THE GOLFING NUN …

A nun walks into Mother Superior’s office and plunks down into a chair, she lets out a sigh heavy with frustration.
‘What troubles you, Sister?’ asked the Mother Superior, ‘I thought this was the day you spent with your family.’

‘It was,’ sighed the Sister. ‘And I went to play golf with my brother, we try to play golf as often as we can.  You know I was quite a talented golfer before I devoted my life to Christ.’

‘I seem to recall that,’ the Mother Superior agreed, ‘So I take it your day of recreation was not relaxing?’

‘Far from it,’ snorted the Sister. ‘In fact, I even took the Lord’s name in vain today!’

‘Goodness, Sister!’ gasped the Mother Superior, astonished, ‘You must tell me all about it!’

‘Well, we were on the fifth tee… and this hole is a monster, 540 yard Par 5, with a nasty dogleg right and a hidden green.. 
and I hit the drive of my life, I creamed it the sweetest swing I ever made.
And it’s flying straight and true, right along the line I wanted… and it hits a bird in mid-flight!’

‘Oh my!’ commiserated the Mother, ‘How unfortunate! but surely that didn’t make you blaspheme, Sister!’

 ‘No, that wasn’t it,’ admitted Sister, ‘While I was still trying to fathom what had happened, this squirrel runs out of the woods, grabs my ball and runs off down the fairway!’
‘Oh, that would have made me blaspheme!’ sympathized the Mother.

 ‘But I didn’t, Mother!’ sobbed the Sister, ‘And I was so proud of myself! and while I was pondering whether this was a sign from God,  this hawk swoops out of the sky and grabs the squirrel and flies off, with my ball still clutched in his paws!’

‘So that’s when you cursed,’ said the Mother with a knowing smile.
‘Nope, that wasn’t it either,’ cried the Sister, anguished, ‘because as the hawk started to fly out of sight, the squirrel started struggling, and the hawk dropped him right there on the green, and the ball popped out of his paws and rolled to about 18 inches from the cup!’

Mother Superior sat back in her chair, folded her arms across her chest, fixed the Sister with a baleful stare and said…

‘You missed the f………. putt, didn’t you?’

Booking sheet
Wembley Golf management requires our expected numbers a week ahead of each fixture. The booking sheet is designed to inform the committee about your expectations for playing in the two or three weeks. It is experimental at this stage to see if you find this convenient and easy to use.  If we over-estimate how many starters we have, Wembley will reduce our starting slots, because we are preventing them ‘selling’ those slots to the public.  Equally, Wembley may prevent members starting if we have more people attending than the 24 slots we are allocated so we need a mechanism to be more accurate with our guesses.  Hopefully, the booking sheet will do the trick.  Please use it.

The secretary congratulates the winner of the Fergus McDuff Trophy, David Hayes (right). Perhaps the burden of assuming the presidency of the West Coast Golf Club has put David off his game?
