Storm Erik threw its worst at the course on Friday night as it shrugged it off with the drainage system working effectively, the tidal surge made the second hole a bit more interesting, thankfully that receded in quick time.
The following day Saturday, February saw a large number of members playing the course with good scores being posted.
Gary Loveridge (12.0) was the winner in the Saturday Open with a good score of 38 pts. (BOT). Gary had two birdies i.e. on the 10th & 16th, along with six pars.

Dermot had one birdie (on the 16th) with eight pars. David McGowan (6.2) took Gross with 37 pts. David took one birdie (on the 5th) with twelve pars out of the course.
