Papal Golf Tour 2006

For all those who couldn't make here are all the photos of the Papal Golf trip to the Belle Dunes. Started badly with the one thing the organisers couldn't control, the weather, being appauling, but could only get better.

All looking extra keen just before the off. What they didn't know was what was before them!!

The final checks before the off. Will 25 balls be enough?

Is there a funny smell round here?

Still looking very refreshed after probably the longest course in the World.

All looking slim 'n trim after the 8 mile trek.

The stragglers. Finally complete the course after a hectic journey. Ferry? No Tunnel, no Ferry, no back to the tunnel.

Now thats what we have all been waiting for!!!

I think this speak is still going on!!!

Beaujolais anyone?

Our special last minute guest.

Longest drive anyone? No prize this year better luck next time Jonny!!

Nothings that funny, surely?

Now which button makes it flash???

All very civilized.

Here he is, our overall champion of the day. Brophy looking very proud to be this year's plate winner, also getting closest to the pin.

No arguing this year.

The calm before the storm. A very wet storm at that!!!
