The Grafton Morrish Report from Mike Hall
Unfortunately I have to report another unsuccessful trip up to Norfolk for the Grafton last week.
We were drawn against George Herriotts in the first round (having come up against them seemingly every year in the first or second round.) This year we went down 2.5 to 0.5 although in reality the match was closer than the score would suggest. Spurling and Ingleby halved in the top game, Christo and I lost down the last in match 2 and Hubbard and Partridge lost 3 and 2 at the back. In each game, our opponents seemed to enjoy a lot more luck than we did. For example in the bottom match, the Sweaties holed from off the green 3 times.
Had we played them 10 times, I believe we would have come out on top 7 or 8 times. Herriotts went onto win the final against KCS Wimbledon.
