Proper parky.. |
As we piled into the bar, drenched and battered, the president opened her address with a comment about the beautiful weather.
Having finished some thirty minutes earlier, she hadn't had to putt through this on the 17th!
But, golf is, after all, an all weather sport, right? Between teeing off and putting out on that hole, we'd had sun, wind, driving rain, pounding hail, and back to bright sun. So, that's what they mean by all weather? The only thing missing was fog.
Double shot to get me going |
Next week, the match play finals.
Great Grizzly Greg plays Power Panther Peter. We'll be opening a book on the result shortly.
The three stooges? Not these three... |
These are my performance enhancing druggs |
Roland's complaining that the blog is too Anglocentric, so here's a special one for him:
It's surprisingly funny for a German joke.
(Dear fellow, you've been a doctor for years now, yet you're still terrible at golf. What on earth do you do all day?)
By the way, did you hear about the player who spent so much time in the bunker he got mail addressed to Hitler?
We're going to enjoy ourselves, whatever the result |
Yes, well, we'll have to take their word for it.... |
So, how'd we go on the novelties?

I've just put our vacuum cleaner on eBay. Well, it was only gathering dust.
And, the fifth round of the Club Championships. Those who got in before the weather should have had an advantage here, but it didn't seem to make much difference.

Unfortunately the beard was attacked by moths |
