It will take you only about ten seconds and, amazingly, it will reveal your all-time favourite movie.
If you are good at arithmetic, do it in your head, but of course you can do it on paper or even
on your phone or calculator just to confirm the calculation.
I wonder if you will get the same answer as me?

DO NOT cheat. DO YOUR arithmetic, THEN compare the results on the list of movies attached.
You will be AMAZED at how scary true and accurate this test is:


1. Pick a number from 1-9.


2. Multiply that number by 3.


3. Add 3.


4. Multiply by 3 again.


5. Your total will be a two-digit number.

Add the first and second digits together to find your favourite movie

Apologies to Graham Guy, as I had only heard about Richard R’s playing to his handicap at the Cut but I missed out on advising that Graham Guy did too – he scored 36 points and these are his photos of the day:

Eleven WCGC golfers got up around 4am to drive down to Mandurah to play the Cut course – congratulations to Richard Russell on scoring 36 points whereas another player who regularly scores in the low 90’s chalked 115 and lost 3 balls.  I expect there were other similar experiences.  Photos:

Another note:  Wembley is not replacing the scanner as it is not supported by MiClub, their scoring software.  They are encouraging us to use phones with the phone app MiScore rather than typing in the score for each hole after completing the round.  You will probably need a phone holder for your buggy – available from golf shops but also check out Temu
