The match was held on 4 May 00 and was very successful from both the playing,
and the social point of view.
Congratulations to all our players who played excellent team golf, we recorded
a record-breaking win that our opponents accepted with very good grace (quote
from their captain Ian Robinson when thanking Stowmarket for the standard of
catering - "This is the second time today my team have been stuffed"). Ian Robinson
has suggested that we should have a trophy for the match to be held by the winning
team each year. To start the idea off, he presented me as, BT team captain,
with a sauce bottle! This for me sums up the friendly spirit in which this game
is always played.
Many thanks to all who supported the event, I only hope you enjoyed your day
as much as I did.

The +15 is not a typo ! Well played George.]
