Ladies VS Senior Gentlemen

Today the annual match between the ladies and the senior gentlemen was played. The weather went from rain to sunshine to rain, but that did not manage to dampen the spirits. Above is a photo of a lovely rainbow at the 15th.

The matches were all quite close, but the senior gentlemen managed to win by 5 1/2 to 2 1/2. Liz Fertacz the Lady Captain is presenting the cup to David Shepherd.

A highly amused audience.

Everybody enjoyed a lovely meal, especially the

chocolat gateau. Mary needed to restore her

energy after playing as the only lady back marker.
