    “Well there goes that dream…”

    Is exorable a word?

  8. One of those for me. Slips below Leedsboy I think.

    I still subscribe to the notion that you do not read this thread until after you have played the day’s game.

    • Indeed, that’s what gentlemen do. (The scurrilous rumour of me having a sneaky late night look at Australian scores is fake news).
      I’m being uncustomarily (?) thick – where is today’s answer being given away?

      • I couldn’t see it either. I feel for the Australian contingent – not only can’t they see the early posts, they have to play when they should be asleep like civilised people. Poor mites.

    Can’t complain though as finished on 4 under which I think may be a personal best.

    -1 for me.
    Where you to Black Celeb, and I’ll post Spoonie forthwith.

  75. Most excellent work @plumb1909 and, of course, congrats to Bad Dog himself !
    One minor, and no doubt to-be-ignored, quibble – I’m not a fan of daily score updates. After the first nine, then again around the 16th does me just fine. That way I can convince myself I’m really in contention…..

  76. That’s it, we’re all done.

    Well done to BadArtDog 🥇 Leedsboy & Pyramid 🥈🥈 for staying ahead of the pack.
    Special 🎖️ gold star for Bozo for achieving four Eagles in one round, and a large beer 🍺 for Black Celebration for looking after Spoonie for the next month.

    Many thanks to everyone who took part, and we just need a volunteer for April.
    Ta ta for now, and I’ll see you down at the practice nets 👍

  80. Well done BAD. Mr. Consistent but pressed all the way by Pyramid and Leedsboy who must currently be experiencing the stress of being dragged back into a relegation battle (in the football world). Well done to Plumb who hyped the battle to fever pitch with the daily updates.

  86. Congrats to BAD anf Pyramid. I’m happy with scraping into a joint second after blowing my streak in the early holes.

    And super officiating Plumb – loved your work.

  118. In that case I’ll give myself a pat on the back.
