GILLIAN KIRKWOOD REPORTS FROM SHERWOOD FOREST
 Lesley Lloyd had the most substantial win for Scotland, with a 2 and 1 victory over Barbara Laird.  The other five singles matches went to the last green.  Sheena Wood led the order and lost by one hole to Sue Dye.  Lorna McKinlay, Gillian Kyle and Alex Glennie halved with Caroline Berry, Julie Wheeldon and Chris Stokes respectively. 
Meg Sievwright, from Buckpool, made one of the most amazing come-backs in the history of the competition.  Six down after 7 holes,  and still six down after 10 against past British Seniors Champion, Janet Melville,  she dug deep and clawed her way back to be all square playing the last. 
 Unfortunately a lost ball in the right rough spoilt the "Come-Back Kid" story,  and she lost by one hole, but all credit to her determination not to be beaten out in the country.
