Week two of the Summer season and Turbo and Fat-Boy are both away. Fat-Boy's absence allows Cutie-Cutie to sneak up for a game so it's 6 players from the 6th tee.

Nance chucks 'em up and sends out DJ, Cutie-Cutie and Mr. Grumpy to be followed by Tate, Brett and Nance himself. The camel caravan starts early as DJ contrives to knock his opening drive into the bunker by the side of the second green via the spinney between the 5th and 6th. Somehow he still makes a five!

It's bright, sunny, if a little parky and for players of even modest ability good scores could have been routine. However, 'modest ability' is the Achilles Heel. Nance is lucky to complete his round at all having been a victim of multiple stab wounds on the 7th and 8th. Brett contrives to amass 8 single point holes on the front 9 and tots up only 26 points with no blobs.

DJ goes round like Westwood - unfortunately Vivienne, not Lee.

Only Cutie-Cutie distinguishes himself with a winning 35 points ahead of Mr. Grumpy with 32. His Grumpiness collects 11 camels, 4 of which are self inflicted on the last two holes and Nance weighs in with a similar amount. 

There is much controversy at the end with Brett tactically lagging a 5 foot putt on the 4th in order not to be last to play on the 5th. This causes Tate to knock his tee shot wide right of the 5th green from where, in trying to avoid the bunker, he smacks his ball into the woods. Stroke and distance penalties result and he has to play the shot again. Tate is not a happy camper.

DJ, Cutie-Cutie and Mr. Grumpy take the match and the £4, 77 points to 72 and 4 OOB's plus a mallard each from the losing 3-ball swells the 'Curry Night' kitty. It's just a pity there will never be one.
