The golf took second place on Friday to a detailed review of the rulebook. This will be published shortly, once Mike's heiroglyphics have been deciphered.
There was a meeting convened with the General Manager of Tiverton Golf Club, who after due consideration, deferred to the Club Captain, who sat down at the table next to us. He quickly responded with the ruling that the ball can only be deemed admissable in the contest for the longest drive on the third hole of the course if it was resting on the short green stuff, commonly known as the fairway. We immediately thanked him effusively for his excellent independent interpretation of the rules before he turned to his fellow golfers and asked for their opinion. This prompted further debate and the suggestion that we hold the longest drive competition on a different hole. This was instantly dismissed as being un-D.O.G.-like.
The other matter up for debate was a club motto. Malcolm has made his proposal, Charlie is ensuring the grammar is correct. In the meantime, anybody fancy translating the title to this post? It has nothing to do with golf.
By the way, Malcolm played really well. His handicap is deservedly cut from 20.8 to 19.2. Charlie edges up to 16.3, Mike and Kevin stay unchanged on 14.7 and 15.0 respectively.
