The rain and showers have tested us out this weekend with intermittent showers between an otherwise acceptable day.

Our playing partners today were Kevin  O’Brien and Lorraine Bignall who gave us all of our highlights today the best of which was three birdies (and a close eagle) from Kevin.

The Golf Event of the day was a Single Stableford for Men and Ladies. There were not enough starters to hold a team event.

We had 26 starters.

HIGHLIGHTS OF THE DAY as reported to me: Kevin O’Brien had birdies at the 1st, 8th and 10th (almost an Eagle) and scored 37 points; Lorraine Bignall had a birdie at the 5th and pars at the 6/3/11th; Karen Askins was an improved player winning the ladies event today including 5 x 3 pointers on the back 9; Michael Cheetham had a very steady game for 38 points to win the Men’s singles event; Steve Turner had a birdie at the 7th including winning nearest the pin; my highlights were playing with good players which gave me encouragement to enjoy the day regardless of the rain - sadly I did not finish with the same ball I started with.
