THEY SHOOT HORSES DON’T THEY?

Rodger wasn’t at golf last week as he had some surgery on his foreleg. lucky for him he’s not a horse as the result would have been drastically different with him ending up at the knackery. However to redeem himself he has offered to do the cooking next Saturday. Lets just hope the meat isn’t horse.

SPEAKING OF HORSES…….

The Stewards are asking for a swab and urine sample from one Ken Grist before he is allowed into the starting gates next week. Not only is he leading in the Fred Kitson Memorial, he also took out B grade inside along with the money hole nearest the pin. the only thing he didn’t win with our club was the ball hole which was won by the Grey Nomad (The archbishop) Just the same Ken was bemoaning the fact that he didn’t win the NTP inside. The share market is taking its toll. First Allan and now Ken.

OVERHEARD ON THE FOURTH……..

Not only do we have to be crapped on, we also have to babysit ( or words to that effect ). We won’t publish his name here but his initials start with Damian Lee.

JUST A THOUGHT

Golf is a game where a tiny ball rests on an extremely humungous ball. The object being to hit the tiny without hitting the huge ball.

Until next time,

A good turnout for the inaugral Fred Kitson Par Competition held over this week and next. I am sure Fred would be very pleased that the scoring has been so good even though its Par and it was great to see Ken get +6 for the first round also a net 59 in the clubhouse.  Right on Ken’s heels is Derek who is fighting hard to take this trophy out. Current weather forecast for Saturday is a fine day and 26 degrees so it should be an enjoyable final round and perfect conditions for the barbecue straight after the game.

Handicapping Note.
Please note the second round is played with the SAME handicap as the first round. Once the final round is completed then both rounds will be handicapped for the following weeks play after the comp is completed.

Placings for the first round are

1st-K.Grist(+6), 2nd-D.McDonald(+5), 3rd-J.Siemon(+3)

4th-G.Hill(+2) 5th-L.Mannix,D.Lee(+1)

Good luck to you all next week!

He’s b a a a ck!

Thanks to Allan I now have access to this,our sacred sight and unfortunately for him he’s my first target.

We all know by now how badly the markets are doing and how it’s affecting superanuation especially those among the higher percentile. Well,it wasn’t until Ken was overheard to make a certain statement that it was noticed how badly Allan had been treated. Ken was having a social game with Neil when he commented “Allan must be doing it hard,he didn’t pay his skins last week” Don’t worry Allan,we’ll pass the hat this week.

Everyone’s been lauding a certain Akdag for his recent achievements.

However investigations have revealed that despite a privileged education his maths aint that good.It would appear Kazim can’t count above five.

Another person under the microscope this week is the refugee from the old dart.It would appear Pepsi didn’t come back of his own volition,he was kicked out.That would explain his sudden departure from these shores.

I leave you with this following thought.

When primitve man waved sticks in the air and cursed at the sky,they called it witchcraft.When modern man does the same,they call it GOLF.

Until next time

Congratulations to our October Monthly Medal Winner Craig Sharp with an impressive net 63.
25 players turned out for this event including yet another Akdag (Mufti). In fact the rumor I heard was that the club members can now get the extra benefit of being honorary Akdag family members!!

As a Hawks supporter I was pleased to hear that Damo was given the appropriate amount of stick to the disbelievers….Go Hawks!!

The words “Its going to be Par you bastards!” are still ringing in my ears from the day the club meeting asked Freddy Kitson what format his two week competition would be in. Well you bastards it starts next week and he will be having a good old chuckle I’m sure. I’m presently down at Inverloch enjoying the wind and rain and hoping for sunshine but I do regret not being able to play in the inaugral Fred Kitson comp…good luck to you all. I believe there will be a toast before the game to Fred so from me ….Cheers Fred!

Results for today are
1st-C.Sharp(63),2nd-T.Jackson(66),3rd-S.O’Sullivan(67)
4th-D.Lee,G.Hill(68),5th-J.Siemon,T.Mifsud(69)
