Wednesday 7th May 2008

This week Bonalba had hollow tined and sanded the greens so our Captain in his wisdom decided to postpone the normal monthly medal and have a team game.

Each team had a piece of string about 12 inches long, on hole 1 player A could use this if his first putt on the green was within the distance of the string from the hole, when it would be counted as having been holed.

On hole 2 player B and so on. This was thought to help us with the state of the greens, but our team never managed to use the string at all !

Nearest the pin :

On the 8th, sponsored by Fiona, Gestoria of El Campello was Pieter Nagel one of our older members well done indeed.

On the 14th sponsored by CJ's Bar El Campello 965 632 576  for the second successive week our Captain Brian Fell won the bottle.

There were several twos' today Brian Fell had 2, Keith Preston, Roger March, and Pieter Nagel one each. This makes up for the other week when no-one could have one as we were in alternative shot mode.

Results :

In 2nd place with 120 points (12 under par) were Brian Rippingale, Les Wilkinson, Bill Williams and Ron MacMaster.

In 1st place with a magnificent 125 (17 under par) were John Coubrough, Stephen (the artist) Grey, Pieter Nagel and Marlies Nagel.
