Geez Anthony,

No wonder your dad makes you drive a Volvo!! You can't even RIDE on a golf cart without getting jacked up!! :roll:

Seriously though, I heard someone went for a tumble, didn't know it was you, get better quick and come on out to the practice event, you can drive my 02 if your up for it....

cheers,

Ian

Oh, I forgot to thank a certain group....

Thank you to everyone that spent a little while after the event helping to clean up. When the event ended, the course was standing. I started to head out in one of the bus golf carts and I got halfway down the track, looked back and it was all gone. Thank you for taking that few extra minutes to help! :gpower:
