The Northumberland Captains entertained us
over two days at Gosforth Golf Club on the Wednesday &
Morpeth Golf Club on the Thursday
The setting and the weather was glorious over both days.
Gosforth
was a wonderful setting and the course was presented in
immaculate condition – a credit to the ground staff.
Play began at 1.30 pm and by 6.30 the Manchester Captains
were trailing by 5 -2
The
Northumberland Captains entertained us to Dinner at night.
Again Gosforth Golf Club provided an excellent setting and
our thanks go to the management and staff for making this
such a memorable occasion.
On
Thursday we moved to Morpeth Golf Club where again we were
made most welcome. The course was again presented in immaculate
condition and our thanks go to the ground staff.
Unfortunately
Manchester were unable to regain any ground going down this
time by 6 – 1, giving an overall result 11 –
3 (No Pork Pies for us!!)
