It gets more competitive every year, as our seniors keep surviving but the young whippersnappers (minimum age 55) keep adding to the numbers! Maybe we need a super- seniors division adding for those over 70 who can still walk? This week concluded a week with 3 shotgun starts, 264 players on Friday, Tuesday and Friday.
Of the 80 players, just 12 of them did NOT qualifying for the seniors. Much brighter weather than the forecast, Thanks to Peter Reeves for collecting the 2 euros this week. Sandy and Dorothy Simpson have sponsored this competition since it’s inception, and I am sure they are following events closely from their new home in Australia.

Sunday morning the clocks went back (have you done it?) but winter starts with the sun going down early.

Hundreds of mature trees on the course, but Barry Answer was stymied by the only one that had a string holding it up? So he got a free drop………..

We have an away day to Valle del Este on Monday, bus departing Al Kasar at 08.30 – arrive in good time. Try to look like a team on the day with the new blue society shirts.
Next week is the November Apollo Air individual stableford.
