This month we are off to Morning Melodies at The Mountain View on Wednesday 16th November. On Wednesday 14th December we will have presentation night and enjoy dinner together on the deck at Electra. Hopefully it will be a lovely warm evening. In January, we will begin the first of our monthly dinners after play, which are always fun and well attended. Play times on Tuesday and Saturday are 9.30 until 11.30. Please arrive at 9.20am. Play on Wednesday is at 1.00pm - arrive at 12.50. During summer, Wednesday play starts at 5.00pm.


Competition
Congratulations to Richard Parks, winner of the club championship, and to runner-up John van der Touw. Richard played very well, winning all his games against some tough competition. Our sponsor Ryman probided the entrants with show bags, and the winners with drink flasks, much appreciated.
