T'was a fine day for golf as it happened to fall on the most wondrous of days that is St George's Day, so in honour i regaled in the red & white of the Mother Country.
In true spirit of such a day tensions were high as people readied themselves for the off.
Even the Scarlet Pimpernel was feeling the stress of the upcoming competition,,,,,, almost succumbing to a full frontal pic!
To help celebrate the magnificence of the day we welcomed back
Phil The Gambler McCleod, Son-in-Law Jason, and the inimitable Rich Angry Yeo.
Yep Jase, you had better check your change!
And then there was my beautiful wifey, with her new set of Pings, just waiting to be christened in the rough.
Unfortunately although the new clubs fared well, the putter seemed to fail!
A slightly dishevelled wifey was heard to utter
"Fkn hate golf" as yet another Garcia finally dropped.
At least Ernie Els never showed his face,,, hehehheeee
Captains Corner
Never again – missing golf for a godchild’s Ice Age mammoth Adventure!
Well done to Ron for fantastic 66 (gross 82) dropping 1 stroke to 15 (GA 14.3) on the Old course but have heard that he is looking for a new driver as Rita left him and the cart on the 18th green with big brother repeating ‘forbidden area”.
Steffi was the only other player to lose a stroke down 1 to 19 (GA 17.7) (for both the Old & Tuart courses).
Next week Ambrose Pairs with Clement & Co as the sponsor.

Novelties
Unfortunately due to cooking and cleaning duties, and the announcements starting a trifle early, i haven't a clue who won what for the day,,,,
I do know i got my name on one, despite Brett almost forgetting the marker and having to run back to the hole amidst a chorus of "fine, fine, fine" from the group behind hehehehhehe
But big thanks to Fran & Kerry for providing the beautiful salads,,,, and for Brett and myself for the chefing duties and providing such fine beverages!
And yes Peter, there is some left!
Golden Hole
Well done to the miraculous Dave, who clearly had a very mixed round.
Although coming last, and therfore winning the lollies, at least he managed one good shot as he took home the massive prize pot of $47.
Spend it wisely my good man!
Fines of the Week
Firstly there has to be a massive fine for Davo for a very 'mixed' round, but what else do we have????
An absolute classic and a very true assessment of the game
Derek to Paul -- after being on the range i enquired politely:-
"How'd you go Derek, getting any betterer?"
"Unfortunately not Paul, i'm just practising the problems!"
Then there was the strangely boisterous Vickie,,,, must be taking advantage as Earl was off entertaining the god-child:-
Vickie -- "i'm actually feeling a little bit diabolical"
as she crashes her cart into another unsuspecting driver
And continuing on the cart theme
Rita -- getting involved a game of Cart Wars, as after dropping off Ron to the 18th green, the buggy's GPS seemed to malfunction shouting
"No entry, return to Fairway"
like an insane dalek and forcing Rita to have to reverse all the way back to the clubhouse!
Comedy genius,,, if only i had a pic!!!
And then there was another entry by Davo, who after filling his plate with sausage and salad proceeded to wander around accusing people of stealing his beer!
Hopefully you found the culprit.
Random Pics
Cart wars eh Vickie & Rita???
Get in quick Stiff, before those Kookaburras get it!
Looking a bit pensive there Bernie.
Listening intently,,,,,,
Worst raffle in the world evers
Ahhh my friend, beer,,, how i've missed you
Loving the scoff
Glorious arvo for a BBQ, not bad for Autumn.
Will we ever get a pic of the Pimpernel????
I love a good sausage.
Great pic
Wifey and I will be at the Taste of Perth next week, eating & drinking to our hearts content,,,, so see ya in a couple of weeks.
Enjoy the Ambrose Pairs!
