Pavenham Park Visit

Pavenham Park

My guests from Pavenham Park in Bedfordshire arrived on Monday - earlier than expected which worked out well because the weather was glorious!

Linda and Anne played the front nine and the rest of the group arrived in time to join them for the back nine (and one couple then went on to complete the front nine too).

Bronwen came to join us for the back 9 which was great as it meant I could do a pasty run and bring sustenance to the golfers!

On Tuesday we played a Cape v Pavenham Park trophy competition!

The Trophy... the Wise Old Owl of Cape...

  

...only tiny but of great significance (like The Ashes!).

Six pairs played a Betterball Stableford - adding all the scores together for the final result.

Cape v Pavenham Park

First off for Cape were Jenny and Brian with Heather and Jill  (Jill joined us at China Fleet for the meal).

Then came Fran and Liz with Linda and Dave.

Finally Chris J and Bronwen played alongside Anne and Peter.

We had nearest the pin in two on the 12th and prizes for the best Pavenham Park pair and best Cape pair.

The scores were close!

Pavenham Park 116

Cape 117!

Well played Cape!  

Pavenham have won the Bedfordshire Handicap league 5 years in a row so they're keen contestants!

Anne and Peter won the best Pavenham Pair Prize.

Jenny and Brian won the best Cape Pair.

Linda won the Nearest the pin in two on 12th!

There was a lot of stopping to admire the views!

It was a lot of fun - thank you everyone for playing - and extra thanks to Brian for doing the pasty run as well as playing in my place for the first 11 holes.

The course was looking fabulous - thanks Mark and the team!

And of course - huge thanks to Pavenham for making it so far West!  

Well done everyone!


ps  We called off Wednesday's round because of the weather!
