AS an older member (both in age and service) of Lydney Golf Club I want to thank most sincerely all those who have worked so hard and in any capacity on our new course and clubhouse. Honestly, it is fabulous and will be a match against any others. I only wish that I could have done more myself but unfortunately circumstances have prevented me.

Over the last few years we have lost some of our members due to a certain amount of uncertainty, so we could do with some new blood. If anyone,

either new or returning oldies, would like any information about our members' club I am sure that our membership secretary (01594 829577) would be more than pleased to help.

Good luck to the new Lydney Golf Club on Naas Lane.
