Judge's Report

The Avonmouth Riviera hosted the 2009 Old Boys Tour with the trendy high-flying metropolis Weston-Super-Mare (pier-less in so many ways) accommodating the party.

 

Interestingly enough the Tour participants actually arrived in the preceding month before golfing formalities cracked off due to the insistence to comply with a ridiculous early arrival policy laid down by the ginger but neatly presented Adrian Avery. Tour penance started well before this time however as the tubby tormentor found himself in front of the beak for being unable to take home raw or uncooked eggs to her indoors. Moments into the Tour it did not improve for the Leeds lager lout as Ader was reprimanded for mislaying the days scorecards, quickly followed by a charge of spreading pikey poo from an on-course ditch at Weston Golf Club (WGC). After shaking off this poor start the balding bleater had a happy-slap from Mr Disappointment when it was announced that Adrian had failed to secure a place in the Major From Glengarry pool team. After an excessive intake of Special K the wannabe Slimcea-Girl was charged with a most serious offence at Orchardleigh Golf Club (OGC). After bullying a ball from the Judge having rotundly hacked his original tee shot into deep jungle the temperamental train-spotter not only proceeded to lose the Judges ball, he failed to look for it and even failed to replace it!!! Outrageous. As ever controversy was never far away, this year in the shape of issuing a fantasy handicap to one Sean Cairney. This triggered another brush with the bench after Edgy attempted to pervert the course of justice attempting to amend Cairn’s handicap so that the Judge took the Orange Jacket after the golf had finished!!! Spontaneous cries of ang im!!!! ensued. The bulky bludgeoner had a disaster meal in the OGC clubhouse being charged for carrot hoggery masturbatory references and back garden poo stories just as Davey G was spooning gravy which parted some well earned from Adrian. Once again the traditional scant regard for room key safety featured on his crime report as did the falling asleep in every drinking establishment visited. Finally the most serious of all charges was administered for failing to provide the tearful Blucky with a prize at the final day presentation ceremony!!! So much for the quote nobody leaves empty handed from Old Boys Tours All in all a good year for the salad dodger whos behaviour caused the wastage of a full pen to enable the Judge to record the wealth of incriminating evidence on offer.

It was totally out of character when the pert postie Andrew Widdowson was called to the bench for suffering from the first hangover on Tour. Three guesses who accompanied Widdowson on the advance party to get him in that state??!! The B & B had never seen such sausage refusery at Tuesday mornings breakfast table. The beefy Blackpole bludgeoner also attracted penance after letting rip one of the most audible farts ever witnessed in the clubhouse at WGC, small mercy was that there was not a picture of HRH hanging in the WGC gallery to witness such shenanigans. The ex-Pompey playmaker was also cited for serial covering up of the Tour golf shirt at all events undertaken, poisoning Guinness with lemonade and involving non-Tourists in the guess the Open winner competition. Having a poo in a non legal toilet cost the chirpy chopper some well earned, as did the fine and ASBO administered for consistent unsociable quiz machine participation. This year’s major controversy followed the skinny show-boater in the form of multiple pointed questions from general Tourists raised against the handicap committee, considering the well hung hunk (who has a major influence over the said committee) actually ended up winning the overall Tournament!!

Being out-sunglassed by Edge + winning Tour, well done me old mucker

 

            It took the entire Tour party 3 hours to realise that the cheesy grinning ex-chomper, Darren Phillips, was actually on Tour. If it wasnt for the draught caused by the Widdowson legendary bottom burp, that fluttered the paper serviette that Big D was nestled behind, the ex-Dales pin up could have remained hidden to the naked eye for the entire Tour. Once on the course, 2009 Tour was just a never ending parade of petulance for the aerobic mad ape. The bench lay down the law for petulance on every fairway at WGC, abusing an unsuspecting 6 iron on the 6th at OGC, hacking from one bunker to another on the 15th at OGC, hacking out of bounds from the second bunker on the same hole, burying his driver in the tee on the 17th at OGC, and most serious of all, burying his putter (causing permanent green damage) on the 11th at Castlecombe Golf Club [CCGC]. The lightweight loafer found himself in the dock for failing to wear the Irish hat and Orange jacket during a pool match, for refusing a carefully prepared bounty of burgers after a pool match and for failing to respond to fellow pool team members who were consoling Carl after a nail biting frame of Weston Division 9 (South) pool. The wafer thin wayward whoosher did get off lightly when it was discovered that he was drinking halfs every night, but, the anaemic antagonist had a final rare-up when it was discovered that an un-named Judge stole some of his breakfast, reported in the now infamous poached egg-gate trial.

