Maxitours at pristine Preston

Head green keeper Jonny Roberts prepared the golf course to a tremendous standard today and all players really enjoyed this classic parkland course.

‘That’s a Terrific track!’ Reported Prestbury’s Phil Singh.

‘Fantastic.’ Declared Peter Maher.

‘Those greens were amazing.’

‘What a lovely course. I worked around the corner for ten years and never played it –I didn’t know what was I missing!’ Announced Paul Price.

Andy Parrington had a first today when he rolled in a birdie on the 17th to secure 4 points but didn’t appear on the card as team mates Andy Strickley and Andy Taylor had made superb birdies before him. The team finished in 4th .

Third place went to Mick Mahon, Dave Westwood, Richard Palmer and John Farnsworth. The Lancastrians love playing here as its only a stones throw from their Blackburn base. The showers didn’t bother Farnsworth as he was proudly wearing his new Galvin Green waterproof top. He got it at a great price as the colour was so bad no one else would buy it.

It’s a big day for the Royal family tomorrow.

But it was Rob Blain who played like a right Charlie at Preston today. His team finished last with 68 points.

Dave Monk and his Birchwood team took 2nd place with an exceptional 88 points. Barry Wilson, Simon Wilkinson and John Lynsky were in the team.

‘I’ve played golf for fifty years on most courses in the North West but had never played Preston. I am delighted to tick this one off and to get a second place is unbelievable!’ Reported eighty year old Lynsky.

Sergeant major Jimmy McEwan(6) is a tough lad but he was close to tears after his first ever Maxitours victory today. He teamed up with window cleaner Jack Parry(13)and Engineers Kian Price(8) and Ste Woods(11). Jimmy holed his approach on index 1 third hole as the team played both nines in an impressive 46 points.

Brilliant golf from the very likeable Ashton in Makerfield quartet. They are coronated as Champions this week.

Thanks to everyone for your support. I hope you had a great day!

Tim.
