Sunburn at the Dubai Ladies Masters

Last week although the ladies of the European Tour were all sporting headgear, most of them seemed to be caught out by the heat in Dubai: pink arms and red faces all round. Seeing the TV coverage after a morning of frozen greens and keen winds, it was hard to imagine we were all on the same planet. It was an exciting competition, though, with Anika Sorenstam managing to post her first win in a while, and Laura Davies coming in joint second after some fantastic rounds.

Meanwhile we had our own prize-giving which brought its own memories of warmer days, so long ago I'd forgotten about winning the May monthly medal - amazing! - as well as two second places in Stablefords. This put me ahead of MOH in the 'prize money', though I'm proud to say we shared the Doubles championship and the two trophies have pride of place on our mantlepiece.

I was going to treat you to a seasonal photo of same, but unless Blogger's image upload system recovers, you'll have to imagine them for yourself, artistically placed among the Christmas cards.
