Golf - Tuesday 25th November 2008

As most of the Gosford Golfers would be aware this has not been the best week of my life!

However this blog is all about highlights and my highlight has been that I am still here and I have no permanent injuries. I will be back playing golf in just a few short weeks I hope.

I would like to thank everyone who have been so wonderful to me over the past week of trials & tribulations and for the lovely flowers (photos attached), cards, phone calls and well wishes. The world would be a sad place without family and friends.

Today was our Ladies Closing Day for 2008 and the event was a Team Stableford 1 x 2 x 3 Nett and Scratch. We had 88 starters on a great day for golf. As you can see by the photos most of our girls dressed up in Christmas attire and looked fantastic. It all adds to the spirit of the day.

From the photos it looks like everyone had a WOW! of a day.
