Calm after the storm

Went to Margaret Miles-Bramwell's surprise birthday party last night, a triumph of organising with over 400 guests and MMB none the wiser (hats off to MMBs daughter Claire and Pam from Head Office). Christopher Biggins hosted the main event and entertainment throughout the evening was great. Managed to keep off the alcohol and drove home at 1:30 in the morning, up at 7:30 in plenty of good time for golf.

April Medal at Golf Club - a steady 85 for a nett 70 was more than acceptable. Kept in mind what I was working on Friday - swing within self, minimise mistakes. I only had two three-putts (no four-putts!) and I had at least a couple of one-putt greens. Until the 17th hole I'd managed to keep a double off my card but made a major league cockup hitting into the greenside bunker and then failing to get out first time.

Anyway am pleased with that score, I hit three or four truly duff shots but got out of jail at least that many times - made a big putt on tenth for par, a big putt on thirteenth for bogey, pitched to four foot and made putt for par on fourteenth after pulling tee shot well left. Very Pleased. Just kept trying to make sure first putt was no more than a dustbin lid from the pin every time. It worked more often than not!!!
