Apologies to Mr Allen Dick for using your name in a cheap dig at Taff. Apologies also to Taff for calling him Taff and not Mr Mark Davies. The Welsh can be so sensitive.
All the digs at Mark Davies have worked as 3 second places last week have been backed up by an impressive victory in the Turkey Trot. He won by 3 clear shots to take the top prize of a bottle of brandy and a meat voucher. He's on fire.
Apologies also to dinks for forgetting to mention your score of 14 on the 6th in last weeks medal. There was a 26 on that hole though. And I believe Kev White stopped counting at 14 on the 12th and has since given up golf.
Customs result
1st Mark Austerfield
2nd Cam Donnelly
3rd Adrian Steele
Turkey trot
1 Mark Davies
2 Jody Clark
3 Cam Donnelly
Ladies winner
Jackie Buckingham
2's Dave Osgood, Barry Lumley, A Jones, Ian Colwill, R Berry.
There were 12 other prizes won by various other members but you don't get a mention for finishing 4th or worse.
This weeks nearly man award has to go to Cam Donnelly. ( I don't mean nearly tall enough )
2nd and 3rd maybe next week you might win.
Also a special mention to Mr John Prior who 3 putted on the 16th he left his first one short the second popped over the hole. Not worth a special mention until you are told that the first putt was from 2 inches. Ben Crossley News !!!

Don't forget
Customs on Thursday 18 hole roll up £3 to enter (stableford white tees)
The Turkey trot on Saturday a stableford comp with lots of prizes. There's plenty of space on the sheet to enter and I believe the wind is dropping for the weekend. 
Maybe this week Taff could actually win something. Only joking Taff.
