Canadian Greensomes
7th September 2018
On a day when 12 of our finest were striving to beat Vivary, after we passed George & Peter bullying them on the 5th as George waved an apology to the group ahead....
….and John Chance was back to playing....
Captains Match Report vs Vivary 07/09/2018
We entertained
Vivary at home today on another sunny day, although we started off with a cool
breeze, but still great golfing weather.
We had John
Chance playing his first match for some while, he kindly stepped in after a withdrawal,
as John Macomish had an appointment in the afternoon to try and sort his back
out.
The course
was still in good shape after the Open on Wednesday, just a bit of growth on
the greens since then.
Our nearest
the pin was won by Dave Mugridge on the 16th.

..and even more action
CST were represented at Tiverton G C today. 70
pairs taking place, Fred Oliver with partner coming out on top in 26th
place, John Evans/Norman Markby in 43rd place., Phil Dewar and Ray
Gudge in 46th place, with Alan Chance and Stuart Pope taking 49th place.
Course was in fantastic condition but all found reading the greens very
tricky.
The most strange pairing today were Phil and Ray playing
with Michael Disney and partner who came second overall, Michael was a
neighbour farmer of Bob Barrow, and also a member of Tiverton GC at the same
time, and told Phil and Ray a few stories.. ….Michael and his partner Gerald are
planning to visit CST to play a round with Phil and Ray and will let Bob know
when. Tiverton is well a worth a visit if you have not played it.

Your correspondent had the
pleasure of playing with Toss Smith and watching Andrew Chambers’ (5) mighty
technique, ably assisted by Richard Agar (34)Today was a good day for scoring birdies as there only 4 each paying £4.20 per team.
Well done to the early Birds for letting Geoff & Vic play through as a 2-ball in a buggy - good etiquette and allowed Geoff to get home just in time for his budgie's funeral.
..not such good news for another buggy group, Brian & Bryan whose Club Buggy conked out.
Sid claimed his raffle prize from Wednesday, still a few more in the cabinet...
Many thanks to Trevor for donating his football winnings to my Boy Scout Kenya Trip - when he bet on Brighton finishing higher than Newcastle...all I need now is the cash from an un-named losing punter !
