Next Game Atherton 1 Oct

All,

I'm back from China after a delay caused by typhoon Usagi which necessitated reticketing - great end to a holiday when all you want to do is get home asap!

Thanks to Roger for maintaining the blog in my absence.  Luckily he did not need to contact me with any problems, as internet in China was a pain & I couldn't even get into the blog to see what was going on - more at Atherton.

Our game next week is at Atherton & I'm told there are no surprises awaiting us in the form of tee/green changes.

See you there.

Louis Siedle

Hi all ,
next Tuesday is at Mareeba and is a stableford event.
