Excellent weather and a drying course made for a good morning’s golf enjoyed by all. The greens were in good condition but the President’s 9 were much slower than the Alam Shah 9. Then followed by a very enjoyable lunch, where we also celebrated Erol’s 250 th game with the LCs, and he very generously paid for the beer. Thank you.
The winner was Bernard Romahn with an excellent round of 80 for 46 points. Cut only 10 lah….Second on count back, from Iain Wise was Tony Morris with 88 for 41 points. Cut 1…

15 Loose Cannons turned up for the annual revelry at the Coliseum Cafe to celebrate Xmas. Pre-drinks in the Coliseum Bar were partaken, then we all quickly adjourned to the back dining room, tactfully placed behind some dark screens to continue the festivities. Lunch comprised prawn cocktail, “Desperate Dan” style steak pie with mash potatoes then apple pie and ice cream … all washed down with copious quantities of wine.
Entertainment was provided by each LC member who took turns to recite stories or jokes or songs. Xmas hats, poppers and fake snow was in abundance to add to the festive atmosphere. All in all a predictable but enjoyable event and many thanks to Andrew Robinson for making the necessary arrangements.
Based on the newly instigated USGA handicaps within the society and the effective online system for calculating this Allan McNicoll was proudly presented with a prize for the “Most Improved ” Golfer for 2013. This was based on scores from 1st March 2013 till December – next year we can calculate this on a full year basis and we will have another exciting prize for this most coveted award.
A few photos and video below sadly demonstrate the child-like behaviour by all of the Loose Cannons attendees at the Xmas lunch …..
The results for the recent poll regarding the use of USGA handicaps are summarised below. The majority of players (81%) have voted for the use of USGA handicaps for ALL games. So starting 1st January 2014 Loose Cannons will be adopting the use of players’ official USGA handicaps for all Loose Cannons games. So no more cuts for the winner and runner up as a win should be reflected in a cut in the handicap via the online USGA system we now use.
