Bert Brink - the best dressed golfer on the Village Green

With Helen Stuart and Mark Stimpson at the 1st Tee

We had our first "Summer" day on the village green today. Thank heavens there was some wind to keep the temperature down.  Our playing partners today were Mark Stimpson and Helen Stuart and we had a great day on the village green with plenty of highlights to make our day. The boys started off with a birdie each on the 1st and 2nd hole,  then my highlight was to outdrive them on the 3rd and follow that up with a birdie on the 5th, the girls won the Keno ticket on the 18th.
