Results – Palm Garden Golf Resort – 29th April 2013

Report

A very enjoyable day was had by all on this beautiful, and very well maintained course. The fairways were in excellent condition and the rolling greens were very true, as always. 

4 Full flights , with Mike Han joining the 4 th flight,to make a 5 ball. Great having Mike back with the LCs , and many thanks for his help in arranging the game and for paying for the beers. Much appreciated.


The birthday weekend…. Ted on Sunday, and Hans and Alan on Monday. Hans very generously paid for lunch and Alan provided 4 sleeve of balls. Thank you both and happy birthday. No singing like at Ted’s … shame. 


The winners of the sleeves. 

Lowest Gross Geoff Mclaws, 84

1 st place Andrew Robinson

5 th place ocb( from Ray Funnell) Iain Wise

9 th place Mathew Katakis


The winner on the day, (with his high handicap) was Andrew Robinson with 94 for 42 points. Cut only 6. Andrew is now away for the next 3 weeks.  Have a safe trip.  Even using the bonus points I could not separate Kevin Wiggins, 87, for 39  and Bernard Rohman 90, 39 , so a convenor decision, cut them both by 1 …!!  Gordon escaped the cut because of less bonus points.

Results of Tasik Puteri Game 11th October 2011

Cannons all.
19 LC’s assembled at TP as the heavens opened forcing a 45-minute delay. Play got underway under a grey sky with light rain still falling but this had cleared by mid way through the front 9 and thereafter it was fine weather. We played the Puteri & Tasik 9’s, which were in fair condition. The Puteri greens had been recently scarified and were consequently a little slow but the Tasik greens were good and fairly quick.
Yours truly was the winner with 39 points (corrected from 38 due to scoring against an incorrect handicap) and the R/U with 36 points was Ted Parslow. The lowest gross was 83 by Ted and the most golf was played by Alan Holgate with 121. I am cut 4 strokes and Ted 1 stroke. The full results and your adjusted handicaps can be found on the attachment.
M&M was taken at the ever-reliable Equatorial Restoran where 15 of us enjoyed some excellent grub washed down with numerous cold ones. The 4 that didn’t make it missed out not only on a first class lunch but also on the generosity of Raymond Keys who, having reached 60 the day we returned from Batam, decided to postpone celebrations till yesterday and picked up the entire bill. Thank you and Happy Birthday Raymond. 



Consequently there was a carry over of RM337 to the kitty, which now stands at RM1042. Some suggestions have been received as to what use to put this to and these will be borne in mind.
During the lunch it was agreed that Loose Cannons should have an official Shirt. Following yesterdays flier 26 LC’s have already placed orders and an order will be placed with Pin High soon and the shirts should be available about 3 weeks later. I will keep you posted.

The only hiccup was waiting for someone named “Pigstaff”to turn up! Well that’s what it sounded like when Andrew was sniffling down the phone to me the names at 6am this morning. Well he didn’t turn up anyway and it wasn’t until the 3rd hole that I worked out it was “Dickstaff” he was saying.

Departed restaurant around 2.20pm
