    Good to see your handicap is coming down Cap’n. I had another poor round yesterday so the way it’s going we’ll be close to similar handicaps come late October. I played off 15 yesterday (back blue markers so high adjustment) but still couldn’t play to it. ????

    Now on 13.2…out .6 in the last 2 games πŸ˜›

    Another top day for the PJ memorial game. No pissing rain, so this time he threw a curve ball and decided to have us melt in the heat! Sneaky bastard looking down on us, the only pissing would be his laughter.

    8 L4G members and 4 visitors took the fairways of Castle Hill Country Club for this years event. The day started around 9.30am for some, who ventured to Schmucks wonderful cafe (Marcellinos) for a pre game Coffee and a scrumptious Bacon/Sausage & Egg Roll. If you haven’t been there…in the words of Molly Meldrum…do yourself a favour!

    As per usual we were joined by Mrs Chook Norris (Chris) for the day, which started with the traditional remembrance ceremony and downing of the shot of either Jim Beam, Butterscotch Schnapps or Port.

    Chris followed the groups in her own flow through ventilated cart, graciously suppled by CHCC. Play got underway and many of the very tall trees on the course felt our wrath πŸ™‚ In the end there were two players slugging it out for the trophy, Snorkelguru coming through for the win by the solitary point, shooting 2 over par on the 2nd nine holes.

    Following the game we all headed back to Schmucks cafe for a magnificent feast of Pizza, Pasta, Schnitzel & Hot Chips. Wine was flowing courtesy of Birdie Killer and Commish, along with bottles donated by Schmucks mate Dave…these went out to the top 3 place getters.

    So, the results for the day:

    Winner Snorkelguru 39pts
    Zookeeper 38pts
    Barenski 33pts
    Birdie Killer 30pts
    Peppas 29pts
    Commish 28pts
    Schmuck 28pts
    David V 27pts
    Nilesh S 23pts
    Jeff F 20pts
    Greywolfe 19pts
    Savin P 15pts

    Snorkel must have contacts at Golflink after he blew out by .1 to 12.7 after his 39 points…and just to please Francie, I lost .2 to drop to 12.6 after shooting my 33points…joke!!!!

    A few thank yous: Thank you to all who turned up to play this annual event. Currently we are sitting at $600 for Beyond Blue. Thank you to Schmuck, Dave V and Jeff F for the game today, very much enjoyable playing in this group. I don’t think I can remember ever being that shagged after a game of golf. Thank you to Chris for taking the time to watch us chop it around the course and for supplying yet another outstanding cake to celebrate PJ’s birthday.

    My biggest thanks are reserved for Schmuck and his staff at Marcellinos…one of whom stayed back after her shift to assist with the food preparation and refused to be compensated for it. It was a very generous gesture and didn’t go un-noticed.
    Hope to see you at the next PJ game on September 18 2024.

    Zoo is in. We will both be 3 week post surgery and will definitely be needing a cart. By normal account, I gather you mean the WRP one?

    Hi Everyone
    Hope your golfing has been great and not washed out too often.

    I just wanted to check which charity we decided to donate too as I can’t recall and wanted to let Paul’s mum know.

    Have a great day

    x

    Hi Chris…and all,

    Sorry I missed this…the end of last year was a blur for me, tied up in sorting out dad’s estate and clearing out his unit. I must admit I had overlooked the payment to charity.

    The original PJ donation page was not able to be accessed but it has been done, $685.00 to Beyond Blue, in memory of PJ.

    Cheers
    Barenski xx

    Well finally, after 3 attempts, the inorg…inargr…the first Live4Golf Nationals have at last been completed. Thank you to all who took part, especially our new players. I hope you enjoyed the experience…it’s more than just about the games of golf. Most of us see each other just this once a year and, to me anyway, it’s like a yearly family reunion…3 years in this case.

    Congratulations to all the winners of the various days and big congrats to our National Champion Geoff A (you need to come up with a better handle!). A very consistent performance…one question begs asking though…representing QLD in SOO when you are originally from NSW???? πŸ˜›

    The weather gods weren’t exactly kind to us, like most of the year really, but getting 5 of the 6 days in was probably better than most expected. For what it’s worth Cypress Lakes (very appropriately named) should not have been open for play, that first 9 was ridiculous.

    I was massively disappointed that we were unable to play “my home track”, Elanora. After years of planning we got soooo close but, whilst it would have been better than most, I wanted you all to experience it at its near best. That would not have been the case if we had played on Monday. I did however manage to snag Francie a game there Tuesday afternoon after our Terrey Hills round. No carts so we took pull buggies, quite hard work after 18 holes earlier. Ok Snorkelguru, I have to agree that ECC would be a tougher walk than Terrey Hills πŸ˜› We got 5 holes in before the lightning siren went off…20 mins later we were back on course and we had the place to ourselves, not one other player was sighted for the rest of our 13 holes!

    The Brass Yacht Challenge was run for the first time in 3 years and in the end it was a convincing win to myself, 121pts to 100pts…poor Francie just couldn’t string a round together. I truly felt sorry for him, nobody deserves such a trouncing! πŸ˜› Mind you, by this time next year the tables could well and truly be turned after I lost .4 over the weekend to drop to 13 and Francie has gone from starting at 8.5 to 10.5! We’ll be pretty even I think.

    I would like to send a massive thanks to our organising team, Goldy, Weeti, Piggy and fearless leader, Madam. Unfortunately I wasn’t able to give great assistance in the couple of weeks leading up to the Nationals so I really appreciate their efforts to make this event a success. As was announced at the dinner on Saturday night, Madam will be stepping away from setting up this event after 2023 in the ACT. Whilst it will be a massive loss for us, it is totally understandable that priorities have take place. Madam has worked his butt of since our first event back in 2012, I’m pretty sure he had a full head of hair then. His efforts over that time have not gone unnoticed an I’m confident that the state groups can keep the L4G Nationals running well into the future

    Thank you Mike!

    Hopefully everyone had a good uneventful run home…I just wait right here πŸ˜‰ …and arrived safely.

    See ya all in the ACT 2023!

    Cheers
