We welcomed two new guests, David Brennan and Steve Jinks and the word on the street is that Steve and Raymond Yassim really enjoyed their game together and increased their vocabularies by a number of explicit words !!

At Oceanico Pinhal 5 players did not manage the 30 points barrier and gratefully received their bonus shot. Mary Strutt now off 19, Heather Ward 18, Raymond Yassim 17, David Brennan 13 and Ann Campbell 22.

Three players came in with 33 points – David Bowles, Will Cogan and Chris Milford, with Steve winning on a count back.

For the first time that I can remember we did not have a “Closest to the Pin” winner on the 5th hole, so we will carry the wine over to the next game.

Prize winners :

1st – Will Cogan: 33pts
2nd – Chris Milford 33pts
3rd – David Bowles 33pts

Steve Jinks took the Nearest the Pin on the 14th & Longest drive on the 16th. As he was flying back to the UK on Sunday he donated his two bottles of wine back to the Society and we will use these for the next game as well; nice one Steve – well done.

On Wednesday 20th we will be playing our first Roll Up game at The Old Course and a lot of interest has been shown for this event – so get get your names onto the board at Parky’s.

Seventeen players tuned up on a cold and blustery day at Oceanico Millennium Golf Club and thanks to the efforts of the course starter we were able to get the flights off earlier and back into the pub by 6.00pm The conditions certainly had an influence on the scores with only five players scoring above 30 points – Jane Nicholls, Peter Vaughan, Peter Densham, Will Cogan and David Bowles – well done to all of you.

Results:
1st – 35 Points – David Bowles (9)
2nd – 33 points – Peter Densham (16)
3rd – 32 Points – Will Cogan (10)

Closest to the pin – 6th – Richard Horsepool (11) and on the 15th – David Brennan (12) Longest drive on the 4th – David Bowles
