In a post-Christmas, mince pie fuelled haze we arrived bright and early to Vistabella.  A grey start with some angry dark clouds threatening rain, thankfully not appearing.

A smaller field headed out with 38 eager golfers needing some fresh air and exercise after a few days of excess gearing up for some New Year revelling but turning their attention to the game in hand.

The ever-present breeze at the hill top location lends for faster greens which were evident today.  The course is always in great condition and it’s a regular favourite for the Society where we play our 10-game Eclectic competition. The sun finally made an appearance towards the end of the field’s players.  Back to Flannigan’s for some post-game refreshments.

The scores this week:

Gold: Steve Harding (41 points – joint best score of the day)
Silver: Tony Smale (34 points)
Bronze: Martin Readman (41 points – joint best score of the day)

The “Twos” pot was a solo winner today – Steve Harding – a nice little earner!  Nearest the Pins this week were Tony Smale, Norman McBride, Rob Fyfe and Rita East.

A quick return to La Finca next year (i.e., next week!) as we say goodbye to 2024 and welcome 2025.

¡Feliz Año Nuevo!