            Plucky pill popper David Goodhall worried the Tour party in the WGC clubhouse following a random Touretts outburst, only to pacify the entire party with the delights and artistry fresh from the magic circle, when the balding bloater miraculously made the lost golf scorecards (in a ginger capacity) re-appear out of thin air. After a potentially fatal darts near-miss (parting Edgeys eyebrows with a wayward wand) the cocky chrome domer had a series of a senior moments in a culinary capers kind of way. The devout Derby dynamo was charged with severe beer spillage in the Pavilion bar, using his trousers as a kebab drip tray and excessive carrot distribution to a well know tugger. Davey G nearly re-branded himself Davey Geek following regular temperamental referrals to the internet when attempting to prove to the handicap committee that their allocation of handicaps did not reflect the real world. At least the mardy marauder managed to secure a coveted Tour prize, after the he scooped the first to honk on Tour title, disappointing blaming the mouthwash he was addicted to for causing the pavement pizza. Tails is still casting a casual chuckle to this day over the cider swilling self elected Tour leader failure to recognise that he had surpassed the limits of his Somerset cider intake. Schoolboy error.

Over exuberant use of eyebrows on a darts okey

 

            The full figured philanthropist Jason Lee once again proved to be a slippery Tourist to sentence, always managing to stay one step ahead of the law and the chief creep. However, the bullish bin man did come unstuck when he was grassed up for taking a driver on a 168 yard Par 3 hole at WGC. After referring to the Judge as Stan, pulling Bully Beef faces on a darts okey and for being too bashful to appear on a presentation photograph, the man-bag model paid dearly. In contrast, the gas-filled gorilla managed to infiltrate every presentation ceremony with wanton releases of potent bum blasts, at one stage causing a perplexed master of ceremonies to call for the Glade and to open the top window on the latch. Most shockingly, the misled moocher lost his Tour Madness dance off title, when at DKs, the laid back legend was outmanoeuvred by a well known Japanese jiver.

Openly admitting that he needs a light on in the bedroom in order to fall asleep.....aaaahhhhh

 

Confucius say that Godzilla groupie Martin Lewis origins once again came under the spotlight, after the muscle bound master-blaster was reported for sending numerous text messages in Mandarin. This preceded some rather over-precautious parking manoeuvres in the WGC car park, as the Cantonese clot took 17 attempts to slot his roomy family saloon into an ample parking spot. As tradition dictates, the serial bridesmaid was fined for 3 counts of being late on parade, becoming obvious to the bench when it was revealed that the pampering pruners room had a free vend hair dryer, mirror and foundation application device. A couple of run-ins with the Bar had Tenko reaching for his wallet, for failing to look for the Judges ball (as lost by a well known rotund hacker), for leaving his trolley in such a position as to block a Judges approach shot and for breaking (but failing to own up to) a sacred fines pen. Oddly, the Taiwanese tormentor openly admitted to once being thrown out of the sea!!! Not sure how that works? Martin was another Tourist who fell foul to raucous rear end un-reticence as the Malay meddler was charged with exuberant gas release following camel avoidance and for trying to convince a well known Leeds lump that there was a small mammal in the undergrowth, when in fact the slant-eyed slapper was throwing a fart to create this deception. Mr Lewis did redeem himself after he easily won the Madness dance off, cutting short his celebrations as his exertions had brought on a dizzy spell so he needed to sit down for a while. Bless.

Winning the twos money at Orchardleigh and not claiming the money

 

