The 1st Bunkers event of 2025, with 16 players attending, including 2 guests. It was good to see Darren Anderson who we haven't seen for nearly 2 years, welcome back ! Also welcoming back Julie Wilding for her 2nd guest appearance at a Bunkers event after ......... 18 YEARS.
We were treated to very fine weather, the fairways were in excellent condition considering the very wet period recently. Sausage, mash and peas, followed by lemon posset was a great, after golf meal.
In the absence of Paul Beard, Luke Peters acted as fine meister. He dressed for the occasion and was duly fined for being too smart !
