End of Summer Ball 2009 - Cook Island, Mullacott Cross

If you weren’t there then you ought to be ashamed of yourselves it was probably the best one yet and it was great. The band JESTERBONES were fantastic.... loud wasn’t the word.... The food was superb, the raffle was endless and the beer went down well.... Everyone made the free bus up to cook island except Greg and George who obviously can’t tell the time!
As usual there is never enough time to get everything done and enjoy the night with my family and friends so GREG ROBINSON and ASHLEY BRAUNTON have been given the job of organising next years
event at cook island so WATCH OUT.........
A big thanks goes out to `JESTERBONES`, STEVE + LISA from cook island all our sponsors and everyone who donated prizes towards the raffle, and not forgetting everyone who came. I need to say a big thanks to my wife Hayley, Ashley and Lilly who sorted the bus, raffle and me out on the night.... xxxxx.
Greg treated us to a rap which was unforgettable and hilariously funny, not that he remembered much about it the following day...
The hangovers were abundant the next day and for once I was fine and raring for breakfast which cook island put on and shouldn’t be missed if you’re passing. We even had a guest appearance from 007 himself suited and booted of course... or was it really Chris Dyer in fancy dress... smart as...
Well done to all of the league competitors and all the trophy winners of 2009!
Big thanks again to all the clubs sponsors.

League #4 Results and Report
SAUNTON SUN 11TH OCT.
A totally different day from Saturday, cloudy with fine rain and the surf was 3ft and choppy.
Twenty four Hotdoggers turned out on a cold morning and cracked on with the last league event for 2009 which is sponsored by SECOND SKIN and ERRANT SURF TRAVEL a big thanks to Andy Schollick and Chris Thomson.
I would also like to thank CHRISTIES ESTATES and Paul and Lucy from Saunton beach car park for allowing us to use the beach.
Mike Stevens cooked up fifty hotdogs in the back of his van which went down really well with everyone and it has been decided to do it at all of the contests next year..... Looking forward to that! Yummmmmmmm!
Juniors Zak and Oscar must have been on a mission this weekend as they finished in exactly the same apots as the day before, meanwhile in the open... Greg Robinson blew out in the semi final. Probably the beers eh mate! Too much makes for sore head.....
Well done Greg Norman and Chris Brunt for making the open finals and big congratulations also to two masters who made their first final, Andre Green and Chris Dyer. Also making a grand appearance in his first final was Will Martin, about time! It’s been a long time coming boys and it goes to prove that EVERY DOG HAS ITS DAY.
Well done to everyone.
Norm.

League #3 Results and Report
3RD SECOND SKIN/ERRANT SURF TRAVEL LEAGUE CONTEST.
SAUNTON SAT 10TH OCT.
Well, finally we got a day of sunshine and waves and not a drop of rain in sight. Thirty Hotdoggers gathered to do battle and try to amass some much needed points towards their final league total.
The surf was around two foot and cleanish but fairly weak. Everyone surfed well as expected as this was a double pointer so bonus points were up for grabs. There was also an inter-forces canoe/wave ski contest taking place which meant the beach was packed but everything was cool. The day went smoothly as judges kept appearing which kept the contest flowing, keep it up guys it helps immensely.
A big welcome to Vikkie on her first contest. It was good to see Zak Lawton back competing after a long time away travelling. The Maddocks brothers were neck and neck all the way through in the juniors while in the open Greg Robinson made history by beating Ashley Braunton for the first time to take first place. Martin Scrace and Ben Keay just missed out on the masters final and Greg Norman has stepped up a gear and got into a open final again.
We finished the day off with a curry in the white lion and a few beers.
Thank you and well done to everyone who competed and helped out.
Norm.
