Here we are again. After the sucess in Scotland its time for us to leave our B&B Aslar House in North Street and absolute must for anyone staying in St Andrews. The welcome from Stan Hastie and his wife Mary was sensational a truly brilliant guest house. Stan and Mary just couldnt do enough for us, a stones through from the shops and Old Course FANTASTIC!
We left Scotland on Friday to start our journey south in time for the British Par 3 at Nailcote Hall on Tuesday. On route we visited our good friends and TSG captain Ian and Karen Halliwell. This was a special visit to Hawes to celebrate the opening of Karens gift and craft shop Karian Crafts in Milkchurn Cottage Hawes. A lovely dales villiage and Karens shop is a must for all visitors. Our best wishes with all the luck in the world goes out to them for this venture. We are truly jealous and its made us think of plans for ourselves
Not only were we going to the British Par 3 to defend our title but also to launch Ians book 'Living the Dream'. An inspiration for all readers Well done Ian. A great read for all espeically the pages on which I feature LOL.
Now to the golf. We didnt know who our celebrity for Tuesdays round was going to be until that morning but what a pleasure it was when we found out it was Mark Murphy the winner of Big Break in America, and Irish European Tour golfer. Was he ready for team TSG, Peg,Ian and Skitty in florescent pink polo shirts, me with one leg, Ian on top form and Skitty trying to keep all in control.

Mark was really playing well peppering the pins, Skitty was playing out of his skin. Me and Ian played well also making us the team to beat at -16.
Being an earlier tee off we had to wait all day as the rest of the results came in. Triumphant once more winners two years running Bob Champion in 2011 and now the one and only Mark Murphy in 2012 will we be abloe to make it 3 ??
I have to say Nailcot was playing exceptional the work that Rick and Sue have put in over the last 12 months has paid dividends. Great work well done to you both.

We enjoyed the next two days. I caddied for Ian and we soaked up the fantastic atmospher of the Par 3 event.
Wednesday evenings cabaret was a particular highlight for me when I was dragged on to stage by Bobby Davro. A brilliant entertainer and a fantastic evening had by all. I had the last laugh as Bobby took the micky of me limping and then I showed him my false leg and stuck it in the air. To say he was stuck for words was an understatement. Thank you Bobby I had a great time.
Thanks to Rick and Sue at Nailcot, Farmfoods and Champions for a great event as always and to Ian and Karen Halliwell for the kind invite.
