And finally a true Nordic Titan conquers all before him. Eriks magnificent 31 point total at a very tricky new venue, Haste Hill, has allowed his name to be entered onto the Valhalla 2018 Hall of Fame. He narrowly beat Sam's competitive 30 points. But was Sam's role as the Titans Litter Attache a distraction too far?
Is Sam taking his Litter Attache responsibilities a little too seriously?
Todtastic Lockard came in 3rd with just 26pts showing what a tough track this was, closely followed by Will on 25 points who unwisely beat the current tour leader Prez on count back. Not a good career move Will.
Erik the Viking also plundered the small prizes picking up LD and NP2. Nick won NP.

And of course there is always a lot of interest in the fate of Magni and it was a tough battle between Phil (The Hero of the Shire on the last outing) and journeyman Greg. Could Phil avoid becoming another Hero to Zero? Could Greg gain a glorious Irish victory (Ed - Steady on. Victory?) over the taffs? Well it was decided on the 18th where Greg's chip in birdie allowed him to match Phils 21pts and beat him on count back. Do I smell some controversy here? Was it Greg as handicap Secretary who dished out the world record cut of 5.5 shots to Phil just 2 weeks ago? Was this a rare example of prescience on behalf of Greg? Let you, the public, decide.
I’m so happy, oh so happy
Oh and what about Haste Hill as a tour venue? The general consensus was that it was a good challenge but there were niggles too. The bunkers were a little untidy, there was a lot of litter about (ask the Litter Attache!) and the bacon baps arrived as the first group was leaving the first tee. I shall say nothing about the gents toilets! However the baps were very good - 8/10. Views on whether we should play here again should be sent to the IOC.
