The forecast showers were spot on today with us having to suffer rain on and off all day and no carts allowed on the course. The course was very wet from continuing showers all week making it tough going for some - but not all as you can see by today's scores.

HIGHLIGHTS OF THE DAY as reported to me: I did not get any golf highlights reported to me today because all of the highlights were overshadowed by Paul & Alisha Smith who made a decision last Monday to get married after 21 years and four children together. Alisha told Paul that this Saturday was to be the day. To which Paul replied - "but that is my golf day". Not a problem said Alisha - be at the church at 9.40 am, you can make golf by hit off time and I will meet you at the Golf Club when you have finished golf! ..............and that is exactly what happened. Alisha was there, looking beautiful in her wedding dress with a glass of champagne cheering Paul in when he played the 18th hole (right in the middle of his back swing for a chip out of the bunker). What a fun day!
Have we got something to learn from this stress free wedding day? All over in one week flat - isn't that the way to do it!!!! Rain does not matter because golf goes on regardless. I have a feeling that the celebrations will go on until the early hours of the morning. Congratulations to Paul & Elisha and wishing them a memorable and very special day!
