Bad, badder, Brian!

It was a hot one..... and a staggering 19 mongrels turned up to play... foolish some might say but it was after all the 1st of April !!! Sadly, only 18 finished as the heat got to one unfortunate mutt and he staggered off for an early beer. A word of warning.... you must drink a lot of water when playing in these temperatures but be ultra careful buying water on the course. The drinks hut operatives are playing games with the bottles of water... using old ones, filling them with tap water (if you are lucky!!) and selling as new !!! Drinking that water will guarantee an intimate relationship with your favourite 'thrown' back at your kennel !!!

To the golf.... my mate Brian once again came to the rescue and saved others from the honour of cuddling the Doo doo trophy. Michael Carey only play 11 holes before he opted for an early beer but still managed 13 points where Brian, 'ploughed' on manfully to the end but accumulating only 12 points. Curly Whurly Freeman collected 20 points but once again managed to get nearest the pin on the 8th..... 2nd week running!!! Just as well as he invariably forgets to bring a new ball for the pot and so uses the 'nearest the pin' as compensation !!! At the other end of the field we had 5 people on 29 nine points vying for the balls .... and after a serious amount of 'count backing'..... I worked out the following results.

OK lost on count back to Margaret who lost on count back to Douglas who lost on count back to Lydia who came 3rd who lost on count back to Teb who came 2nd !!!! You miserable pooches..... try to spread the points out next time so that I can have a peaceful beer when I get to the club house !!!! And Leader of the Pack this week is Holger with 33 points. Well done. Handicap adjustments only affect Brian.
Next week we will once again do Kurmitola at the usual time and this will be followed by the Dogs dinner at Gus and Vivien's kennel. Incidentally, Tuesday 11th April is Eid-e-Milad-un-Nabi.... which to you and I means it is a Public Holiday. For me this is an excuse to play Savar... followed by beer and pizza en route home !! if anyone wishes to join me let me know.
