e-drive COMPETITION WINNER Congratulations to Barry Field who won the e-drive competition run at the final London Irish home match of the season (Saturday, 8 May). The competition was to win a day golfing in a team with Conor O'Shea at the e-drive annual Golf Day which was held at Hemsted Forest Golf Club last Friday (4 June). The day began bright and early with coffee and bacon rolls at 7:30. Tee-offs then ran throughout the morning with nearly 50 of e-drive's top clients and suppliers combining what they do best: talking business and playing golf. The day culminated in drinks and a superb lunch laid on by the golf club. Barry thoroughly enjoyed his day on the course and quotes "It was fantastic to have a round with Conor and I was pleasantly surprised to win the 'longest drive' competition". He continues "I would like to thank e-drive for their terrific hospitality on what was a great day."
