Chuckup – Not this week

Ashes – Not enough Anzacs – Lions 3 up

HAPPY/UNHAPPY – Pleased to win it but not so pleased with the level of errors involved in getting there.  Looked fairly solid to me – Congratulations !!

Another one of those clear blue belting hot strength sapping dehydrating summer days that we would miss if they didn’t happen as they so characterise mid-summer Australian golf.  The course was generally in good condition but the iconic par 5 4^th fairway was closed and so abbreviated to a short par 3, and the following par 3 5^th was closed completely and the 90m pitching green brought into play as the 19^th.  Still unique as the only course we play where every direction you look there are high rise buildings.

Welcome back Mulligan for his first game of the season – occasional flashes of brilliance!!

Yours truly leaves the old start time of 12:30 from the Coast 2 years ago on the 2025 calendar when updating it and doesn’t join the game until hole 8.  If we didn’t have too many trophies already, we need another one for sheer incompetence!!

Our winner drops a 37 off a better handicap and slips a little.  Also slipping is our current leader of both tournaments who drops a 39, other handicaps remain the same.
