Kevin’s not over the hill, he’s on top of the world…………………….
.
This was the 4th Apollo Air of 2018, and last year’s front runner for most of the year, Kevin Smith, came out on top. This weekend is Kevin’s 60th birthday, so you are not over the hill when you reach that milestone!
54 players this week and again the starter was the lovely Tanya Seckington.

usually when people get old they shrink, but Kev seems to have reversed the process – last week he was taller than Tony Andrews, this week taller than John Collins………….
.
Pat won the ladies……………..
.
With Ken and Alicia away on their cruise, new committee member John Collins joined the presentation team…………………….
.
4 qualifiers for the annual trophy completed, and Tony Andrews has hit the front, just ahead of Shaun Cairney and Phil Cooke. Only 5 scores needed this year, so still 8 more chances to get your best 5 scores in.
.
the course is now greening up, and the greens staff are doing an excellent job…………….
.
On Monday we have the St George’s Day stableford, followed by a team competition (all 4 scores to count) next Friday.
.
And to celebrate Kev’s birthday here are a few birthday jokes……………..
.
Forget about the past, you can’t change it.
Forget about the future, you can’t predict it.
Forget about the present, I didn’t get you one.
.
The old lady was being interviewed by reporters on the occasion of her 110th birthday. “What do you think is the reason for your long life?” they asked her. “Oh,” she replied, “I suppose it’s because I was born such a long time ago.”
.
It’s a hot day– the security guard is patrolling the apartments in Condado de Alhama when he sees a little old man sitting in a rocking chair on the patio. So he stops and says to the little old man, “You look as if you don’t have a care in the world! What’s your formula for a long and happy life?”
And the little old man says, “Well, I smoke six packs of cigarettes a day, I drink a a bottle of whisky every two days and six cases of beer a week. I never wash and I go out to the Clover every night; I don’t get to bed until four in the morning.”
And the guy says, “Wow, that’s just great. How old are you?”
And the little man says, “Twenty-two.”
