Today I played in the first group of the field...fantastic...a little chilly, lots of dew on the grass but it felt like we were the only people on the course. This is the view at the 6th Tee..I played with Yola, Yvonne and Nada ...played well enough to allow me to feel a little more comfortable about my pennant games coming up. 
 

A nice photo of Alex on our floor at work...I took it for him to send home to his mum in China...I thought he looked quite handsome in that shirt! He is a pleasure to work with.
