BURNHAM-on-Sea golfers Sue and Art Severn have just returned from their annual, four-month winter break in Florida with more than their usual suntans.

The two Burnham add Berrow members, of Regency Close, had in their luggage a total; of 16 medals, which they won between them in the Florida State Senior Games.

They were competing in the 50-54 age-group, Sue having just turned 50, which made her eligible for the first time. Art, 52, has taken part before, but never with such success.

The sporty pair - Art is a retired PE teacher, Sue still does supply teaching in PE - won ten medals in the regional qualifying games at their base.
