Oirish Stableford

In honour of the upcoming St. Paddys Day celebration we played Oirish Stableford sponsored by our non-Irish 457 Warrior Thomas Reilly.



Bejeesus away an shoite wid ya,,,,,,

Get ready SOS for a long drawn out one this week, as i'm full of blarny and guinness as i try my best to pull this one together,,, without forgetting too many of the highlights from Saturday.

Plus for the next 3 weeks i'll be without my MUSE,,,, Kerry, so i'm making the most of it heheheheheee

Just so you all know i'll be free for meals and drinks, just don't tell Kerry!!!


Before we start, a big Shout Out must go out to Nola, who came 2nd in the Margaret River Open,,,,,,,


though much to the chagrin of Steve, who stated:-

" What's the point of coming 2nd when you only win bloody throws & pillows, when everyone else gets wines & chocs!"

Oh well,,, at least you have the silverware!




As well as sponsoring the round, it would appear from the pic above that Tom is still celebrating the resurrection of his VISA!!!!
Waaahhhaaaay congrats dude, a few of us fully understand the stress that can bring,,, so welcome.



And following on from the welcomes it's great to see our reserved Ze Saffer-Germans back in the fold! 

Good to see ya Roland & Char.


Plus a joyful return to PK & Ciaran








So onwards with a brief taste of some of the outfits that were to behold the joys of Wembley.

Kerry looking resplendent, with Oirish Ted on board,,,, apparently he's like the 'monkey on your back for the golfer' but is supposed to offer kind words and support,,,,

I wonder if it worked?????








Lynne looking awesome as ever. 




The well-travelled Guinness hat is looking as great as ever.













Bah humbug, says Colin, well supported by many of others whose plans are to support it on the day,,,, with wine, women, dancing and song!!!!
I'll be there fella!


Other pics will follow later team, as i'm getting complaints the Blog is getting too long before we get to the results,,,,,,,

Onwards and upwards

Fines of the Week
Here we go for some great snippets from last Saturday's Post-Match festivities:-

Frances & Derek-- for becoming First-Time Grandparents


Don-- For being publicly disowned for his incredibly colourful and descriptive language.


Nola to PK-- remarking about the colour of his shirt
"I see you've dressed for the Oirish Stableford,,, if you were Irish that yellow shirt would be green"


Gary to Gordo-- On describing his 'ordinary' round
"Blimey i was hitting that looser than a King's Cross Hooker"



Derek-- after another ball of our team disappeared into a BlackBoy
"Those bloody BlackBoys are eating our balls like Triffids today" 



Gordo-- after hitting one of his drives a bit bush, he finds both of his lost pink balls in the same search. Top spotting!



Ciaran-- after claiming his prize, he was the only one who had an extra $10 squirreled away
"Well dat's de luck of de Oirish"


Paul-- trying to be clever, and pushing his cart to the next tee, only for it to veer off and commit Hari-Kari,,,, 
Maybe it was a sign for things to come.


The Raffle
A special mention has to go out to Ze Stangers as they cleaned out the raffle.

The Committee was NOT happy!
Hehehehehee
