Coronation Foursomes and beyond

Coronation Foursomes

8th June saw just four pairs playing the this competition.


Conditions were fairly good and the ball is beginning to run on the dry fairways.

Eyeing up the 12th

Our winners and going on to the regional competition were Lyn and Sue D with 37 points.

Unfortunately Sue S had not been allowed to play as her handicap has crept up just above the handicap limit. It was really disappointing because it would have been fabulous for her and Lyn to defend their crown from last year's visit to St Andrews. 

However, Lyn and Sue D will carry the Cape flag onwards.

In second were Lindsay and myself with 35 points.

Well played all!

Weymouth with the Vets

The following day 5 of us set off for Weymouth to play in the Cornwall Vets match against Dorset.



We were fortunate with lovely weather and enjoyed a stroll along by the beach...


...and we played the next day. The course was beautiful and in fantastic condition; the greens were large, probably twice the speed of ours and true. The matches were very close, most finishing on the 18th. 
Cornwall lost 5 - 2. It was a fabulous day and we had a superb meal afterwards.

 Altogether a lovely trip!

On the way home we stopped briefly for Fran to take a picture of the coast and Chesil Bank. 

What a view!
