What's Happening Week of 2 November............

This week sees me in Wellington for a two and a bit day workshop/conference on "Risk Management As Regulatory Strategy" run by Malcolm Sparrow a visiting Professor from Havard's John F Kennedy School of Government - a fun time at the Brentwood Hotel. A check of my calender shows a couple of mediations in the balance of the week so the tax payer will be getting value for dollar!

On the golf front Saturday sees the Norton Francis Cup with 13 visiting clubs participating on a combined pairs four-ball par competition while the members play for the Markers Cup on the same basis. Please get you names down as soon as possible as this is always an enjoyable day and the visiting clubs appreciate the efforts made.

Sunday is scheduled for the final of the Shootout sponsored by the Shirley Links Golf Shop, many thanks to Ant & JB. This is a long day for the organisers and the players but it is well worthwhile to be present at some part of the day particularly the finish which normally incorporates some form of drama. If you are in the field bank on at least a six hour round if you get to the final holes and with 19 hitting off a long first!!

In the interim good golfing and I will see you at Shirley if not before!
