Never forget you are doing this because you enjoy it.

Today I discussed this with several people and it turns out that no one is quite sure why we do it but it definitely is not because we enjoy it.

So the first day of winter and it had everything except snow, that bitter east wind blew my umbrella 150 yards down the 16th fairway. My drive went further but not as straight.

So congratulations to Alex Tyrell who with 38 beat the other 9 stalwarts by at least 5 shots.

The 9 hole game was played by 6 plucky old timers and Ken Gregory. Richard Brown won with 19 points

Three UBoat matches were played five to go in round 1


You've all done very well
