It is with great sadness to report the death of Eric Tully. To say Eric was an active member of Peanuts would be an understatement. His enthusiasm new no bounds. His golf, his humour and wit round the table after the golf were without parallel.
He was a big man in every sense of the word and will be remembered by those who new him for a long time. His stories and exploits have been repeated many times since he left Tenerife and returned to Scotland.
Our sincere condolences go to Margaret and his family.
RIP Eric

PLEASE NOTE LOCAL RULE RELATING TO THE ROCKY AREAS WHICH ARE NOW PART OF THE COURSE.
The Official Guide to the Rules of Golf (R&A/USGA) state that
Golf clubs and committees can adopt local rules when local conditions require special provisions.
This is a wording to cater for the new rocky areas which we are told are considered part of the course.
If your ball is in a rocky area you may take relief for one penalty stroke by using one of the following options:
-
Stroke-and-Distance Relief – Go back to where the previous stroke was made and play again.
-
Back-on-the-Line Relief – Drop a ball as far back as you want on a line going straight back from the hole through the point where the ball last crossed the edge of the rocky area.
-
Lateral Relief – Drop a ball within two club lengths of the point where the ball last crossed the edge of the rocky area, not nearer the hole.
WITH EFFECT 1ST.NOVEMBER WE HAVE TO SEND THE LIST OF PLAYERS TO GDS 3 WEEKS IN ADVANCE, SO PLEASE ENSURE YOU HAVE YOUR NAME DOWN TO PLAY.
TO ASSIST PLAYERS WHO WANT TO CONTACT EACH OTHER TO ARRANGE ALTERATIVE TEE TIMES MIKE KIRCHIN HAS OFFERED TO SET UP A WHATSAPP CHAT GROUP. IF YOU WANT TO JOIN IT PLEASE SEND YOUR NUMBER TO MIKE AT
