Andy Webber aka Captain Pugwash

I was born 17th May 1969 in Portsmouth Hampshire and have always lived in and around the Fareham area. Been married over ten years to Jean and we have a great son called Thomas, who despite all my efforts will not get involved in golf, preferring football instead. In my current employment I often travel the world, quite often with my clubs in tow. This has allowed me to play a number of different courses in the US and I am particularly looking forward to playing the Nicklaus designed Glen Abbey golf course in Ontario Canada this June when I visit. First played golf when I was 16 although I didn't start playing seriously until I was 20 when working at a previous employer with two fellow Tee1up golf society members Gavin Hall and Michael Whitelock. For a number of years our golf was limited to playing various rounds and days out at local courses including Portsmouth, Great Salterns, Chichester, Wickham Park to name a few. We also arranged ourselves weekend trips once a year to the West Country playing courses such as St Mellion, Woodbury Park, Lanhydrock and Dartmouth. I started playing with the golf society during 1997 on the second ever golf day at Bramshaw, since when I have been fortunate enough to have never missed a day. During my time with the society I am a pass winner of the Spring Bowl when played at Corhampton and also won the Double Matchplay with my playing partner Michael Whitelock. Although these two victories are not what I am remembered for by the longstanding members of the society, these are overshadowed by the incident at the 2000 golf weekend away at Lostwithel when I had a poor reaction to the Scotch Whiskey collection at the bar. Kevin is more than happy to provide details for those that don't know the story. I was very fortunate during my time at Tandberg to form a friendship with Kevin that continues to this day, and have allowed us both to received numerous invites from friends we have made through the society and work to courses such as Wentworth West Course, The Oxfordshire, Welcombe Park, Worpelsdon, Mentmore and Magnolia Park to name a few. The society has been most enjoyable over the past 7 years and allowed me to make numerous friends who have provided some memorable days on the golf course, long may it continue!!!
Best golfing memory playing Old Course at St Andrews in fine sunny conditions and shooting an 84 (Net 73) that included a par at the Road Hole. Best course played - Close call between St Mellion Nicklaus Course in Cornwall, Wentworth West Course and Vilamoura Old in the Algarve
