Last night was the annual Mens Black Tie Dinner at our club.
Guest speaker was Gordon Sherry, winner of the Amateur Championship in 1995, and who played in the Walker Cup, the Open and the Masters.
A really good after dinner speaker, was on stage for a full hour, many stories about Bob Torrance, about playing in the Open alongside Tom Watson and Jack Nicklaus, and his experience of playing at Augusta with Fred Couples. Very entertaining, very funny and generally speaking an approachable, friendly individual.
To top of the evening he did the charity auction. When the auction items had been purchased he proceeded to auction two four balls (3 guests playing with him) at Loch Lomond, so as well as raising an additional 1200 pounds for the charity effort, I am 200 quid poorer but have the opportunity to play at Loch Lomond with Gordon Sherry.
