Thanks for the game Fundy and Neil.....

[rickg]

Played Steve's place today with him and Neil (Neil20). I played with Neil at the Grove in the Golf Monthly Powerplay,he's a really nice guy.

Lovely day...a bit windy. We played American Stableford (6 points per hole with the scoring either 4-2-0, 3-3-0, 2-2-2, or 4-1-1) - lowest score gets reduced to zero after each hole to keep the score tidy- it's a great format for 3 players.
Fundy stated his intentions by blasting a hybrid off the first tee around 250 leaving him an 8 iron into the opening par 5!!!!

We had a great laugh with some good banter and some good golf....I managed a 2 over gross front nine courtesy of a couple of long putts to hold a healthy lead going into the back nine. Just as well, as I had a couple of dodgy holes on the back nine.

Final score was 21-12-0 with Neil adopting the new forum name, Neil Zero!

The course was in great nick for the time of year and Steve and Neil were great company.

Crisp fivers were handed over in the bar, (thanks guys! ), and a sausage bap and chips was washed down with a well earned pint of the Amber nectar.

Hoping to hold a return match at my place soon.

Thanks again guys.....

...cheeky beggar!!
I actually started work at 4 am this morning thanks to a Price Waterhouse Cooper audit. Was able to make a 12 o clock tee off with Steve and Neil.
Might look at doing a 4 am start on a regular basis so I can play in the afternoon. Would probably choose a Friday though...

Hopefully me and Pieman will put him off suitably tomorrow with heavy banter .... failing that I'll hand over the fiver I've already prepared

Pleasure as always Rick, great to have you over even if you're golf was a bit tidy to nick the money
