Ken’s Korner - February 2013 Fellow Nomads, January just seemed to fly in and bluster out and before you had a chance to say “white rabbit”. February's already upon us and almost complete in the process being a busy month with Boland's 20th Anniversary nicely inter-spaced between January's Game at Humewood and February's OMIPSA game at “The Hill”. Six of us represented Eastern Cape at Boland's Anniversary celebration. The trip down with VC Stuart at the wheel and youngsters Pat Phillips and Roy Skinner bickering in the back seat was something else altogether. Langkloof and a customary stop at Robbie's Sex Shoppe in the Klein Karoo with the barometer at 40oC was a welcome relieve. We made it in time for the welcome cocktail party and friendships were renewed over a few cold “frosties” and pizzas from the Stellbosch GC oven!! The Anniversary dinner was held under the stars at Hansie van Niekerk's Knorhoek Wine Estate and proved to be an amazing success even if the wind did bluster a little. The next day's game at Stellenbosch proved a challenge for just about everyone and there were no Eastern Cape mention in the prize-list. I had the honour of playing against Alten Hulme, Boland Captain, and if I remember correctly, wound up paying a little for the priviledge. Great hospitality and a great time had by all. February's monthly game at Port Elizabeth Golf Club included our annual OMIPSA challenge and I must apologize for the poor communication of the format for the day. A decision was taken to simplify the scoring by simply adding the 2 scores together. This was not well communicated for which I must shoulder the blame. There was some concern that playing off Nomads handicaps would adversely affect our qualifiers in the Regional and National events. Nomads handicaps will have no bearing in future events as both the Regional and National events use an average of the qualifier's past 2-year handicaps with a maximum 20% variation allowed for recent changes. My thanks to all that entered the OMIPSA competition on the day. Our 39 pairs earned us two entries and best of luck to Cobus, Peter,
