    Red posts around water

    But even in 1899 were not the R&A just making up new names for something which already had a perfectly good description? Eg ''Casual water’ shall mean any temporary accumulation of water ... " :)

    Golf Things That Gladden The Heart

    Playing at Tecina Golf (on La Gomera). The nearby hotel - which provides most of the clients on the course - closed last week for a major refurbishment.

    The EFL Thread

    Mansfield need just1pt from their last three matches in order to go up! (Ok, mathematicaly MK Dons could still catch them on points - but realistically, they are not going to overturn a difference in GD of 28 in two matches).

    Faulty M4 irons from American Golf

    Not sure what is supposed to "look like this"? Haven't yet worked out how to access the admin settings of the router. The 'obvious route' is asking me to set or change a password - will need more time to work out 'what' I'm changing and what the consequences of changing it might be.
