Dumkins tells the story of the Golf Day…….

The Annual Pickwick Golf Day once again took place on the
magnificent Harpenden Common Golf Course on Thursday
16th June. This really is an event for everyone from
complete beginners (like me), to professionals alike. The hot
coffee and bacon rolls fortified everyone for the start of play and we had split tee times
with some of us starting on the 10th to speed the process up! A mixed weather day meant
that while it was warm and sunny we had to keep dodging some heavy rain showers, but this
didn’t dampen a great day! From memory there were around 12 members and 28 guests
making it a thoroughly entertaining day.

Tim West/Crandyke Cup
Dumkins/Jinkins Balls

Tim West, whom some of you will know or remember as one of
our long term trumpeters at out luncheons was my guest, and he
posted the best score of the day, match this with my dire
performance of the worst score, possibly in Pickwick Golf Day
history, resulted in Tim getting the Crandyke Cup guest trophy and myself the Jinkins
Balls Trophy. This gave me the dubious honour of getting my name on both the winners and

Smithers Wins!
