Another hectic week draws to a close and reaffirms the fact I am not as young as I think I am.I am definitely cutting back on golf commitments for the next few weeks.
The early part of the week saw me compete in the Spring meeting and end up a couple over par. It is a bit late for such an event but we are trying to squeeze as much as we can into the short time available to us. There then followed an embarrassing defeat 6 & 5 in the Senior Summer Knockout at the hands of ex Everton defender Derek Mountfield, and I followed up with a tired mid-table position on Wednesday in the Townley Walker Cup.
Today was the Stableford Challenge Cup and I was definitely challenged, but I can now look forward to four days off to get some energy back and rediscover my swing!!
That should see me in better shape for the Winter mixed league which has just kicked off.
Now all that was local. On Thursday I played Dean Wood near Wigan with my fellow 2020 Liverpool Captains. Dean Wood is another course I have not played but it was good to tick it off. The back nine in particular was a fun test and my partner from Ormskirk, and I recovered into third place, just outside the prizes.
Next week we play at Widnes, another new venue, and some of the girls are off to Royal Liverpool for lunch.
It is still all go but great fun. I also have a new golfing emoji. Might have overdone the botox though.
