Match Wexham Park vs Bird Hills, Thursday 5th May 2005

We had four teams play four ball better ball, matchplay at Bird Hills. The course was in lovely condition, helped by a sunny, fresh day. All teams had excellent games and everyone entered into the spirit of things. One game was won, two games lost (one on the last putt), the other was all square. We look forward to the return match at Wexham in September.

Lady Captain's Day, Monday 2nd May 2005

84 players enjoyed glorious sunshine for Sue Carroll's Captain's Day. First tee off was at 7 a.m. so it was a very welcome sight to be greeted by Sue on the 10th tee with halfway house refreshments. The wonderful smell of the barbeque wafted across the 18th green as we returned to the Clubhouse for drinks and celebrations - particularly for Geoff Jones who topped the day off by a hole in one on the 17th. Congratulations Geoff - sorry it was such an expensive round!

Thank you Sue for an excellent day - shame we all had to go back to work the next day!
