Golf - Sunday 13th January 2013

It seems that we had a very jovial presentation night tonight

Was it that everyone was very happy that the heavy rain was after golf?

or was it "Full Moon"? (could not tell for cloud cover!)

Some nice rain tonight (after golf) was very welcome.  I guess a few of the stragglers may have got a bit wet but it is a very welcome change after all of our hot weather and the gardens and fairways will be smiling.

My thanks to Lorraine Bignall for filling in for me with tonight's presentation photos. - Thanks Lorraine!
