2019 at Portsea GC: The Final Standings

From the moment we all stepped into the clubhouse in our white pants, the Portsea Golf Club knew they were hosting something special. The weather threatened early, but in true PM fashion, it was a serene Spring/Winter (Sprinter?) day.

Here are some of the highlights from the weekend:​

• The Beanies - I had my doubts, but happy to see their popularity!

• Portsea Hotel - the big table. Oysters Kilpatricks & Panhead IPAs

• The selection of classic mens interest magazines at Martins Lane

• Brett's Grand Marnier

• The Ashes coverage

• A new record of $720 raised for charity

• The Round 23 Gallery at Portsea GC Clubhouse

• The Butterscotch Schnapps... a winner in the absence of Port?

• The team shirts and white pants - simply superb.

• 7 teams within 4 shots of each other.

• The introduction of Stevie's BBQ competitor - PT Burger!

• Dougie and his bloody fireworks

Great work by all, and thanks to all of my helpers & cleaners over the weekend - it is very much appreciated! Next year it's a brand new course on the Peninsula, and most likely a Sorrento Hotel Dinner - watch this space! - JB
