| OF/OI Golf: Porter's Team wins to level the series |
Last Updated: Tuesday, 20 June 2006
|
 A dozen OFs, recruited once again by our Captain Norman Porter, took on the might of the Old Ipswichians at Woodbridge Golf Club on Monday 19th June and emerged victorious.
After a less than successful outing last year, Norman had given us very firm instructions about winning convincingly, and this obviously did the trick as we won 5-1 to level the Series 2-2 (for the modern era).

| Two OFs receive Bronze Medals at Melbourne Games |
Last Updated: Saturday, 17 June 2006
|
 Mike Garnett R54-56 and Bob Munro R56-60 were both
awarded Bronze Medals at the conclusion of the Commonwealth Games held in
Melbourne during March. But sadly not for any sporting achievment, but for work as volunteers, part of the 15,000 strong 'Aqua
Army' who helped keep the whole thing running smoothly before, during and
indeed after the main athletic events.

| West of England Supper - Off to a good start |
Last Updated: Friday, 26 May 2006
|
 Chris Essex (K 69-75) writes: "After a break of around 14 years, a West of England Supper was held at the Lamb Inn at Hindon on Saturday 13th May 2006. The Lamb Inn has been a public house since the 12th century and the dining room was a lovely setting for our 3-course meal, which was chosen on the evening.
With probably the widest geographical spread of any UK based supper; prospective OFs were invited from Cornwall across to Hampshire and Gloucestershire down to Dorset. In total 160 OFs were contacted (some up to 4 times!), of which 10 attended and an encouraging further 60 replied saying that unfortunately they couldn’t attend this time but wished to be invited again next time. We were also delighted to be accompanied by 7 wives, making a total of 17 in all".

 Norman Porter, our indefatigable General Secretary and Editor, has set up a new family entertainment venture for OFs, their families and (we hope) members of the College 6th Form. On offer at Cretingham Golf Club (click the link for their website) will be golf (18 holes and/or a pitch-&-putt competition), tennis, boules, table-football and a barbecue. Golf will get under way at 11.00am at a cost of £10.00 and the BBQ will start at 3.00pm and go on and on (we hope) at a cost of £7.50 a head.
If you'd like more details, or to register your interest, please Email Norman Porter.

On Saturday 3rd June we met the Old Lawrentians at Bisley for our All Day match for the Lizard Goblet. Pride meant we had to retain the trophy that we'd won last year to salvage something from our previously unsuccessful season.
