31 players were skilful (or lucky) enough to beat my woeful score of 27 points and went into the Grand Prize Draw. The two names drawn at random were:
1st: Sheena Harrington who wins a dozen golf balls of her choice
2nd: Graeme Syme who wins a bottle of Wolf Blass “President’s Selection” white wine
13 players (unlucky for them!!) did not beat my score and went into the BOOBY Prize Draw. The two boobies drawn at random were:

2nd: Bob Marshall
The boobies each win a brass ball marker with an “L plate” design.
