| Incredible shot - Collusion - no way. Of course, under the rules, it is not permitted to leave a ball in a position where it may assist another player if one wishes to assist another player.(Rule 22). No intention here - professional players - money is the prize. Thank you, Geoffrey Hammond. kb | |
Sausage Rolls. In the past, when the kitchen is closed, there hasn't been a hot food offering for players returning to the clubhouse or for any other clubhouse patrons. Now these are available - the picture shows a serving of two sausage rolls, sliced up. Two of them could be more than enough for four people. There has been requests from members and visitors for many years for something like this. Now we have, let's support it and eat them.
The plan is that if it goes well, the offering could be expanded to something like small quiches. Later on it could be a few holes of golf on Sunday afternoon, a couple of small quiches, a drink in the clubhouse then home, with no need to cook dinner. Sounds a good idea? kb

 Dr Who You may have wondered what the device in the photo is. At first glance it could be something from the long running BBC series Dr Who - actually it is a rain-gauge that records and transmits the amount of rainfall and the rate of rainfall. Every municipality has problems with stormwater - that is water coming from rainfall finding its way into the sewerage system and overloading it. The idea of these monitors is to find out the areas where the overload of the sewerage system by stormwater ingress, is coming from. This is done by recording flows in the sewerage system and at the same time co-relating those to rainfall. You may recall some years ago we had a similar device installed. It is down by the area of the practice chipping green. - kb | Vicars Shield .On Saturday we played the first round of the Vicars Shield. It is a two-round event and Grant Blanchard heads the field at present with 43 points. Chris Barry was the winner of the competition of the day - Chris is a new member who also recorded 43 points but won the day from Grant on a count back. Chris is a provisional member , so he was not eligible to compete for the Vicars Shield. Chris was telling me he had been absent from golf for 12 years, so he was very pleased with the result. - kb The Internet. Recently the booking system has been unavailable from time to time. The reason for this is that the internet connection that the golf club has 'been down' ie not working. The Booking System needs to access the computer server in the office which contains members details as well as information about current bookings. The booking system accesses the computer via the internet so if the internet is not working at the golf club then the booking system doesn't work. On the other hand the club's website is hosted on a server in the San Francisco area so even if the internet is not working at the golf club the club's website will still work. We think the reason why the internet availability is sporadic is that there is lots of work going on at the moment to do with the installation and commissioning of the NBN. I have been told that the start of the commissioning of the NBN is imminent. Different areas in Bowral have different time tables so that schedule ifs for the golf club area. kb |
