Sunday 6^th August

St Andrews

12 players for today at St Andrews not bad for the early start only 3 people did not turn up or cancelled,one had a good reason he was already to go but felt some stomach pains, and went to the hospital to have it checked out,It was gall stones and they operated straight away, best wishes for a speedy recovery to Christer Dolk. We played a rainbow today 6 off each of the Red, White & Yellow tees, which is a popular way to play this course. The course it’s self was in good condition even though they had recently spiked the greens again. This did not seem to stop the 1^st group as they took all the prizes, Way out in front was Steve Coghlan who off his shortly to be revised hcp 38 shot 45 pts , Followed by playing partner Fred Birch with 43 pts.& and fellow player Gary Smedley with 40 pts. The Donkey in the next group struggled all the way      round but managed 2 pars on the last 2 holes to wipe the smile off Stanley’s face and to please Sim with 36 pts Stan after a very good start crumbled at the end.
