VALENTINES TEXAS SCRAMBLE & PLAY YOUR CARDS RIGHT!
Saturday was our Valentines Texas Scramble which was followed by a wonderful meal then we were treated to another of David's entertaining nights! I will get to the entertainment later but first of all the results of the Texas Scramble. The turn out was excellent with 32 players taking part and we were delighted to be able to play to the 'big greens'! The winning score was from the team of Iain Butchart, Ian Clark, Edith Ralston and junior member Emily Aird (photo above)with a fantastic score of 55.875! In second place with a score of 59.125 was Chris Brand, Jack Scott, Rhona McGeoghegan and Mark Truswell (photo below, Rhona and Mark were unable to stay for prizegiving). Well done to both teams and a big thank you to Mixed Convenors Marion and Iain.

The attendance then rose in numbers to enjoy a fantastic a la carte meal which was closely followed by the main show, 'Play your Cards Right' hosted by our very own 'Brucie' David Norman. David certainly put a lot of effort into making the night a huge sucess. He had a televised intro which was brilliant, his very own 'Dollie Dealer' who was Lady Captain Jane Taylor and he made sure all who attended, young and old, were involved in the game. It was great fun. Well done David!! Also a huge thank you to Peter Howell who was the main sponsor on the night and gave away a massive 6 meals for two with wine at the Lands of Loyal!!


It is always great to see so many members and family staying on to enjoy the entertainment and enjoy the social side of what is indeed a friendly place to play golf!

Below is some photos of the night, bearing in mind it was a Valentines I couldn't resist the heart frame!
