Winter Eclectic 5 & WLS 8

Groves finds the Groove!

Saturday brought clear skies and cool temperatures but this did not deter the players at Reay who were out in force to compete in round 5 of the Winter Eclectic.

Taking the spoils on the day with a nett 65 was club president Fred Groves who has found his groove again after an indifferent winter season to date. Groves is well known for his wizardry around the greens and this was in evidence following a spectacular outward half of 33 which included birdies at the 3rd and 6th holes. A freshening wind made life a little more difficult on the inward 9, but he still managed to cover the half in 39 to give him a gross 72, the lowest of the day.

Joke of the Week - Laffs Guaranteed

Having both N/R'd in the Seniors Open Betty and Agnes are standing outside the Clubhouse, having a smoke, when it starts to rain. Betty reaches into her pocket and pulls out a condom, cuts off the end, puts it over her cigarette, and continues smoking.

O Macaco's World Matchplay Update

Right sportsfans - couldn't find a frog to lick so I had to settle for a sook on one of bertie's liquorice allsorts!  And the result is a mixed bag of wee first round bets for your consideration...

Last Week:  What a shocker.  In the U S of A, Kevin Na na na na na na na na na na na na managed to avoid the cut and nothing more. 

Winter Eclectic Round 4

Saturday saw six brave souls take to the fairways in Arctic conditions to compete in the fourth round of the Winter Eclectic at Reay. The early morning blue skies and bright conditions lulled players in to a false sense of security and soon gave way to a series of squally snow showers which made good scoring tricky.

Last Week...
And the Oscar nominations in the category of "most disappointing performance by something French".....my insipid green Peugeot 407 wobbling up and down the A9 like a badly set blancmange.........French referee Romain Poite disallowing a Scottish try without going to video replay...........JB Gonnett for his pitiful performance in Dubai...oh hang on JP DQ'd on a technicality - he never made it to the weekend!!!!!

February Medal

The recent February Medal at Reay golf club was played in mainly dry and bright conditions with players hampered slightly by a tricky breeze.  Showing some mercurial form to take the top spot was Donald Mowat with a fine round of nett 66.
