It’s been a busy week for charity Golf events (honest – we do actually do work), and there was a few big names playing yesterday at the Mearns Castle Golf Academy, including our 2 playing partners from Rock Radio – Ciaran O’Toole (Father Ted) and the legend that is Tom (The Beard of Doom) Russell.  

The Golf was a little better than last week (I didn’t even lose 1 ball!), and Kenny walked off with the “closest to the pin” prize…  and the after-game entertainment was first class – helped by the fact that we were a close runner up in Billy Sloan’s music quiz (mainly thanks to the vast musical knowledge of Tom!).

Well done to everyone concerned with the event – it rasied a good deal of money for a very worthy charity.

Hosted at the impressive Bishopbriggs Golf Club, the event is one of many by the Cash for Kids team, with the purpose of raising money for local disadvantaged kids.  It was a superb day, aided by the “4th man” we were given for our team – Celtic Legend (and all round nice guy) Joe McBride

As for the golf….  well – everyone played well – except for me.  Probably the worst game I’ve had in years, but to be fair - I had a bit of a bad neck (my story, and I’m sticking to it).  We didn’t win any prizes, unless of course you count my lucky win in the raffle!!   We’re already looking forward to next year’s event!
