The Largey Classic 98

At the Whitley Bay Country Club

The day begins with alfresco lunch....

Annie, Matt, Jenny, Largey, Claire and Dave masticate furiously

in front of the fish and chip shop.  The others were arrested

shortly before this photograph was taken.

Lynne demonstrates prowess with the rounders bat.  Dave, us usual, thinks

that it's all a bit too much...

Sexually enraged by the sight of Chris' bum, Clive make a lunge...

Meanwhile, Basil imitates a dog having a pee...

After some healthy exercise playing rounders on the beach, Clive proudly holds his ball.

  And finally....on to the Classic itself !

With due obeisance* from the other competitors

Professor Stewart Fotheringham opens the proceedings

Stewart takes the opening shot of the 1988 Classic, observed closely

by Andy and Jenny.  Basil and Deborah seem less interested in the proceedings.

Competitors in the Classic find that their performance is considerably enhanced

by the addition of C₂H₅OH to the bloodstream.

Ever the master of pitch and putt, Stewart prepares to belt his ball to oblivion

In spite of a terrible accident with his colostomy bag, an intrepid

competitor plays on...

A textbook example of golfing excellence.  Pity she used a hang-gliding textbook...

Stewart admires Ian's expertise in a tricky "bunker" situation...

Ian mistakes his ball for Basil...

Rachel continues to take a keen interest in things from cans
