Whitecraigs Poem
REPORT DELIVERED BY ELSPETH BUICK AND KAY MURRAY AT WHITECRAIGS AGM 26TH OCTOBER 2004

bullet

In 2005, our Centenary year
In the Daily Mail Foursomes we had to appear
To represent Whitecraigs, an honour I'd say
I hoped I'd play well - and so did Kay.
 

bullet

Our first round was at East Ren
And on that day, it teemed with rain,
But on the eighteenth we won the day.
I played well - and so did Kay
 

bullet

Then, with luck, we had a bye
And into the third round we did fly.
Then Kilmacolm, they couldn't play
So luck was with me — and with Kay.
 

bullet

Our next round was at Old Ranfurly,
A course that makes your hair turn curly!
With three down and five to play
I won on the last - and so did Kay.
 

bullet

At last at home we had a game,
Against Loudoun Gowf we sought fame.
An easy victory went our way.
Again I played well - and so did Kay.
 

bullet

The next at Torrance House we went
At the twentieth hole we were totally spent.
But pleased with ourselves, I have to say.
I played exceptionally well - and so did Kay.
 

bullet

Our seventh match against Uphall
And then we really had a ball
Winning 7 and 5, we made hay.
I putted well - and so did Kay.
 

bullet

And so to Bristol off we flew
With Harry and Sandy, our confidence grew,
Backed by our friends, Sandra and Gay
I prayed I'd play well - and so did Kay

bullet

On Sunday we played in a practice round,
And Harry's clubbing proved very sound.
We played with ladies from Dundee's Abertay.
I played well - and so did Kay.

bullet

Our first round was against Cowdry Park
Who played off 1 and 6, not such a lark.
Being 3 down, inspiration we sought,
I played badly — but Kay did not.

bullet

Our supporters, too, weren't doing well,
Sandra tripped over her feet and Gay as well fell.
Sandy had flu and cared not a jot,
I played badly - but Kay did not.

Then two rounds of foursomes to win some champagne,
Not a drop passed our lips, I'm sad to proclaim,
But from 1800 entrants I think we did well,
I'll still play with you Kay - I'll still play with you El.

bullet

To all our supporters and the Whitecraigs Club
Thanks to you all - but here is the rub.
We've won the foursomes again, on that we're not coy,
We'll win the Cup next year - at Dalmahoy!
