With very strange times interrupting the Bunkers season this year, it was not too surprising that the last event before shut down was called off because of rain and this event commenced with dark clouds and rain for the early starters. Michelle surprised everybody by not turning up...citing inaccurate weather apps; and JohnT surprised one and all by arriving in the rain.
Play for everyone was a novel experience, except for those who were members of those clubs that had allowed play during loosened lock down. It was good to be back on a course, although lack of a hearty breakfast/lunch did affect some people’s equilibrium (mentioning no names JohnF, Frazer and DaveF).
Congratulations to the winners who overcame starvation!
A successful day, with many thanks to Sherfield Oaks for accomodating us and being flexible about the whole event. The course received mixed feedback from players, but at the end of the day it was good to be out again. Everyone now looks forward to seeing what we can do about the remaining events as the year unfolds.
