Another week without Cutie-Cutie, and he is in danger losing his tour card under the 25% rule, only an appearance next week will put off a difficult decision for the kangaroo-court.

The remaining 7 Muffins were fortunate to find the course open – OGC had been on the receiving end of an overnight deluge.  In stark contrast to the frozen greens of recent weeks, all were therefore looking forward to a  few receptive surfaces for once.  It's been some time since they were hard and firm, buts that's a story for another day.

Mr. Grumpy and Turbos social life had once again tried to get in the way of the Sunday morning match, a luncheon appointment forced an early start for themselves plus Tate and DJ.  Nance, Brett and Fat-Boy followed along a little later. 

As early as the tee shot from the first, it was clear that Mr. Grumpy mind was more on piling on the calories, than piling on the points.  A tee shot into the oak tree, followed by a drop and a chip out, he was hitting his 4th shot from only 30 yards in front of the tee.  It was going to be a long morning.

DJ and Turbo showed signs of a golf-game however Mr. Grumpy and Tates efforts resulted in the 4-ball being a couple down at the sandwiches.  Fat-Boy showed the sort of commitment needed to help his team win the front 9 with a de-duck at the 2nd.

The back 9 was a slightly different story, and a lacklustre performance from Nance, Brett and Fat-Boy with a uninspiring 36 points was never thought to be enough. So it proved, and with the match drawn for the 2nd week running, the one winner was the guy who devised the 17/24ths scoring system.

Nance edged the individual match for the 2nd week running with 34 points.   Fat-Boy and DJ picked up the camels.  Mr. Grumpy added to his extras total with a boob and a duck.

All to look forward to leaving their waterproofs in the locker next week.
