PINEHURST - FRIDAY 21ST OCTOBER

Nine pairs competed in Friday's Pinehurst competition in what turned out to be a pleasantly mild morning. Everyone seemed to enjoy and not get too confused with the format! The runners up were Gill Tissell and Meriel Walker with 72 on count back from Sheila Bruce and Angela Rooney. I am rather embarrassed to say that the winners with a score of 70 were myself (Sue Waddell) and Elaine Robson. 

Thanks to Past Captain, Gill Tissell for taking the photo!


Nature note: Gill Tissell spotted this colourful mushroom on Rosemount earlier in the week. The Fly agaric is the home of fairies and magical creatures and a lover of birch woodland, where it helps trees by transferring nutrients into their roots, but if eaten can cause hallucinations and psychotic reactions. So if approaching ladies, please approach with extreme care!!

The enchanting Fly agaric!
