ANNUAL DINNER & AWARDS
Firstly, a massive thankyou to Sameer and David R for organising the evening which was once again great fun. The photographs will be posted in the Rogues Gallery, top right of the website and can be viewed directly HERE.
A massive thankyou also to everyone who contributed to the drinks that were presented to the Martins,John and Keith. It is very much appreciated indeed and as we continue to say each year, not expected. The efforts of John Cullen and Alex Hall were also recognised for their part in organising the ARC and Hall Trophy.
The pint of lager throwing prize went to Alan Jones who successfully drenched Colin S just before the food arrived. Well, at least it didn't go into his parsnip soup.
The back down to earth prize went to JC who, after the RED Leaderboard placings were announced, claimed that the last time he played with the proud winner his drive off the first tee barely reached the Ladies Tee. I wish I could say that was fake news.
There was a good discussion about Swindle rules for next year which we believe resulted in a rough consensus. The new arrangements will be published on the website when they are rewritten.
Finally, the annual Prof. Gus 'Statto' Merelie lecture went down a treat as usual and exposed some great insights into the year's play, some of which did not make good listening for some attendees ! Gus, I am not playing off 13, period ! The Stats will be posted as usual down the bottom left hand side of the website when I receive them.
