it was the first round of the Foursomes Championships - in teams of two, alternate shots are played with the one ball, one player tees off all the odd tees while the other the even (in the second round the players switch tees)...
we had 7 pars but 2 triple bogeys and 3 double bogeys to finish with 92 off the stick...this puts us in equal second with defending titleholders Suze and Pat, two shots behind previous winners Chris and Sue...it will be interesting to play in the last group this coming Saturday...
after golf I head to GEO (Gungahlin Enclosed Oval) to watch the Jets play ANU...I had offered to donate $5 per goal to Breast Cancer Network Australia and upped the ante for any goal by Cookie to $10 per goal...I ended up being a goal umpire and of course Cookie kicked the first goal of the game!
conditions were cold and windy and the Jets ended up winning 8.19-67 to 1.0-6...Cookie kicked a second in the last quarter so I ended up donating $50...
Sunday after walking Hodge, I picked mum and dad up and took them to Mother's Day on the Shareway...they had a good jazz band playing which got mum's toe tapping but conditions weren't that pleasant with the wind whistling through and I suspect there weren't as many people and stalls as they were anticipating...
yesterday I got up early to walk Hodge and then bused in to work...
street O was on the Aranda-Bruce map...it was quite windy...
as usual Jodie and I opted for Course C - to visit 12 out of a possible 20 controls...there were 11 controls in Aranda and 9 in Bruce...one of the 11 in Aranda was close to the "Golden Gate" bridge...we ended up grabbing all the Aranda controls and one Bruce one...
