    -6 in par. Could have been worse and could have been better. Two birdies in the final three holes will bring me back this weekend.

    Braved the Antarctic conditions on the weekend. Wind was up rain was coming in sideways but I managed to achieve something that I had never done before on my home course – even when I used to be able to play. I pared all 6 of the par 3’s on the course. Never been a strong part of my game but managed it in the wind and rain.

    Anyway ended up with 35 points and struck the ball well, just had problems with distance control with anything from under a 100m in. Also major issue with my short game with no par saves when I missed the green from 60m out which happened on more than one occasion.

    A counter on my Hçap so down to 11.7. Still a long way to go but heading in the right direction.

    I take it that this where I tell you all about how I played.
    as usual, Stab at Warra today, but today it was part of Tournament Week.

    as usual, played crap, heaps of 1-point holes, too many wipes, five 1-putts but also two 3-putts. 14/12: 26

    Highlight of the day was a birdie on the 18th. At halfway through the day (we were the last of the morning field), no-one else had even got their name on the NTP. At about 1m, there is doubt whether I’ll keep it.

    Still, I’m sure it’s just great to play

    I’ve heard playing is fun…

    It seems that I won that NTP – a Callaway glove. After coming 141th in a field of 155, I am just happy to walk away with something from the day.
    The glove will probably be too small so I might have to swap it over to something more useful.

    Quarter final of match play knockout today.
    Equal handicaps (even though he smacks the ball 100m longer than me). It was close all the way, mostly alternating between me being one up and square.
    I lost on 15 to go one down, halved 16, then lost on 17. 2&1

    Despite the warmth, it was very pleasant out there and very sociable.

    I didn’t play today, but I went up at Beacy this morning for a meeting, I had to explain to a few of the younger members why they were wrong and needed to change what they wanted to do so it could be done my way. After watching it drizzle for a couple of hours, meanwhile getting into shouts with four other members drinking Irish coffees, I went home when it was my turn for a shout and needing to use the little boys room, all without playing.
    I had to stop twice on the way home for a pit stop.
