Day 176 - Jubilee Goblets IV

Well - I was clearly too pessimistic and underestimated Tesla Motors' service levels... by 10:30 this morning my car had been brought to me at home so that, for a brief moment, we had not one but two red cars on the drive...  Looked pretty cool!

Duly charged, I was off to the golf club this afternoon for our latest round of Jubilee Goblets matches.  This time, the Lady Captain and I were matched against Simon and Gill - and for the first time ever, we found ourselves in the unusual position of actually giving two shots over the round...  Not that they needed them!  We chose to play the New Course as all seemed very quiet.

It was soon clear that we were in trouble: Gill was driving splendidly and Simon was accurate off the deck - and they could chip and putt too....  We managed a couple of excellent pars on the longer holes, but apart from that we were outclassed.  We ended up on the losing side by 5&3, but carried on regardless.  The 18th hole summed it all up: an excellent chip by Diana gave us the par, after which Gill holed her putt from the other side of the green for a birdie!

This means that we have two more rounds to register our first win...
