On Monday 20th July the Leek Seniors played at Wolstanton. Sadly the Wolstanton Seniors' Captain's partner had to cancel at the last minute so we played John on his own. Despite the fact that he seemed not to need a partner for one or two holes, the result was somewhat inevitable.

The weather looked like being miserable with light rain falling but I managed to play in shirt sleeves and only had to put up my umbrella on a couple of occasions. This was another course that I had not played for a few years and it has not changed one bit.

John, the Wolstanton Seniors' Captain was super company and we had the pleasure of the Wolstanton Club Captain too to whom I had to apologise for the poor etiquette of our two players who failed to show him the respect of not beating him on his own course! We ran out the winners on the day with 5 wins, 2 halves and one loss.

Wolstanton will be here next year, no doubt looking to bring a winning formula to Leek.
