Special
Announcement
The Captain,
Barrie Heath, has expressly asked that the money collected for the raffle at
the Burns Day lunch on Wednesday. 24th January be donated to Dee
instead of this years main charity. Dee's
husband Barry Pie died suddenly just before Christmas. You will remember them
as cleaners at CST. Please be generous at this difficult time for Dee.
Wednesday 17th January 2018
3 Ball Scramble
Update from Captain
Can I ask you to put a note on the blog that we are
having a raffle at the Burn’s lunch on Wed 24th as we have some prizes which were not
claimed after the xmas cracker raffle in November, I would like this raffle to
be part of a donation to Dee Pye ( see report below) instead of to my charity, Dickie is arranging a
hamper as well so if anyone has any bottles/chocs left over from xmas please
bring them up for Dee,
perhaps we can do something else as well, any ideas!.
At
least get this on the blog asap. Barrie
Roll-Up Report 17/01/2018
Here we are again as the rain keeps falling on us, the
official Roll-Up was cancelled today as when the 6 early birds ventured out
only 9 holes were open but that soon changed and somehow, they managed to open
all 18 with only a few on temps so they carried on and played a Hassle.
15 late
starters decided as it was so wet to only play 15 holes as a 3-man Texas
scramble with 4 drives each and one sixth of the combined handicap.
The winning team who took all the spoils came in for a bit
of stick for having 13.83 shots over 15 holes but as their gross score was 60
only beaten by a 59 from the runners up I can’t say too much.

News from David Walgrove about the CST Cleaners ( Barrie & Dee) that we got so used to seeing around the place every morning, keeping the place spick & span.
Barrie Pye had a headache at 5pm on the 8th of Dec( think that was the exact
date ) and was dead in musgrove by 8am the next morning. He had a massive bleed
on the brain.
Wife, Dee
who David is trying hard to support was wrecked as you would imagine. Barrie
controlled all the paperwork ,bank accounts etc and died with all the
codes and passwords. It was tough to get it back on track. It has been a
financial crisis for Dee , as CST management are taking the services 'back in house.' Dee
is into her last 2 weeks there . Steve
has kindly kept Dee cleaning at Metaltech.
Some of the bar/
kitchen staff came to the funeral which was great.
He
was a firm life long West Bromwich Albion fan ,so if he's able to pull a
few strings up there ,they won't be relegated!!
Thanks for the interest shown by Members asking about Barrie.
How about the Burns Lunch on Wed 24th being a little 'Fund-Raiser' for Dee Captain ?
