Paul Shaw followed Paul Hack up the podium steps in the premier flight, but it could easily have been the other way round as Paul (Shaw that is) hit 2 tee shots out of bounds, resulting in a no-scoring hole.
Kevin McEntee.
A triumvirate of players vied for the third spot as Co. Wicklow man Terry ‘pork chop; Mangan filled the spot in the resulting count back as he sidelined Ian Ashenden, Peter ‘the right honorable’ LeNoury and Mike Riley.
Terry Dutson’s carded an excellent 39 points in B Flight but given the mathematics of Dave Driscoll’s back nine, it meant Terry’s score was only good for the silver.
Pierre the ‘magician’ Bietry needed all his luck to take the remaining podium place as he and David Foulk and Ireland’s John Heaney all tied on 37 points.
Terry Mangan, Mark Ripley, Gary Blackburne. Thierry Petrement, Dave Boran, Yui Bietry and Peter Henshaw divvied up the 2’s pot.
Monday, March 11, Pattana B&C – Stableford
1st Kevin McEntee (7) 36pts
2nd Peter Hynard (13) 35pts
3rd Ian Ashenden (0) 35pts
With the balance of the week fearing Songkran was a coming and thinking about golf tours a planning, it was a small but spirited field that took to Pattana. The bad news was that Co. Offaly Gang leader Kevin ‘you know who’ snuck off with the heaviest bag of loot as he was the only man to equal par. (The good news is Matt ‘Dillon’ Doyle, Kevin’s right hand man, has returned to the Emerald Isle).
Old friend Ian Ashenden, the senior teaching pro at the KLGCC Malaysia, was on a brief visit to his friends at Lewiinski’s and for the second time in as many games he went to a count back with Peter ‘the right honorable’ Hynard, both a stroke in arrears of the winner. Peter was not intimidated as he took the silver
No 2’s so rollover on Wednesday.

Watch out for those guys playing their last round of a vacation. Mikko Mutanen won the day, as so many before him have on get away day, as he was the only player to better his handicap with 37 points. He also made off with the rollover 2’s pot.
Kevin ‘you know who’ played with great success as he made it two pay window visits on the trot to take second and this left Mark Butler to tidy up the flight on 33 points
In B Flight, ‘the donkey’ was well and truly in the shafts with 35 points as he was sandwiched between Peter ‘Don O’corleone’ Henshaw’s solid par round and fellow Irishman John Heaney on 32 points.

2nd Mike Jeffreys (19) 32pts
3rd Colin Davis (16) 31pts
Kevin ‘you know who’ McEntee, one of the finest players to come from Co. Offaly Ireland, and certainly one of the most consistent golfers in Pattaya over the many years he has played here, was his usual quite self as he led the field with a flawless 40 points. Kevin was nonplussed by the Greenwood layout as he left second and third place to Steve Gibson’s 37 points and Gordon ‘K-O’ Kerr on 35 points.
Kevin, never one to do things by halves, also picked up the 2’s pot.
Last week’s title boy Freddy Starbeck started were A Flight finished with 35 points but it was good for a three point victory over Mike ‘the welsh Wizard’ Jeffreys. The third flight place was sorted by count back between ‘the donkey’ and Liverpool’s Ray Fortis, ‘the donkey’ filled the last spot but drove his van back to Lewiinski’s minus his hubcaps.
