Happy new year to you all! 2017 has been an eventful year and as we move into 2018 there is plenty to be excited about and look forward to.

November has been a very difficult month as we have endured some terrible weather systems throughout. The header image is on the last day of the month and pretty much sums up the way things have been, starting badly and then going down hill.

October has seen the start of our winter program of course improvements.

September has been a very busy month for us, unfortunately it has also been the wettest. In the month we endured some torrential bursts and at one spell we had 3 ½ inches in the space of just 5 days.

August has been an eventful month at Hunley, which I guess you would expect, but there are a few things for me to report back on in this months blog.

You could say that July is our biggest month of the year. This is certainly the case when it comes to our membership, with both Captains day and Club Championship falling in this month.

June was a month of extremes, with heavy rainfall followed by searing heat followed by more heavy rainfall. As is so often the case, this brings with it benefits but also problems.

My monthly blog often starts with a summary of the recent weather conditions and despite it being a little repetitive, it’s impossible to get away from the fact that the climatic conditions are the biggest influencing factor while doing our job.

So far this spring we have experienced some pretty decent weather. However at the end of April temperatures took a dip, bringing back more winter like conditions.
