A Senior moment...or two

I have been suffering Firefox v Google conflicts which have restricted my blogging but I think I have cracked it.....

The last month or so has seen Wallasey golf club Seniors section celebrate 50 years as a sub-section of the Club, which interestingly is also celebrating its 125th anniversary this year.

The Seniors had a Jubilee Stableford competition early in May, and last Friday hosted members of all the clubs we play matches against,  in a better ball fun event. The celebration concluded with a gala black tie dinner at the Club when over 70 people ate,  drank and danced the night away. The Jubilee Cup was presented on the night by the Club captain, Paul Corvers.

Earlier in the week there was a two day Seniors scratch stableford competition which was won with a very creditable 65 points. The Club will now focus on their 125th celebration week in June.

I will now focus on the weekend, as Plymouth Argyle lock horns with AFC Wimbledon at Wembley for the final promotion place from Division 4, as we die hards call it!

Argyle have sold in excess of 31,000 tickets almost twice as many as Wimbledon so the atmosphere should be belting. I was at Wembley the last time Argyle got to the play-offs. That was twenty years ago at the old stadium and Argyle won 1-0. Neil Warnock was manager at the time and Ronnie Mange scored the winning goal. All great fun.

So here's hoping the Green Army can cheer Argyle to victory once again, and I can say, I was there!
