Sir Clive celebrates VE Day

Victory over Evans as he takes out 'Good Evans' from Summer KO.

Andy Row Lands a bitter blow to Peter Spent So Far

and James bids Sayonari to Gingell Bells...

..although James is still hurting after being dismissed from Pairs KO by Sweet William combo

All these results are on Club Website under Competitions / Knockouts..but for some reason Clive has asked us to publish his own result here - such a modest chap.

MoneyPenny has left us...

Everyone's favourite Staff member , Mrs Penny Scriven has departed to set up her own business after 9 Years of looking after 150 moaning old bastards...

..that's us, by the way.

She may pop up today to say goodbye or is it Sayonara ?

Meantime , devious Chris Gingell is bringing a Card to Sign and taking Cash Donations to bid farewell in a more tangible way.

If you appreciate what Penny has done for us over so many years - please add to this collection so we can assist her in her future plans .

Chris will collect for a few days, so no panic just yet. He'll deliver to her home later on.

If you are not around, send me a note & I'll put in for you and we can sort later.

The Sunset of a Beautiful Lady's Life.

At a packed Yeovil Crematorium, around 100 filled the venue to bid farewell to a lovely Lady with an amazing Family.

Golfers were very well represented by ‘The Old Guard’ – and their Ladies of course as we were once a very socially active Seniors Section.

Ted & Judith drove over from West Bay as her eyes are beginning to improve. Norman & Sue; Rosemary & Nick; Rosemary & Alan; John & Diana; Maureen & Stuart; Kathy & Steve; Bert

Dozens more from Tatworth and the surrounding Villages; Skittle Teams, Pantomime Group; Stowell Court; Perry Street Club; Pub Regulars – and so many more reflecting the impact Mick & Marie had in the area.

The Family added another 30, headed by Angie& Andy / Kevin & Helen – then their kids, then their kids – so 4 Generations of Aldridges.

Nicely conducted Ceremony with lots of memories of Marie. The full impact of the occasion hit Mick as he strode in to take his seat at the very front. He was very visibly and emotionally moved, gazing upon the Coffin and flower arrangements saying Nana and Mum. When a photo collage appeared, showing Marie in her youth, Mick audibly gasped as the black and white image of her aged just 14 appeared.

They had been together 65 Years…since their School Days.

Every alternate order of service contained a pack of seeds to sew in her memory. Her Garden was her pride and joy.

Granddaughter Jessica wrote, then bravely read a poem. Son Kevin then told us Marie’s Life story. We always learn so much about our friends at this time – seems a shame that we don’t know all the facts when they are still with us.

As we left the venue, Mick bravely stood and greeted everyone – amazingly showing good recognition of names and faces. Fair to say there were tears at both ends of the handshakes and hugs.

Off to the beautiful Hornsbury Mill that was bathed in sunshine as we sat in the gardens. Large portraits of Marie were all around and all of the many floral tributes had been set up as pictured.

Lovely buffet was available and the Mill did themselves proud. There could have been few other places that can compete on a day such as this.

Apologies if this is all a bit long-winded for those that did not know Marie, or even Mick in his prime as Seniors Captain in 2008 – but we write to a much larger audience than the current Members.
