Who is this?

Have you heard this one ?

A Russian woman married a Canadian gentleman and they lived happily in Toronto. However the lady was not very proficient in English,

which was not a problem at home as her husband was a fluent Russian speaker. The real problem arose whenever she had to shop for groceries. 

The first time she went to the butcher to buy chicken legs she didn't know how to make her request. In desperation, she clucked like a chicken and lifted up her skirt to show her thighs.

Her butcher got the message and gave her the chicken legs. 

The next time she needed to get chicken breasts. Again she didn't know how to say it, so she clucked like a chicken and unbuttoned her blouse.

The butcher understood again and gave her some chicken breasts. 

The next time she wanted a leg of lamb, so she got down on all fours, made a 'baa' sound and pointed to her leg. The butcher realised straight away what she wanted.

Then she needed to get sausages. She thought long and hard about how she could describe sausages, and then realised that the best way would be  to take her husband with her.

After all he spoke English.

 ( Musings from The Elders)

05/11/25

A magnificent 7 of us completely ignored the doom-ridden weather forecast and were lucky to enjoy an almost dry mornings' golf, albeit rather wet underfoot with standing water on some of the greens.

We played an individual Stableford competition and the results, in reverse order, were as follows:

In 7th place with 21 points Adrian L.

6th place was Tony Finch with 24 points

5th place was Bevan on countback, also with 24 points

4th place was Richard T. with 27 points.

the remaining 3 players all achieved 31 points

and on count back the positions were:

3rd place Sid Edwards

2nd place Nigel Connor

and the winner (again!) was Colin Cox despite having been cut by 2 strokes the previous week! Some people get all the luck.

Regards

Richard T.

Did I?

Play Golf or just spoil another walk?

As you walk off the course next time ask yourself the following questions:

Did I enjoy myself?

Have I signed my card?

Did I replace my divots and repair my pitch marks?

You should answer YES to them all!
