MESSAGE FROM OUR LADY CAPTAIN

Happy Easter Ladies

Well we managed 6 holes yesterday to get the season under way. It rained for us for the whole 6 but we were cheery throughout despite the soggy breeks & rain hat hair!! We toasted the season with a wee prosecco in the crowded locker room & a piece of tablet made by the lovely Iris, then filled the trophy with more prosecco after the Vice Captain, Michelle McKay grudgingly presented it to yours truly in the clubhouse after the game. Great fun & good banter. The score was 2-1 to the Lady Captain's team but everyone that played was a winner! Well done ladies. 

Next Saturday 2 April is the First Fling. It's a fun game & our way of kicking off the Ladies season. All are welcome & again we play in teams. If you wish to play please book in asap via the online booking system as unused times are opened up to other sections mid week.

So far we have 2 ladies teams for the quiz & those that are golfing & quizzing are staying for tea after golf. There is still space for a few teams, non members are welcome! Phone the bar or the office to enter before Saturday.

Have a great season Ladies & I look forward to seeing you all at the Golf Club.

HOW POSH ARE WE?


We had our pre- season get together on Wednesday evening and combined the event with a wee celebration of Ann Arnold's 80th birthday.  Most of us hadn't seen Ann since she celebrated her birthday in the Canaries - she thought we would forget all about it!

Captain Alison and her Vice Michelle had prepared a tasting test for us.  We had to try three varieties of Prosecco and various nibbles and rate them in order of preference.  It will be no surprise to any of us that we didn't rate the most expensive Prosecco. We won't waste our hard earned cash in future. You will see us all in Aldi's this weekend.

Michelle announced the winners of the Winter League who are all now hot footing it  down to buy the cheap Prosecco with their winnings.

A great evening Alison. Looking forward to Saturday and our Opening Day.

WINTER WALK ON MURTHLY ESTATE


This year our Winter Walk took us to Murthly Estate. We were lucky with the weather and managed to get round dry. Our 6 mile route took us round the outskirts of the Estate through Kingswood across the Perth to Inverness railway line and down to the river bank which we followed back in to the main drive of the Estate. We had a slight detour up to the Chapel which has a family burial plot and the most beautiful bells which we were lucky to hear chime at mid day.

Numbers were down this year. There should have been eight of us but unfortunately Moira was injured. She did however meet us at the end of the walk and joined us for lunch at Bankfoot Visitor Centre.

A great morning Ladies. Thanks to everyone who turned up and the rest of you put it in your diary for next year.
