Exams are over, let's play golf!

11.30am. The end of our 1st set of Oxford exams. The relief is palpable but there is also a certain sense of forlornness - what to do now??

Answer - play golf. Not just any golf - PUB GOLF!

The course (in effect a pub crawl around East Oxford) had been designed by Andy Jury and he and I then determined par for each course (ranging from Guiness, alcopops, red wine etc drunk in a certain amount of sips, aka shots).

There was some early congestion on the leaderboard but at the end of the tournament the pre-tournament favourites 'The Torpedoes', resplendent in pink, reigned victorious with 3 of their fourball team going around in a perfect round of 9. Their remaining member took a two on the par 4, double jack & coke 8th hole.

Well done to organisers and victors alike!

A sedate start to the round - the 1st hole at the Cape of Good Hope

The course was full of hazards!
