With Carolyn Buttsworth at the 1st Tee

We had a rather warm day for our golf today on the Village Green saved by the occasional breeze that was very much appreciated. Our playing partners were Carolyn Buttsworth minus Ray Buttsworth who was a bit under the weather with a virus. Carolyn was our Champion today playing excellent golf which gave me some encouragement to lift my game to  almost reach a respectable score. Our best highlights were Carolyn scoring 2 four pointers and Peter having a gobbler on the 10th.
