Etretat The 35th Jumelage in Etretat was held in fabulous spirit once again. Following a few stormy days, the weather was relatively calm for the cliff-top course where Hockley were victorious bringing home the Henderson Putter 8.5 - 5.5. Our French hosts entertained us superbly throughout the weekend and the homespun participative Woodstock tribute band were hilarious. We now look forward to the return visit on 2/3rd May 2020.
