It is with great relief that I can report that all members managed to leave Luton unscathed. Marley assured us that Luton was a good place, but I remain unconvinced. Did meet a nice bloke called Ron who claimed to be an acquaintance of Marley, but again I am unconvinced.
Anyway thanks to Marley we had a very enjoyable round of golf at this rather polluted course- I counted 72 planes landed at London Luton and only 30 took off! I hope I have mentioned your name enough Marley- hopefully people will now talk to you at the next event.
Fortunately we had our enigmatic Captain on hand to administer on the day and all went smoothly as would be expected when he takes things into hand. There are other people worth mentioning too- our Society photographer on the day - Dynamo. Pictures were rubbish- you must do better next time.
We also had a few absentees, most notable was a certain Mr Brownjohn who felt that the course was beneath him ( correct judgement in my opinion ) but he has fallen foul of the committee for his attitude and as you would expect from our beloved Captain , he has been punished for the forthcoming tour! Please see below BJ.
On the day there were some remarkable scores considering that the putting surfaces were like a floor laid by a certain local builder. Anyhow on to the winners.
In first place romping home, playing Any Which Way But Loose was Darren "Cholla" Smith with 43 points.
Second place went to Mr Max Bygraves (Justin) with a fabulous level par round (off 5 ) with 41 points
and in Third came our very own Treasurer Rocky on 40 points.
Justin won nearest the pin in 2 and Dan Maguire won the nearest the pin.
Team winners were Trevor, "Cholla" and the other 2 in that group.
Numpty was our beloved Captain for being a great guy I think.
The naff pictures of the day are below.
We also have a picture sent to us by BJ from the WGC GC awards night for your perusal.
The committee has once again decided to run a Reckie Tour for next years summer Tour. This has now become quite an important fixture in our quest to make golfing good for our society- the lengths we go to. I hope you all appreciate our endeavours. we are checking out Malaga (again) in November. Once again a quite impressive forethought of our fantastic Captain- what a guy.
The Christmas Salver this year has again been booked and will be at the venerable venue of Royal Aston - for a change on the 27th December 2016. Further details will follow but book it into your festive activities.New handicaps below.
Mark Brownjohn has been cut 2 shots for non-attendance and is now off 7.
