Happy New Year and hopefully 2019 will be better than 2018.
Christmas is a busy time for most people with sales, family visits, the jobs that were put to one side to be dealt with over the holidays, right, But for others its time to chill out either snoozing, walking, golf, pitch & putt etc. Mixed numbers attending the after Christmas Fourballs but the weekend was business as usual with a very respectable crowd on Saturday afternoon and Sunday morning. Saturday saw Mrs Curtin’s Boys teaming up with John Dineen to take the nett with 89 while Mick O’Leary, Sheila O’Leary and Catherine O’Keeffe also on 89 took the gross with 10 under. Sunday morning Dan Shine and J P Murphy ran away with the nett on 58 points which was superb shooting at 11 under for a nine and an eleven handicappers. Pat Mnoore and Val O’Leary were drawn together for the second day running and took the gross with 9 under. on Saturday for the 2nd time this year Pat got so excited when Val chipped in on the 17th that the denture went flying. Frank suggested he should get a tube of Fixodent to stop a recurrence. Sunday afternoon Billy Fitton and Gretchen Ahern did the honours for the nett while Rick O’Mahony and John Dineen were the gross winners.
The Captains Day is on Saturday next 5th Jan at 1.00 and all Members are asked to support and members most guests are welcome.
