Nine World Class Golfers flew in to Launceston, Australia on Saturday 28 October and one more player arrived on Sunday 29 October making ten, for battle in this prestigious event and this year the competition was in the mixed formats of Single Stableford, Stroke and a Two-person Ambrose Stroke. A 12 seater Toyota Commuter bus was hired to travel the isle of Tasmania in search of golf courses to play. This vehicle ran on Boags or Cascade which was cheaper than petrol but had one tyre that had to be inflated several times to keep us on the road.

For 2006 the golfers were:

a. Shady Col the Financial Advisor- Who's got money to invest in Telstra?
b. On-time Donny- Why is everyone always late?
c. Jan the "There's no advantage for women here" And why should there be?
d. Chucka Charles- The Golf Course Walker and Bag Carrier. I'm so strong and fit from doing this.
f. Ralph the Accounts Director- "I think you owe another 20c AND who didn't pay for their sweets as it wasn't on the first bill?"
g. John the Bus Driver- "Who can tell me where to go?" We can all do that and many tried.
h. Noel the Midnight Arriver- Where was our Tour Guide and bus driver as the standard of dress this year was poor?
h. Cec the Muggle of Muggles R Us and Hooch Maker- Chief Grand Wizard of the World Muggles Society.
i. Brian the Organiser and Geocacher Extraordinaire- They all think I'm a nerd.
j. Lance the Gambler and Social Drinker- "It's breakfast so it's time for a beer. Take the next corner left, John."

And there were also two Shopettes

k. Eileen the Jeweller and
l. Marina the Tourist.

We travelled the land in our bus while staying at the Old Bakery Inn in Launceston and the Rydges Hotel and Apartments in Hobart looking for golf courses to play
