Golf - Tuesday 5th October 2010

We had a mixed bag of weather today getting overcast weather that fined up to hot & sunny that changed half way to heavy showers/light showers and then back to hot & sunny. The course was playing well & the past few days rain has not had any devastating effect on the fairways or the greens.

My playing partners were Lesley Gregory & Julie Hazzard who were great company. We did have some highlights during the day but were not too impressed with the heavy downpour of rain mid play. I am a fair weather player & my score indicated that.

The Event of the day was a Ladies Single Stableford with vets in conjunction and we had 64 starters.
