Our Club President Sir John Hansen recently toured Mongolia with Craigengower CC (est. 1894, Hong Kong). The tour programme featured this pen portrait:
“This is his (sic) maiden tour with the Gower, having been subjected to intense scrutiny by the Supreme Leaders Council. Comes to the Gower with an impeccable reputation arising from a lifetime of jurisprudence – now in serious jeopardy. A Kiwi with a wealth of cricketing experience both as a left hand bat and international manager. Spent halcyon days in 80’s Honkers before returning to his native land to restore professional credibility. Now in his twilight years – Sir Judge finds himself President of The Willows CC and is particularly susceptible to a good story, a good Semillon, a good Pinot Noir and much to Lady Hansen’s regret binge- gardening. Likely to be as much use on this tour as a pair of “flip flops” at a formal dinner.”