It was a welcome return for the official Tour Strawberry Blonde, as Sugar Wilson immediately started his antics as if he had not been away. The Boris Beckers stunt double had to fit a saddle on Edgey at the WGC clubhouse, as the big fellah was on Edgey’s back disputing the early arrival for so long, there were blisters a starting. The legendary Thunderbird Lip was soon in action as the Tour top weight had a bit of a mare at WGC. He was in front of the bar for smashing a ball into Tenko’s bag (no fore shout), endangering wildfowl on the 14th at WGC (incidentally getting a two with his 2nd ball!!!), sulking for the last 6 holes at WGC thinking he was the Orange Jacket winner elect and persistently attempting to induce poor old Badger into taking the camels on every hole at WGC. However, Badger had the last laugh as the ex-Kays clonker managed to leave his ball in a bunker on the 17th at WGC. Navigation had the Strawberry slogger in the dock after his skills ended up leading the Tour party down lanes that had grass growing all over them on the way to OGC. When challenged, the ex-Dales donkey stated that he bought his Sat-Nav from Tenko and the instructions were in Mandarin!!! Oddly enough, the tubby tyrant was another Tourist charged with being thrown out of the sea, likelihood is that it took a shed-load more blokes to do so compared with Tenko. More serious allegations were to follow for the gentle giant as he was accused of wanton spending of the ball count money, persistently working on Tour and for leaving Tuckers Grave sober for the first time ever. The portly prattler did have the Tour party heart strings singing after he admitted that he was getting old in DKs, plus again, showing his age, only managed to give himself a pulled fetlock and a beer shampoo during the Madness dance off as the Bambi on Ice wannabe took a tumble still clutching his beloved pint of shandy.

            This years virgin and undisputedly best looking on Tour, Neil Grubb was a welcome addition to the Old Boys family. However, the tattooed tonker didnt do himself any favours when he not only received blatant favouritism from an un-named Leeds rotund hacker (special introduction at WGC) but also scooped the first prize on Tour (longest drive at WGC). This vexed the bar and put a look of anxiety in the eyes of fellow competitors. Allegedly, the beefy blaster gave a fine display of how hard and long to hit a golf ball, but found himself in the dock for missing a 1inch putt at his OGC top shot hole. The slim slicer compounded this further when he was fined severely for blowing up on the back 9 at OGC, blaming his ails on the fact that allegedly, his driver may be illegal which was causing him gross distraction. For not winning all the longest drive competitions, the trendy trumper was penanced, as was he for wearing a Dicky Widd cardigan and having an inferior face tattoo (compared to Gallers) in the Major From Glengarry. All in all, a very strong virgin campaign on and off the course for the Warndon walloper.

Last but not least, the Dennis Priestley stand in Pete Williams found himself in deep water early doors after being cited for being the only non-Boughton GC member in the WGC clubhouse, plus, trying to show off and speak Russian to a waitress, only to find out she was Lithuanian!! The pitch and putt plonker, as with the calamity Chelsea chopper, was also charged for using a Tenko supplied Sat-Nav and for playing golf with a beach ball up his jumper. In fact golf had the legal lump in the dock on several more occasions when fined for cheap watch syndrome (looking for a lost ball for more than 15 minutes), attempting to fell trees with a golf ball, missing 3 putts from inside a foot at CCGC and for impersonating a Belson inmate whilst playing golf (haircut only). Worryingly, the ex-Northwick nutter was placed on suicide watch on the 18th at OGC, following the audible debate, jostling and scuffling in connection with the Cairney fantasy handicap incident, barely raising a smile at Edgey as he peered haplessly over a mountain of over-cooked carrots. The pub The Major From Glengarry proved to be a graveyard for the chubby crock as he was fined for thinking his adopted pool name was Alan when in fact it was Alex, winning the darts money despite turning pro 20 years ago and for over-use of his Stan Ogden impressions at a darts okey. The penal perpetrator was lambasted for bringing far too many clothes on a short Tour, being unable to order his own eggs at breakfast and most shockingly of all, purchasing an extra large donor kebab, nursing it all the way back to hotel only to throw it in the bin and tuck into an unsuspecting mini-box of Kelloggs Frosties.

Some Tourists were unable to participate for the full week, but their efforts to come for as long as possible are recognised and appreciated As their time was short, the entries in the fines book can be few and far between, so here are the best ofs for the late arrivals.

 

Having more tattoos than the Edinburgh Festival, Tour animal Lea Bluck did manage to gain fines book entries for failing to reach the ladies tee on the 16th at OGC, being unable to fathom out how to fill in a golf scorecard for Cairney, failing to complete showboat press-ups to intimidate local VIs in DKs and for failing to administer a taser on Wilse during the entire week. However, the benchs thanks go out to the muscular mammoth for his excellent treasury qualities on the Friday night in Weston.

Ex-jankers Paul Matthews as with previous Tours again kept his distance from the bench. However, the charmless crock did pay penance for no orange jacket appearance on the first night of Tour (2008 carry over), failing to wear womens underwear on Tour, 4 counts of severe tree abuse with a golf ball, swearing more than Tiger Woods  wife and scant regard for a fellow Tourists welfare as the balding bumbler left Pinky at the mercy of the Brizol chavs on the M5.

