The Growling Swan 01/08
Mike Johns takes on all to be successful at Emerald.
Twenty golfers (both male and female) set out to take on Emerald Golf Course, with B1150 all-inclusive I am surprised that we did not get a larger crew. On all reports the course was in Tip Top condition. We played from the front Tees with the greens playing true. Great value for a very good course.
Farewells to Lindsay Slender, who is taking his family back to the U.K. On a sad note its unfortunate Gary Monley is heading back to Australia, his health has gone downhill over the past couple of weeks. We all wish you well Gary and would love to see you again!!!!!!!!!!!
Our Upcoming games are as follows; Thursday we travel to Greenwood, the following Monday sees us heading to Big Navy for “Tony Olcorn Memorial Day” we play Ambrose random draw. The following Thursday has us heading to Crystal Bay.rse.

Alex Field once again let our resident charity hound D-For off the chain to collect for the needy in Pattaya. Golfers and Punters at the Swan should be commended for the way they support D-For and of course the needy in Pattaya.
The GS is a friendly golf outlet and caters for and encourages all golfers male and female to have a hit at any of our weekly outings. We generally play Mondays and Thursdays at one of the many fine golf courses in and around Pattaya. Please contact Peter Grey if you are interested on 0861 503086.
Bowls
The Growling Swan also caters to the bowls enthusiasts. Bus transport departs the GS on Sundays at 10am for open grass bowling at The Retreat. The cost including return bus transport, bowling fees and a hot lunch is less than 400 baht so great value for a day out.
