Day One of the ORMA Consulting Easter Golf Challenge

The first tee box at Golf De La Pree our local course

 Of course there is no need to say who has the first round advantage. We are playing stableford  and on the current deficit I am going to have to restrict Annika to only using one club for the whole of the next round.

The golf course seems to have pretty much recovered from the inundation of the storm, tempte xynthia, of February last year. One also has the feeling that it has been a pretty dry start of  he year as the golf course is very hard underfoot.

Not much else to the day; a trip to the local Intermarche for a few essential supplies and to discover what we might about the shop opening hours over the Easter weekend. There were no notices of special fete hours so I guess things are going to be "normal".

We called in at the Marsilly boulangerie for a baguette and they had some delightful easter eggs that looked just like  boiled eggs with its top cut off, very tempting.

Partly in an attempt to avoid the temptations of the french patisserie we are going to doing a bit of baking ourselves. Watch this space......
