Pairs both scores count November 21st 2019 plus Andrew Mitchell's birthday


Five holes are still closed on the course and Hole one still being played as a par 3. No buggies were allowed but the fairways were slightly better than Tuesday's heavy ground. A cold bitter wind was the prevailing weather condition and that can only help with the drying process, although rain is forecast over the weekend and into next week.

Today's results - Pairs - Both Scores to Count:

First:        Harold Hughes and Mike Drake        48 points

Second:    Richard Key and Dave Palferman     44 points

Third:        Mick Carnell and Bob Jarvis            43 points (Countback)

Fourth:      Maelor Davies and Peter Taylor       43 points (Countback)

We decided not to hold a twos competition with two of the par 3 holes being closed but it was rather disappointing for the Hon. Sec. as he scored twos on both the 5th and 12th, sadly without recompense.

Looking forward to Tuesday 26th - we are playing the second round of the Winter League and on Thursday 28th picking up on the postponed November medal -  names already in the booking system from last time!! Please check.

Andrew Mitchell's 75th birthday today, and once all 36 of today's players were back in the clubhouse after this morning's game, Hayley had a nice surprise for him when she came out with a freshly made and iced birthday cake, complete with message and lit candles. (See photos). All sang a very tuneful (!?) rendition of 'Happy Birthday' before being treated to a piece of the cake each.
Happy Birthday Andrew! 🎉🍷🎈








For those on Facebook Hayley posted a video of Andrew receiving his cake.
