We had a super day at our Par-Tee @ The Island entertaining 21 of our former lady members (apologies were received from another 20+ members/former members who were disappointed they couldn't make it).
Thanks to our ladies who delved to the back of their cupboards to find 'proper china' teacups for our afternoon tea. Although the cups had to be re-filled on a regular basis cos 'they're not as big as mugs !'
There was a fair bit of nattering going on as our ladies served up the sandwiches (thanks Paul), tasty tit-bits (thanks to our lady bakers) and tea/coffee. Some old photographs were stirring memories from years ago. After we had our fill, we headed out to the putting green to play our 'Solheim Cup'.
The highlight of the target golf was Sheena's hole-in-one - the only one of the afternoon ! Fiona had the best score on the crazy golf with 8 shots to complete the course, with Betty Robertson a close 2nd (she hasn't lost her touch !). No-one knew whether they were playing for Europe or USA in the putting, but I'm glad to say Europe won both games - is that an omen for the real thing in Sept ?!?
Everyone said how much they had enjoyed the afternoon so thanks to all of our ladies who contributed from making/distributing the invitations, helping set up, baking, flower arranging, 'taxi' driving and making the day go smoothly.
Maybe if we do it again in another 20yrs or so, I'll be coming along as a former member myself 👵
