Stableford Tuart Course Saturday 27th December 2014

Sponsor:  Ullrich Stanger

Hopefully everybody will be able to see this post as we had gremlins in the system last week.

After a busy week of parties I think we were all a bit lethargic on Saturday, as we had a few players in contention for the "lollies" or else they were just having a sweet tooth!  The course was very quiet and weather was extremely hot.  I invited my sister and brother-in-law to join us for a game of golf.  With Nola making up the team, the day sure made for a lot of laughter.  Magnus had the longest drive and then followed it up with a 50m head up shot.  Ended up ringing the hole.  Nice one Mags.
You did however, show potential when you were putting for an Eagle on the 6th hole but ended up with a birdie.  Great job.

Nola came for a round of exfoliation - spend most of the day in the bunkers! Ha, ha Noles!
"Bon Voyage" to Nola and Steve have a great holiday and come back soon.

It was nice to see Steph showing up again for a game, although it was just to collect the money on the Golden Hole! just not fair!!!!

XMAS CUP

Sponsor: Brett Fordham


Stableford Wembley Old Course Saturday 20th December 2014
Perfect conditions for the Xmas Cup. With everybody in good spirit we headed off to a great day of windy golf! I was teamed up with The Captain and The Gardner. It was an entertaining day with Earle checking all my scores, and would not allow an extra two points - damn, that's a lawyer for you.

After golf we jetted off to Derek and Frances's beautiful house and the tranquil garden setting made for a perfect Xmas Party. My spies told me that ROSS CAMPBELL became a double slut on the 14th hole I think.
Off the Ladies Tee for three and still managed to score "5" for 3 points! seriously Ross, you need to give us lessons on this move!

Scores: 
M Freeman, C Kerr 39; J Holm, C Stanger, G Pope 38; G Bennett 37; D Longhurst 35; B Freeman, D Beesley 34; F Longhurst, R Osborne, P McCleod, G Burgess, P Gardner 33; K Gardner, E Scarff 32;
C Wolpers, D Williamson, R Campbell 31; L Malone, I Holm 30; B Fordham 39; G Ong 27; P Baird 26


The Winner of the trophy went to none other than Mrs Mardi Freeman with a "39" score - had to beat me by one point!
The laugh of the day was the sponsored prize. A bottle of Crown in a wine box, thanks to Phil! To those who were there would know what this was all about. Great sense of humour Phil. Mardi eventually was given a choice of wines thanks to the Hosts and Vicky.

Thank you to all for a wonderful afternoon and Kerry keep that fly closed! Thanks for organizing the day, great job once again.

Mr Santa had an awesome afternoon with everybody sitting on his lap and kisses flowing in abundance! Now for the photos of the day:

Anniversary Cup

A gusty day, but not enough to excuse some pretty poor work around the greens. Some of us certainly need some lessons on just how to put that ball in the hole, with a notable contribution of two four-putts from Paul, but who was by no means the only offender.

She's my sister, and she's not supposed to beat me.



Dave Mandy handed in his third card with a creditable 92 off the stick, and the Golden Hole has now jackpotted to $105 - a couple more weeks and it'll be worth going for.


See, if I make it nearest the pin in 2, and make the 2 really small, I win everytime.

Someone tell her she has to bribe the captain a little more discreetly..

Well done, Bruce (who also won the raffle - how does that work?)

Time to reinforce the mantlepiece, Bruce.

Remember, next week straight to Fran and Derek's after the game. If you play and don't plan to make it to the Christmas Cheer, make sure someone who does, has your card.
One more wormburner and I'm taking up lawn bowls...
