Mr Secretary got the shotgun started this week and with his fellow team members, Brendan, Tony and Mick (The Club Pro from Stanley Golf Course), decided that their membership time had expired.  The cheers from the triumphant four were heard by all around the course.   A Net 28, which is a new Sugar Bowl record for the Back 9, was never going to be beaten – the standards are increasing each Thursday and it is rumoured that a challenge will shortly be made to the One Boat Golf Club from the Sugar Bowl participants (but under Sugar Bowl rules – i.e. we win).

This week there was 4 two balls and The Sugar Bowl had its first Australian competitor, Kylie (“we should be so lucky, lucky, lucky, lucky”), who kept well abreast of things (well according to Brendan anyway).  Another string to Tony’s bow was discovered – if anyone out there wants a street map produced of Georgetown he is your man.

Bryan, distraught at losing his 100% record, left immediately to give himself a good talking to – but then again he was teamed with Al, so he should have known he was not going to win again.  Claire (still haven’t got a coloured certificate) made the presentation to the winning team under strict Sugar Bowl rules – no tongues.

The Bowl was presented to Brendan – for you readers The Bowl has to be improved upon each week by the winning captain – who then passed it down to Tony, who duly gave it to Lee – GES (thanx Dunny) have been called into action again.

Once again many thanks to The Sugar Bowl Chef, Sue Thomas, for providing the post tournament scoff – the plate was empty very quickly – it was appreciated by all, although Paul charging us all £1 a head was a bit steep.

There is a vacancy on the Committee – a Treasurer is required – for further details please call the Press Liaison Officer, Gary, who returns next week along with Jenni, who got the sack from Prague as a golf instructor and returns with her head bowed low. 

That’s all for this week, more tales of joviality next week – will The Club Membership remain at 2?! – Watch this space
