Having originally been as many as a possible 10 or 11 players, by Friday morning we ended up with 5 due to various mishaps, pressure of business and a confusion over dates. So Stephen Bois, John Macpherson, Tom Webb and Jeremy Fricker, joined me for a much enjoyed day on Rye’s beautiful links in fantastic weather on a course that was playing as well as I have ever seen it in over 50 years of membership. We were joined for an excellent lunch by Angela Webb, after which Jeremy, Stephen and John played the recently completed Jubilee course adjoining the original links, which proved to be no less of a challenge . I had played Rye three times in the week and Littlestone once, so passed on yet another round.
It was clear that that those who couldn’t make the day missed out on a seriously good outing and I hope that I may be able to perhaps have a repeat next year or the year after. To those who did come , thank you , and to those who were unable to c o me, and those who did not think of it please re consider next time.
