A sign of rain - mushrooms on the 2nd fairway

The dams are nicely filled after some good rainfall over the last couple of days - the gardens and fairways will recover and happy golfing days ahead.

Our playing partners today were Duncan and Rosalie Dyer.  The weather was good and the company was good - pity about the golf. Peter was our champion coming in with 38 points and Rosalie having a credible 3rd position in the ladies.
