An interesting start to the fixture with James messaging to say he wouldn't be able attend because he'd got the wrong date in his diary and the Michelle arriving only to advise us that she wouldn't be playing in the terrible rainy weather conditions. True it had been raining hard but the forecast was for improvement. Those who were first to tee off in the early groups did encounter some heavy showers but the day eventually did brighten and dry conditions were enjoyed for most of the golf.
Phil Richards won the day with an impressive 40 points beating Captain Dave Shorter into second place with 36 points. Paul H, Mike and Luke all finished with 35 points each and Luke snatched third place on countback.
Dinner was really good we can all agree on that. Main course dish was Roast ham with roast potatoes, carrots, broccoli and gravy. Desert was Sticky Toffee pudding and vanilla custard.
