Paris Duffers at Burford Golf Links

Here is Steve and his mom Marie who actually looks like a barely older sister. You look great Marie keep up whatever you’re doing as you almost look younger than your son.

Friday September 12th Paris men’s golf results...

With only one week to go, there’s a tie at the top of the leaderboard between Doug Sinclair and Gerry Hoogstraten, as luck would have it they’re playing head-to-head next week to decide the overall championship.

MVP

Sorry, I’m a couple weeks late with this, but it is Steve Cruickshank traveled 1700 miles to visit his lovely mother on her birthday! (see photo).

Winners of the milk:

Congratulations are in order for the victorious pairs of Gerry Hoogstraten and Al Oldroyd, Terry Brown and Billy Beechey, Larry and Jerry Heath, and Fred Gavin and Dirk Diggler.

Shot of the day:

Was a putt by Pat Fergus that was anywhere between 12 feet and 87 ft depends on who you talk to. We went right to the horse’s mouth on this and Fergie says it was 71 foot …editor’s note. I do not believe there is a green 71 feet in diameter at Burford, oh well it’s Golf.

Quote of the day:

The quote machine Dino Kitchen is at it again, when he was referring to his playing partner he said “Stones is a type of guy to give you his shirt right off his back… The only thing is it might be yours in the first place” thank you for all that jocularity Dino!

Good guy award: 

Gary and Greig Graham were seen down at the south end retirement home entertaining the residence as was the three wise men or the Three Stooges depends on how you look at it…Dino, Brownie and Fever but there was a little bugaboo at the end of the visit as the Head nurse, Miss Cratchett, thought Brownie was a resident and tried to put him in his room. Dino and Fever, his personal lawyers, got him out of this mix up.

Tip of the hat:

Goes to avid Paris Independent reader, Dr. Bob the foot doctor at the Hub who does fine work up there and promised ole Scoop he’ll be dancing in no time.

This is Scoop Stewart signing off. Always a pleasure!
