Midweek

Hoping that everyone has good weather and plenty of time to do their midweek this week. Best scores for last two weeks went to Richard Burey with 24, then Darren Lennon with 23 and Peter Mulligan on 22.
Four teams with extra points for having their six players put score cards in. Best team score this week went to Full House with Hillbillies a close second.
Only 40 players out of 60 played. With only a few weeks before we finish you need to get those points in. Good luck golfing.
