No Cutie-Cutie, no Fat-Boy and no Nance so once again a dodgy 5-ball has to skulk off to the 6th tee. It's a welcome return for Turbo after a couple of weeks in Menorca and the rest certainly seems to have done him a power of good. Brett partners DJ and after a few choice comments from DJ about Tate's lack of basic arithmetic the previous week, he gets handed the card and has to keep all 5 scores.

Fortunately the course is very quiet and in fact a past captain is also in a 5 ball so once again, the Muffins seem to be setting a trend. 

Turbo is hitting fairways with regularity, chipping stiff and knocking in putts and after only a few holes the game's up. In an effort to restore some respectability to his game, Mr. Grumpy has left most of his clubs in the boot of his car and with the exception of a couple of OOBs, is tracking Turbo, albeit from some distance. The 3 ball take the front 9 comfortably but Brett and DJ shade the back 9 to limit their exposure to just £2. 

In individual terms it's no contest with Turbo's 42 points being 5 better than Mr. Grumpy - who also shares the camels with DJ. Tate has a frustrating morning with a number of fairway splitting drives resulting in blobs and a variety of self critical descriptions.

Another £15 goes into the kitty.
