VALENTINE'S DINNER
Saturday 13th February saw Valentine's Day celebrated at L.G.C. Mr Captain (a sucker for a rose) joined the ladies present as they all received the romantic gesture before dining. A double choice, three course meal was served to beautifully dressed tables as you can see and entertainment was provided by Decades Discos from 8pm. A delightful enhancement to the evening was provided by Lindsay Allen's guests who put on an energetic show of modern jive/salsa as they danced the night away.

CONGRATULATIONS TO THE LADIES MAIL ON SUNDAY TEAM
Congratulations should go to our ladies who defeated Astbury in the first round of this year's Mail on Sunday National Competition. The match was played at Leek on Saturday 13th February. It was a very close affair.
Jayne Baxter (12) beat Jan Davey (15) 1 up
Joy Briggs (20) drew with Chris Westrup (9)
Karen Wilshaw (19) beat Sue Warren (19) 3 and 2
Ann Titley (22) lost to Alison Barton (19) 2 and 1
Georgie Taylor ( 5) lost to Jane Pickup (11) 7 and 6
As it was all square at 2 1/2 each the rules state that the team's number 5 players have to then go down the 19th on a sudden death basis play-off. So off Georgie and Jane went and the match was settled on the 21st when Georgie won the hole. Very, very well done to Georgie who admitted that in the match she had not played well but dug in in the play-off , and all credit to the great player she is, she battled on to win on the 21st hole.
Well done to everyone and good luck in the next round.
A really big thank you must go to John Turner and his team for all their hard work in getting the course in such good condition to allow this game to take place, especially as the weather has been so cruel to us. A big thank you John.
Another thank you to our chef for the excellent refreshments after the game. The bread was so nice. The best we have ever had. Thanks John and your team
