This was followed by lasagne and salad, apple tart and a few bottles of C\u00f4tes du Rh\u00f4ne.\u00a0 The idea of a last bottle before coffee was abandoned as many of us would soon be behind the wheel.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Marie gave us a short briefing about the changes that would happen at the club, which is probably being purchased by a wealthy family.&nbsp; The cost of maintenance equipment has become prohibitive, so the future of the club seems to be assured.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By this time, the sun had come out and a few other players were teeing off as Marie took photos of our merry bunch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-id=\"6611\" src=\"http:\/\/ginclub.website\/home2\/gentsinnyon\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/IMG_7666-1024x768.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6611\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ginclub.website\/home2\/gentsinnyon\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/IMG_7666-1024x768.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/ginclub.website\/home2\/gentsinnyon\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/IMG_7666-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/ginclub.website\/home2\/gentsinnyon\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/IMG_7666-768x576.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/ginclub.website\/home2\/gentsinnyon\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/IMG_7666-1536x1152.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/ginclub.website\/home2\/gentsinnyon\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/IMG_7666-1200x900.jpeg 1200w, https:\/\/ginclub.website\/home2\/gentsinnyon\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/IMG_7666.jpeg 2000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 1362px) 62vw, 840px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Four of us had signed up to play our usual round on Monday 8th December, but like many Mondays this Autumn, the course was closed due to water logging.&nbsp; However, we and nine others did meet at noon that day to enjoy our end of season lunch at the Manchette golf club.&nbsp; It was such &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/ginclub.website\/home2\/gentsinnyon\/2025\/12\/10\/gin-golf-end-of-season-lunch-2025\/\" class=\"more-link\">Continue reading<span class=\"screen-reader-text\"> &#8220;GIN GOLF End of season lunch 2025&#8221;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":56,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-6609","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-golf"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ginclub.website\/home2\/gentsinnyon\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6609","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ginclub.website\/home2\/gentsinnyon\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ginclub.website\/home2\/gentsinnyon\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ginclub.website\/home2\/gentsinnyon\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/56"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ginclub.website\/home2\/gentsinnyon\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6609"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/ginclub.website\/home2\/gentsinnyon\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6609\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":6616,"href":"https:\/\/ginclub.website\/home2\/gentsinnyon\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6609\/revisions\/6616"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ginclub.website\/home2\/gentsinnyon\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6609"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ginclub.website\/home2\/gentsinnyon\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=6609"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ginclub.website\/home2\/gentsinnyon\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=6609"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
