At last! The sun came out, the rain stayed away and 84 members didn't need their rain wear, in fact most didn't even need sweaters.

So the aforementioned members resplendent in their red and white garb enjoyed a fabulous day  Starting with a beautifully decorated clubhouse, St George's flags on every pin and a stuning half way house with "typical" English fare served by two lovely English maidens, Chris and Jackie. Thanks as always to our two tent erectors Mick and Les  

After the competition, a Texas Scramble with all the usual efforts to ensure all get in the obligatory 4 drives each, the field congregated on the clubhouse terrace for yet more English fare and Portuguese beer.

The prize giving was faultlessly conducted by Jan and Kevin with all recipients happy with their efforts.

Captain Keith Scott thanked all those who made this, another one of the many National days the club organises, such a success.
