John Reddish won the first tournament of this year, beating Ken Cooke in final marked with early season errors. The holder Mark Ormerod was unable to compete this year as he was detained in New York by ash cloud trouble, but we still had 11 competitors with two vistors from London clubs, and one far country member from Cheltenham.

On a week-end of constant spring sunshine, Tim Dutton managed us all in his usual relaxed style, and found time to barbeque our lunch as well, with Simon Whiteley as his sous-chef. A splendid way for everyone to get their season under way.
