Changing of The Guard- Perry Lakes Cup 2017

Sponsored by the gorgeous Wifey.

And so the New Season begins with The Changing of the Guard, and the new El Presidente, The Vickster, showing us the way down the middle of the fairway.

what a fine shout it was as it soared down the middle to tumultuous applause from the madding crowd!!!

Let the season begin!!!

With the change in the Committee it also falls upon me to welcome you to your new BlogMeister, as the lovely Stiff takes over the reigns.

So this is indeed my 'swansong', and a very poor one it will be,,,,,,

especially as all my notes ended up in the wash due to an ever-keen Wifey who in her urgency to get the grotty washing done failed to notice the paper in my back pocket,,,,, and it subsequently came out a little bit mushed!!!

Oooppppsss!

The Results
Well, well, well,,,,,,, with the start of the new season came some cracking golf scores, with our lowest handicapper, Phil Mickle McKeague, narrowly missing out on the Trophy and a 'par' round to good old Ron Argus Conway

Quality rounds guys,,,,,,, and also mention must go to Deadly Derek, for taking home the sugary prize, even after attempting to lose his card in the carpark.

Hey Deadly, i live by the adage that if you don't come first you may as well come last!

Anyway on with the detail:-

1^st Ron Conway 41 (Birdie 6^th)

2^nd Phil McKeague 40 (Birdies 9^th, 14^th, 15^th, 16^th)

3^rd Roger Blatchford (CB) 36

4^th Glen Pope (Birdie 7^th) 36

5^th Don Beesley (CB) 35

6^th Jan Rowling 35

Brenda Jones, Stan Tan 34

Frances Longhurst, Paul Gardner (Birdie 12^th) 33

Rob Gray, Peter Baird 32

Gordon Neilsen 31

Dave Williamson, Richard Yeo, Kerry Gardner, Stephanie Jeffares 30

Lynne Malone, Richard Osborne, Thomas Reilly 28

Ross Campbell 27

Shelley Yeo 26

Derek Longhurst 22 (Derek was nearly successful in avoiding the lollies when his card was “temporarily” lost!)

Congrats also to Roger (yet to think of an appropriate nickname for you) for his competitive round for the club and coming a creditable 3rd,,,,
Reap it while ya can buddy!!!!

Novelties
Apart from the Golden Hole not going off and therefore increasing,,,,,, i don't reall have a clue what happened?!

I'm pretty sure with the number of birdies that McMickel-Keague would've won one,

as would The Argus

Ex-BlogMeister Gardi didn't win a novelty but can boast another birdie on the 12th hehehehehehheeeee

And i think that Lyn The Mucker Malone may have won the longest drive?????

But in hindsight, all of the above could be just a figment of my over-active imagination,,,,

Fines of The Week
None really to speak of, cos i can't remember any, so the only one goes to my beloved:-

Wifey -- for destroying my copious notes with the hasty washing!
Ahh bless!!! xxx
