical Gardner lie




Apologies Brett, your pics didn't transfer so I couldn't use them.

Woo hoo,, bring it on!
