Paddy and I had some great golf in mid June 2006 at my home club Royal St Georges at Sandwich. Honours were even in perfect conditions. The Course was set up for The Amateur Championships so it was a serious challenge.
Plenty of reminiscences and stories as you can imagine.

Message from Grant - July 2009
As you can see I have aged very well not like those old buggers on the website!! I’ve been retired for 10 years and after travel, a major renovation, shooting, Rotary and art I don’t have a lot of time to spare. I moved to Melbourne in 1995 and am now both an NZ and Australian citizen. Hope we can make it over next year and catch up.
