Nautical sayings in everyday use.
"Chock a Block"
If the rigging lines are pulled
too tight, the blocks through
which the ropes run bang
together making proper
control of sails difficult.
So when things are too close
together they’re Chock and
Block.
CYC / CCRC Golf Match
We are sorry to announce that
Bill Sandford, a long standing
past member, has passed away
and his funeral will be at the
Leatherhead crematorium on
Thursday 6th April at 13:15.
Also that David Raggett, a
Motor Member, passed away
last month.
Our annual golf match against the CCRC
takes place as usual at Hill Barn Golf Club,
Worthing, on Friday 7th April.
This match is normally well supported by all
sections of the club.
This will be our 10th year of the match. Our
matches are always very close and often go
down to the last match to decide the winner,
but it is always a good fun day.
If you would like to play, please ring me at
