August was a month dominated by golf. The Liverpool Society of Golf Captains had their annual four day trip away this year to Harrogate, and a jolly splendid time was had by all. One of the Wallasey crew picked up a day prize and generally speaking the hospitality was very good.
A group of us at Wallasey hosted a team from Colmar in the Alsace region of France. The last two years they had hosted us so it was fitting we were able to reciprocate. They enjoyed the English courses but not so much the weather, even though Alsace is billed as the dryest part of France!!
We will try to go to Colmar again next year, but WMBO and I are scheulde to have a mid-week break there in December and do their Christmas markets.
I also had my eyes tested for new glasses and as we enter November I am still awaiting their correct calibration. Maybe I will get them in time for said French trip. The optician does have a pleasant bedside manner, which may be the only saving grace at the moment
