2 DECEMBER 2021, ISLAND COURSE, SICC Again, registration was pleasantly over-subscribed. This truly warmed the cockles of the Golf Committee’s hearts. The weather teased golfers who teed-off on the early flights but then, the Weather God is an old golf kaki who has a soft spot for the SCC golfers. He knew that many of us were golf-starved for too long and since we paid quite a few dollars to play at SICC, he favoured SCC golfers with a light drizzle to cool our nerves and waves of fresh breeze to keep us calm, our putting hand steady and our head down. Indeed, we had all the ingredients for a truly enjoyable afternoon golf! Our loyal fan club of macaque groupies were on hand at several holes. They knew that we had to leave our buggies parked on track while we walked to our balls on the course. These kind groupie cousins nonchalantly helped themselves to our beer, snacks and small towels in our buggy. It was certainly quite a fun rare sight to see a band of near punch-drunk staggering monkeys crisscrossing the fairways. I am happy to report that no monkey was injured by a stray SCC golf ball. Dinner was a safe distanced quiet and copiously supported dinner affair at Kola Restaurant. The six-course meal was brilliant. Can you spot yourself in the photos? Cheers!
