Academia, Old Tom Morris and a London Letdown

[Noel Mugavin]

9th

Finished the front 9 playing bogey golf. Very happy with that.


Sausage roll from the halfway house.
At some stage one of the young Scottish blokes, Connor, asked where I was from in Australia. Told him Perth. That's where my brother and his girlfriend are living at the moment he told me. More discussion, a message to his sister, turns out live in the next suburb to me.

10th turns back toward the Eden River, with the wind behind the back


Nice par to start then back 9

Par 3 11th, bit of danger


Bit timid, landed short but safe





American bloke put one pretty close, then stood next to it waiting, looking at us. Eventually asked 'is that good?
'Your asking the wrong bloke mate, I give nothing'
He putted out for a birdie

Huh...love the A400M photo bomb at low level....probably running up and down the east coast...

Last 7 returning to town into the breeze. Each hole worth an extra shot according to Peter.
12th hole, hidden fairway bunkers from when the course played in the opposite direction.
What breeze? 2 putt par.

Spoke too soon. Doubled the next 3 battling the breeze.













Hell bunker on the Par 5 14th


Not me, but Connor found himself in there much to the mirth of the group. He got out really well though in 1 shot.
Found myself in a bunker close to the green. Successfully out in one and only trip to the sand for the day.
