THE new captains at Drayton Park, near Abingdon, brought back memories of the silent cinema age when they dressed up as the Laurel and Hardy comedy duo for their drives into office.
Men’s captain David Hole added to the merriment of the occasion by hooking his drive out of bounds, to hoots of laughter.
However, Pat Hale, the new ladies’ captain played it straight down the middle.
The captains, who are pictured right in their costumes, elected charities are Diabetes UK and Cystic Fibrosis for which they are hosting a charity golf day at the club on Friday, May 20.
