He also needed to be conscious of the ANZAC Day services and celebrations of our fallen and the adjustments to bookings and availability.

Ken contemplated an additional 9 holes game but decided to play at Coolangatta on Monday and Thursday (ANZAC Day) and then rescheduled rebooked his game at RACV Royal Pines to Wednesday afternoon at 12.10pm with two others who are club members at Royal Pines , playing the Green Tees for the first 9 and then the Gold tees for the second 9.

The weather over this week has been quite changeable and the course at Coolangatta was very wet after almost. 2 inches of rain over Friday and Saturday and then showers on the Sunday morning before clearing on the Sunday. As a consequence, the course was too wet to allow carts on Sunday , Monday and Tuesday morning.

Ken walked the source on Monday afternoon having hired an MGI battery buggy. It was a good decision as the course was very wet.

He played with one other player named Bruce, who was a little older and played off 22. We had an enjoyable afternoon finishing at 2 hours and 10 minutes after hitting off at 1.44pm. Bruce has 22 Stableford points and Ken played well to have 19 points.

Wednesday came and the weather was significantly improved, no showers and Ken played
