Fantasy League - Newsletter 2

I think we had better watch out as the Far East conglomerate of Rob Son and Han Sen have plans to turn our course into paddy fields to grow their rice. I therefore must praise Inspector Regan and Dominic for resisting and letting us play the Wisbey Cup on Senior Captains Drive In day. Inevitably Tommy Fleetwood look-a-like Dennis won – well done – the handicap police are watching.

​

​Other prizes went to the captain, Steve Abbott, Dave Skinner, and Richard Stephenson as well as nearest the pin and longest drive prizes to Alan Appleby, Keith Duggan, and Ivan North. The usual convivial lunch followed in which we launched Graham’s year with some humour and shared a bit of sadness as our friend Tony Long was no longer with us. At least we are underway and, on the QT, Kevin will shortly be stocking Warley Waders to aid stability whilst playing.
 

Our first competition was, in fact, a 4 ball stableford that became a 3 ball stableford as we discovered who had been a boy scout when they were boys. It had been pouring for weeks so some of remembered be prepared and brought a light bag and clubs to carry. In fact Dave Skinner had no clubs at all as his had been nicked so winning on Monday was a result. See ebay for a free to collect offer of the old ones; purchaser to buy two Skinny Lattes.

The competition produced incredible scores (remember this column does not do descriptions of amazing or unbelievable) of a 97 points and a 96 points of a 2 from 3 score. Winners were Razor Sharp (on that day at least), Silver Fox Vander, and the Headmaster – well played indeed.

Conversations over the last few weeks have centred on just what seniors do when they can’t play golf. It turns out that Dave Cormack spent several nights in bed with a pig called Betsy Blue Eyes  but has ditched her for  a Fair Lady and it is all with Barbara’s approval. Others have been further afield and if you watch closely how he carries his clubs with a light stoop you will see Webster Gordon has had an encounter with the Maasai Warriors during his January trip to the South of Africa. He learnt tracking skills there and now knows whether or not there are antelopes to be found on our course. He is a main instigator of our pick, wipe, and place anywhere winter rules but fellow players are advised not to shake hands with Gordon until he has reached the changing rooms. Meantime Boy George, our immediate past captain managed to trip up a kerb before it even started snowing. He is recovering and in good spirits in part due to the cannulated screw he has been given by the NHS. We will see him in the club soon and he is forming a group of Hippoteers as more of our numbers are operated on. (After a sniff Gordon reports there are no Hippoteers on the course but they may be in the lake.)
 
Lastly, the first league table is now available. The big favourite Quentin has scored well so the many teams that have picked him are near the top. Early leaders are the Brians Wright and Wilkins both with their second teams whilst, because of his W, Mr Wright is also last.






NB the Jack Wisbey Cup 'non fake' prize awards pictures are on  the Captains Drive in Page.
NNB The table below is shown split into two parts for no other reason than your incompetent webmaster could not get it to look readable as one table!   (Webmaster's comment).
