Another 5-ball and Turbo takes on the tossing duties on the 6th tee. To no-ones surprise Mr. Grumpy is paired with Nance AGAIN and thus for your correspondent a long morning is in prospect. 

It's a bit snowy and frosty early doors, but Cutie-Cutie in particular is making light of the conditions and with occasional contributions from Stan and Turbo, the result seems to be a foregone conclusion from a few holes in. It takes Nance 14 holes to join the party, but his much heralded "21 points from the last 7 holes" turns out to be as reliable as Darlington FC's finances.

With the team result a foregone conclusion we now come to the 5th and final hole. The camel score stands at 20, mainly due to Turbo building the total in increments of two, but to this point Mr. Grumpy has contributed zero. Thus regular readers will know where this narrative is heading.

Unlike everyone else, Mr. Grumpy commits the schoolboy error of aiming for the green. Nance is big right, Cutie-Cutie is short left. Turbo is short right and Stan is just short when "short" could be considered as a wild exaggeration. A few chips and a couple of ducks later everyone is on the green leaving the Grumpster to splash out and a couple of disconsolate putts later he is £5.25p poorer.
