    Hey mate…no…playing lots…just not posting much.

    Had a decent weekend with a handicap drop from 17.5 to 16.8, and splitting playing time between Yering and Mandalay – taken up a 3 month trial membership out there – essentially 7 day green fees – for $169. Absolute bargain for a really good layout.

    So now tossing up whether to stay at YM or move to Mandalay in July.

    Good to see you’re still trudging the course and the cap heading south for you. Mandalay., will have to have a look at that on the way in or out at the next Vic Nats.

    Does a 7 day green fees for $169 mean you can play 7 days a week for zip and just pay a comp fee? OR.. you pay $169 for 12 mths membership and then green fees and comp fees each time you play on top of that?

    Boo Boo’d with the 12 mths. Did the sensible thing and had a look at the website. Not a bad deal at all. Looks a cracker of a course as well.

    So it turns out that the comp win I had in December was, unbeknownst to me, a monthly medal win. My first one anywhere as it happens.

    The upshot is that I’m in the final on Sunday week. And thanks to the combined efforts of COVID and Dictator Dan…there are only 7 monthly medal winners.

    Could be fun.

    How could you not know it was a MM ?
    Well done and good luck in Medal of Medalists.

    People say that nothing is impossible, but I do nothing every day.
    No championships worth mentioning in recent years.

    Well done in your medalist work, too.

    Yes Geoffrey…won the medal in December. I think they’re pouring the bronze for the statue as a departing gift.

    Get off the Ring Road and it’s straight up the Hume.
    But I think you knew that
