Pics from 2010
Thanks to
Dave Sellens for getting up to take these.
 All set for a quacking day
|
 Very eggcelent!
|
 Keith prepares the Champion's morning drink - Pernod, lime & lemonade.....at 6am....!
|
 Matt is a little stunned after the first taste...
|
 It makes a change from dancing round their handbags.
|
 ...and the taste takes Shiner by total surprise! But 'two-shirts' Rambo is hardly phased.
|
 This year we welcome a couple of 'new' faces: Clive Sadler & Bal Banga.
|
 Everyone assembles for the usual ol' talk.
|
 Don't tell Ron!
|
 While Mark offers a word of encouragement, Keith starts us off.
|
 After purposely winning the Port, Marky is buzzin.
|
 The preparation is all over as we look back down the 1st.
|
 We all have our own styles - that's swing and hair!
|
 Wal, the 2002 champion, likes to give everyone a yard or two head start.
|
 The swing of our 2008 winner.
|
 Another swing - of sorts!
|
...and a few
more...     
That's quite enough of them!
|
 Stylish, trendy, suave, witty, intelligent... what a bloke! Then there's Gary.....!
|
|
Oh, just one more
swing shot;
|
...to a well
controlled finish. Ok Dodge, he's taken the photo. The fact that the ball's only just gone past the ladies tee doesn't matter!
|
|
Oh what the heck,
here's some more....
OK - that's definitely enough!
|
 Oh dear, what have we here Mr J? Thinking you could hide it in a bush and get away with it?
|
 Dave has found a very safe place to keep his egg!
|
 Another Quid for charity!
|
 There's something special about helping your mate look for his favourite tee...
|
| And so to the prize-giving... |
 Wally hands over the Shortest Drive to Bal
|
 Paul passes the Longest Drive to Steve, who mullered any previous record!
|
 Ian hands over Ron's Bull's Eye to Lee with a broad smile - I wonder why????
|
 Is this really an Isle of Wight shirt?
|
 Smile #2 for passing on The Gritter
|
 Smile #3 - they're getting bigger!
|
 The Plum Bowl finds a worthy home
|
 Preston wins the Furthest Drive!
|
 Bal whips it out of Kev's hands before he can complete the hat-trick
|
 The prize for the most birdies...
|
 Past their best-before date! |
 The real birdie prize takes a dive! |
 At least he's got one bird under control! |
 Smile #4 - One happy man!
|
 Another new winner! But where's the smile gone? Perhaps this is Ian's 'Council-Representative-posing-for-the-Gazette' face... Or is he ready for the Happy Bus?
|
 He's been dreaming of this for years! |
