Last game thirty (30) players turned out for the game at SEFTON. There were six (6) late withdrawals. Also, there were four new players who have recorded their first official game with the DOOLEY’S Social Golf Club. Unfortunately, it was a late start and a day when we had no BBQ or Raffle. Prizes won on the day will be distributed today.

NEW and a FORMER PLAYER
The four new players were JENNY CLARKE, DAVID and HELEN RAMSAY and JOSH SERRA. I am not sure if JENNY is a Fox Hills golfer invited along by Margaret Kain. I believe DAVID and HELEN RAMSAY are club members who have now joined the golf club. JOSH SERRA is the youngest son of DEAN who his father has introduced to the DOOLEY’S social golf.
The former player who we have not seen for many years is DEAN SERRA. DEAN began playing with at WOODVILLE in November 1995 and played his last game with us at SEFTON in 2007. DEAN up till that time had attended 112 games with us.
We extend a warm welcome to our new and former player and hope they have enjoyed their days with the DOOLEY Golfers and will continue playing with us. We hope they will be able to invite other family and friends along to play with us and enjoy our social club. This is our fifty-fifth (55) year, since we began playing in 1967.

WEEKEND of GOLF
LOCATION NELSONS BAY
WHEN 24TH to 26TH SEPTEMBER
ACCOMMODATION THE LANDMARK RESORT
I requested 34 rooms, not deluxe, but have been allocated the following rooms. I feel these rates for the rooms is EXORBITANT.
Fri/Sat Sun
Reserved 5 x ONE BEDROOM DELUXE $245 P/Night $165
5 x ONE BEDROOM STANDARD $225 P/Night $150
10 x DELUXE TWO BEDROOM $285 P/Night $205
5 x STANDARD TWO BEDROOM $265 P/Night $190
7 x DELUXE TWO BEDROOM EXECUTIVE $375 P/Night $305
2 x STANDARD TWO BEDROOM EXECUTIVE $335 P/Night $290
ACCOMMODATION MANTRA
The MANTRA has no single or no one bedroom accommodation. All apartments are two bedrooms. Nominally, four or six people to share.
COSTS ARE STANDARD 2 BEDROOM AND 1 BATHROOM KING/QUEEN $445.00 P/Night
2 BEDROOM, 2 BATHROOMS, SUPERIOR $484.00 P/Night
2 BEDROOM, 2 BATHROOMS, POOL VIEW $510.00 P/Night
3 BEDROOM, 2 BATHROOMS, BACK VIEW,3 or 6 Share $554.00 P/Night
3 BEDROOM, 2 BATHROOMS, VIEW POOL and RESORT $577.00 P/Night
3 BEDROOM PENTHHOUSE, 2 BATHROOMS OCEAN VIEW $696.00 P/Night
These prices per person are slightly more reasonable than the LANDMARK if you are prepared to share with three or five other people.
Another option is to seek other alternatives. However, I will need to know your requirements by the April game if you intend to stay at the LANDMARK or the MANTRA.
I am awaiting prices at the MANTRA for the weekend before the school holidays to see what the difference is. On Saturday 18th September we play at Woodville.

JOKE CORNER
Jim-Bob showed up at his golf club one day to discover that the club had begun a program using seniors as caddies. One day a week, the club replaced all its regular caddies with senior citizens.
"It's a new program," the club starter explained. "All the seniors we hired live at the old folks' home down the road. But they are in terrific physical shape, and we're just trying to help them earn a little extra money, get some exercise and stay young."
That sounded like a noble idea to Jim-Bob, so he set off to the first tee with his 75-year-old caddie. When Jim-Bob finished up on No. 18, the starter asked him how it went.
"Well," Jim-Bob said, "my caddie was nice guy and he tried really hard. But his eyes were bad. He just couldn't see far enough to help me find all my shots."
The starter was apologetic. "I'm sorry. Come back next week and I promise I'll get you a caddie who can see just fine."
A week later, Jim-Bob returned. He headed to the first tee, and this time his caddie was 80 years old.
Jim-Bob was a little worried, but his concerns disappeared after his first tee shot.
It was booming drive, around 300 yards but a little offline. "Do you have it?" Jim-Bob asked, "I lost it in the sun." "Don't worry," the elderly caddie replied, "I saw exactly where it landed."
Jim-Bob and his caddie started up the fairway in the direction where the old man said he'd seen the ball. But Jim-Bob started to get a little worried when they began wandering a bit, the caddie seemingly unsure of the exact location.
"What's the matter?" Jim-Bob asked, "I thought you said you saw where it went."
"Oh, yes sir, I saw exactly where the ball went," the caddie replied.
"Then where is it?"
The caddie replied, "I forgot."
