The Celts celebrated their September championship last Sunday at La Serena. Weather conditions were blowy, and this impacted on some of the scores. To Miguel and the green-keeping staff you all have to be congratulated on the condition of the greens and fairways, fantastic. To Gloria and the team in the restaurant muchisimo gracias.
To Jean and Cristina many thanks for all your assistance in returning our tournament scores to Madrid. Every month we thank the competitions committee for organising the tournaments. Players literally have just to turn up on the day and set off on their round. Well done, Camillus, Terry, and Philip.
