Thanks for coming out to Falnash for State League 2.

Thanks to all the Big Feet who helped out.

With reigning champ Carol O. unavailable to for selection, Greg Barbour,her former partner in victory, had to play solo amongst a quality field on this New Year's Day spectacular.

Despite a great performance by Greg, he ended a little too far behind the leaders on the last hole, where the Paula Shingler/Wiz pair took a shot lead into the hole but were stymied by a birdie from the Mark Shingler/Andy Simpson pair. Nelly Prosser and Simon George tapped out in par to take 3rd place, but the two Shingler teams had to go to a play-off hole to settle the title.

Thanks to Dan for letting us capture him winning Comedy Gold as he (amongst others) wrangled the uncrossable fence with a closed gate mystery.
