We thought we were doing Ok, managing Sweetie's 40 shots, but as we waited on 6th, a smirking Oliver Twist asked how we did on 5th. " 2 Pars and 6 points" we replied...." Oh, we only had 8 Points there ! - he replied. Tony Andrews, off 27 had reached the green in 3 nice swishes of the club to then find the bottom of the cup with his 4th. They did the Maths and a Birdie on Par 5 with 2 shots , that'll be 5 Points thank you- outrageous.

Meantime in the Summer Knockout the Semi-Final line up was completed. Picture above shows the Gardener / Hoe pairing with Billy & Keith - the former being 1 Up as they played 14th. We heard the cheer as Billy sunk his putt to draw the match back to level, but worse was to come for the confident Mike & Derek. Keith's Drive on 15th was on Fairway and halfway up the Hill. 2nd Shot was just short of Green. Derek was in bunker for 2 but he was never going to get the chance to play in the sand-pit. Keith was receiving a shot on the hole - but chipped in for a 3 ( nett 2 effectively) so Derek sulked for a while, built a scale model of Notre-Dame and then re-joined the 4-ball on 16th. Billy & Keith held onto lead to the end and finished 1 Up.

They now play in the battle of the Left Handers against Asquith / Brent in the coming weeks.

Only thing missing in the picture is The Cup
