    Laughter - the best medicine

    "For some time, my wife’s had this ridiculous idea that I’m playing too much golf. Actually, it came to a head at about 11.30 last night. She suddenly shouted at me: ‘Golf, golf, golf. All you ever think about is bloody golf!’ And I’ll be honest, it frightened the life out of me. I mean, you...

    Range finders

    I have a laser rangefinder and a GPS. I tend to use the laser mainly in the winter when temp greens are in play as GPS doesn't show them. Occasionally in the summer I'll use the laser on Par 3s if I cannot work out a pin position as we don't use front/middle/back coloured flags.

    My Golf insurance (Chubb)

    Although I have never claimed from GolfPlan in over fifteen years of being with them, you specify your equipment when you take out the policy and advise them of any change.

    East Lothian - Members

    Not far from Baberton, but a better course in my opinion, is Ratho Park. Could serve well as a temporary home until you get membership "Down the Coast" https://www.rathoparkgolfclub.co.uk/membership_offer

    The shopping game

    Tesco's Click & Collect and home deliveries really wind me up! Our Tescos seem to be the main store for these services in our area. You can hardly walk up and down the aisles because of the number of pickers filling carts for those who can't be bothered to visit the store. Now, in the past week...
