Let us know what you think ....... send a mail today!

First a mail from someone who appears at last to have accepted some responsibility for our match defeat against the Mercantile:

Unfortunately, I as a committee member, must accept part of the blame for the unfortunate defeat, by a point, (I didn't lose by the way) that we suffered on Sunday. I forgot I was dealing with an idiot when I accepted the poisoned chalice of leadership of the team. (nobody else on the committee was prepared to play). I however must congratulate the winners, the Mercantile for a game well played and a deserved win. I look forward to our match next year.
Thanks to all who played.  Regards Peter.

Dear Mr Coutie, We are pleased to note that after some reflection you appear to have at least accepted some responsibility for the humiliating defeat whilst you were in charge of the team. We must correct your comment with regard to other members of the Committee not being 'prepared to play'. You will recall that no-one else could play through injury, work commitments or thespian activities. This after all was how you ended up in charge. We would reiterate our sentiment - You leave an Arab in charge for five minutes and look what happens!

Yours sportingly, The rest of the Committee.

and another mail from the same bloke:

Subject: bad behaviour

This evening, I went into the Club for a quiet and much needed refreshment. A member of the Club (who shall remain nameless) had taken his lovely wife out for her annual  airing. Unfortunately she let down her much respected husband (IAIN not Ian Burnett) by  stealing chips and bread that had been set aside for Cody (Stan's dog and excuse for getting out of the house). I hope this behaviour is not repeated and members consider the consequences of too much excitement for their partners. Please give them more regular outings and food.

Dear Peter, It is indeed unfortunate that a trip to Stonehaven for an anniversary lunch could degenerate into such unseemly behaviour on the part of this young lady. She does have a history of complaining about the lack of Chardonnay or Pinot Grigio in the Club and was most upset when told by the Bar Steward that if she wasn't happy, she could go to the Kinloch! I wouldn't worry too much however Peter as it will probably be quite a while until the member in question gets round to taking his wife out again.

Yours hopefully, The Editor.

 
The culprit scoffing the chip piece                                    The hapless mutt - and Cody!

now a mail, we suspect relating to Sunday morning golf:

at last, a sensible mail from another follower of Wilmott's Way:

Dear David, We are so glad Bruce's advice is helping you and the Secretary to another overall victory against the former Club Pro and, amongst others, the small portly gentleman. We concede that Steve Logan did previously offer advice on the position of the 'left foot', however it was always left foot forward, so if you wanted to fade the ball (or is it draw - can never remember) you were invariably 'left up the creek without a paddle' so to speak. Anyway, look out for Bruce's advice on pitching and chipping, coming shortly.

Yours leftfootforwardly, The Committee.

p.s. you have never reminded us what FTAS stands for?
