Stableford

Yep, it was hot.

I'm putting myself in the hands of Lewis Hamilton here.

But not unpleasantly so.

That one's gone out of sight

Particularly as most of us opted to drive around in carts

The starting grid


And pay the penalty for "tanking" when the fines came around.




Now, this week's quiz question. Who got up so early this morning they couldn't see to put their shirt on the right way round? Answer at the end.



Special thanks to Steph for driving in all the way, so that we could enjoy the ultimate thrill at the end of the day - the raffle!

Couldn't let you miss the raffle

Next week - the Annual Dinner at Al Fornetto in Innaloo. If you haven't paid yet - do so. Free wine, beer and champagne on the night, plus entertainment.

After you. No, no, after you.

And joy of joy, no theme! Wear whatever you want.



Also, thanks to Keith for an endless supply of golf jokes and movies. I'll be rationing them out, don't worry.

Now here's a rare picture, that could appreciate in value - it's not very often you see Max picking up the lollies (mind, he is playing off a handicap of five and a half or something)

It's becoming a habit

Third week in a row! Time to crack them open and test those urine samples.



Gary is investigating prices for shirts from a new supplier who can do short and long-sleeved in similar designs - something we've had difficulty in sourcing from our current supplier. They look a bit like this - ignore the colour.



Pretty smart, huh?

The Golden Hole went off this afternoon - not the mega jackpot on the Old, but still a thoroughly respectable $72. By splitting the income we're hoping we won't have to pay tax on it (that's Peter's advice, anyhow).

Ian has now reached Tasmania, where the weather has been rather more wintry than here - but he's having a ball, and won't be rushing back.

I'm sure I hit up here somewhere - bit hard to find in the snow

Don't have this problem in Perth

Pretty big rats here in Tassie


Police are called to an apartment and find a woman holding a bloody 3-iron standing over a lifeless man. The detective asks, "Ma'am, is that your husband?"
"Yes" says the woman.
"Did you hit him with that golf club?"
"Yes, yes, I did." The woman begins to sob, drops the club and puts her hands on her face.
"How many times did you hit him?"

“I don't know -- put me down for a five."







Maybe not such a scam, after all?





Yes, it was Earle. The sun obviously wasn't up yet when he got dressed. 


 



Most of us had a reasonable round today, but there's always the odd hole where you feel like punishing the club that got you into trouble. Here are a few golfers who know all about that feeling.