This month’s centrefold in Wookie World, Andrew Watkins was on Tour long enough for the bench to charge the fur-balled felon for several buggy related charges. The listless lefty was cited for failing to display the correct Im slowing down hand signals, which resulted in him being violated up the rear end by a virgin, for driving a golf buggy left handed and for causing a golf buggy to list excessively towards the drivers side. Strangely, the clumsy cacky hander was in front of the bar for addressing and attempting to hit a lump of foam instead of a golf ball on the fairway at CCGC. Disappointingly, the Perdiswell perpetrator was charged with failing to video the traditional tonsil tennis on a well know Worcester driveway.

            Mr Backswing himself Sean Cairney was another previous Tourist to be welcomed back to the Avonmouth Riviera, that was after watching an episode of his favourite TV show, Most Haunted. After being bullied and intimidated by ladies on the 18th at OGC, the Wolves *anker jumped straight into a legal cauldron, ably assisted by a well known Harry Hill impersonator, trying to uplift a fantasy handicap into the realms of Avatar. The boss eyed bungler fell into more legal trouble after his cider drink-athon at Tuckers Grave with Taylor (which included a bout of behind the bar help yourself, nobodys watching) culminating in late arrival at DKs and abandonment of a fellow Tourist in need of urgent assistance (mouthwash syndrome). For wearing trainers in a golf clubhouse, the ex-Ronksy rebel drew penance, as did he (unbelievably) for having the biggest eyes on Tour, yet being unable to find one single drive that Grubby smashed down the fairway.

Failing to reach the ladies tee in 3 shots – 11th at OGC

 

            Not much more can be said about the Brizol bonehead Steve Jenkins than this years Tour was a bit of a shitter for the pint sized pumper. The geriatric gurner vexed the bench for failing to attend a  Tour in his own back yard, failing to provide suitable translation services, scant regard for Tour packing (only 1 pair of pants), being the most illegible on Tour and most serious of all, allowing a washing machine to prevent him from attending Tour. This years major incident and top legal financial reward once again involved the Blackthorn swilling buffoon follow a certain incident where the accused followed through, but this incident in no way involved a golf swing. Contamination was reported to be of epic proportions, with the poo patrol hotline inundated with callers requesting the services of the pooper scooper squad. Affected items included, room wallpaper, room lampshade, room waste bin, room bath, room door handles (3), room carpet, Cairneys suitcase, Paddys jeans, socks, shoes, baseball cap, travel clock, one copy of Hustler magazine, Snow White DVD, copy of how to look good in platform shoes book, medium sized Smurf and a packet of wine gums. However, the doolally dwarf had the last laugh when he returned on the last day to take the Burnham title.

Involuntary gurning whilst shitting himself!!! J (gets into the Judges Tour Top 5 Favourite Fines ever)

 

            Worcester Warriors maniac Kev Truby was a belated virginal arrival, making his entrance for the final windswept round at Burnham GC. The Judge was angered and penalised the spendthrift slapper after he brashly requesting petrol money from the fines kitty. The bench saw this in a dim light and as a feeble attempt to take over the sacred tighter than a baby hippos arse mantle from a well known serial slimmer. The Guinness swilling gonad was also pulled up for wearing a rugby shirt out of season, not breaking down on the M5 and for raising the average age of the Tour by 7 months.

Legendary lost ball guess.....

 

            Serial sick note Steve Matthews was, like Trubes, another belated virginal arrival. Unlike Trubes though, the lippy leprechaun did not manage to keep a low profile until finding his Tour feet. He not only attracted legal attention, but the attention of a well-known ex-Anchor regular by accusing the said tippler of being Ginger. Only to cover his bases (and safety) by sucking up to a well known Hindlip beefcake by excessively complimenting the array of tattoos on view, accompanied with the massively predicable question of did it urt? In the melee that followed, the dinky doughnut managed to lose his sacred Tour ID card, which resulted in an embarrassing attempt at an on the head pint, as the top of the pint glass was level with the top of the accused head. Also, unlike Trubes, the chatty chopper allegedly raised the average age of the Tour by 3.7 years.

So there we have it, Tour number 8 over and out. The Bar would like to pass on their congratulations to the 2009 Tour victor, Mr Andrew Widdowson, and also pass on thanks to all the organisers who make Tour such a splendid and enjoyable event. Tenby, July 2010 will hold court for the City Old Boys next encounter. Please remember, the contents of this report are not intended to offend.
