    Open Coverage Lost To SKY

    She who must be obeyed refuses to entertain having the Sky Sports package so I'll just have to make do with the BBC's two hour highlights programme instead. Never mind ... life's a bitch and then you die.

    Strange but True.

    I think it's a sign that the North Koreans are going to attack at dawn

    Jeremy Corbyn

    I'd like to see Dennis Skinner in charge. PM's question time would worth watching then. :D

    Smack or not?

    If my mam told me to do something I should be doing or to stop doing something I shouldn't be doing then I would do what she said because I knew darn well what I'd get if I didn't. This is the way it should be ... ad infinitum.

    How easy is it to put you off?

    Yes! It probably would and it's also quite likely that my very loud cough or sneeze just when you're at the top of your backswing on your very next shot after that would put you off as well. One good turn deserves another, eh!

    What does your newspaper say about you..

    The Mirror is read by people who think they run the country. The Guardian is read by people who think they should be running the country. The Times is read by people who actually do run the country. The Mail is read by the wives of the people who run the country. The Financial Times...

    Sexist remark or over reaction?

    I suspect it's because he doesn't understand the difference between inverted commas and quotation marks or the appropriate time for their use.

    I'd be interested to see what club they're choosing to use for each shot.

    Breast feeding in the golf club. Would you.

    Can't say I've ever thought about doing it ... it's not really a man thing, is it?

    Slow play........ What's the solution?

    My thoughts? A golfing variation on Martin Niemöller's famous poem. First they came for the members who could only get round in 5 hours and kicked them out of the club because they were considered to be slow but I did not speak out – I could get round in 3 hours Then they came for...

    Committees not understanding the rules

    My understanding of rule 27/2 is that a declared provisional only becomes the permanent ball in play when it comes to rest at a point nearer the hole than where the original ball is likely to be. Thus, if the original ball is found before that happens then it remains the ball in play and no...

    How far down the leaderboard does the prize money extend?

    Is it a percentage cut depending on their final position? What happens to the players that don't even make the cut, do they get anything at all? Do the 'names' get an appearance fee even if they go out with the cut (I'm thinking the likes of Jimenez, Poulter, Woods et al). How does it usually work?

    Battery charging

    Why not buy an intelligent trickle charger unit then you can plug it in and leave it until you're ready to use it again. I've got an Oxford model to keep my motorcycle battery up through the winter so they'll easily cope with what you need them to do. Do a search on Amazon; there's plenty to...

    Jules Bianchi 'fought to the very end'

    Can't say I'd ever heard of the chap before seeing it on the news this morning but, then again, I'm not a really an avid follower of Formula 1. Sad all the same. Was he somone of note?
