    @Orikoru sell through ebay, ship using another company 🤷‍♂️. It's still the go to place for second hand golf clubs

    Drives or driveways.

    I believe the numbers are up overall. More people playing, more women, more kids.

    LIV Golf

    I think you are missing how people are monetised now. Social media can/will make someone more money than a clothing line now. The world has changed, that is old school thinking.

    Random Irritations

    @Neilds is absolutely right to feel irritated but we can also comment about the concept of a saints day. We are not a catholic country so a saint, really? The guy wasn't English, never came to England. Why am I celebrating him? I don't feel any link or pride in St George, he is a meaningless...

    Game improvement or player distance

    I'm a 17 capper and would say go for the clubs you hit the most comfortably. Golf is hard, get all of the assistance you can get. If you get down to 10 those clubs don't suddenly become redundant. You can still use them. One slight contradiction to the above. You have to like your clubs. You...

    Let's hope that the electorate are aware of what that person did and ponder that when they cast their vote.

    Things That Gladden The Heart

    A sad point I heard the other week. The effective decline of the TV theme tune. They have them but most people now, me included, just jump to the start of the action, missing the theme. These shared moments won't be there in the future.

    Golf Random Irritations

    I'm not a technical person but if you are topping it I think that means you are hitting the ball on the way up. You need contact to be further back in your swing arc. Whether that is at a neutral point or on the down angle still ....... personal preference I think.

    Would you join a club that did not have a dress code?

    And yet, a golfer keeping their gloves on gives you the heebie geebies 🤷. We humans are a strange bunch 😄

    That's a weird one. I saw Anthony Horowitz on BBC breakfast this morning talking about his new book. He was in the studio, on the sofa, wearing a baseball cap. I did have a little chuckle to myself. Posh bloke, respected author, letting the side down..........

    Golf Random Irritations

    I agree, that is a shame. It's a bit dull as a course as well. I've been to it twice, no real urge to go back. Moving it around would be much more interesting from a spectator persepective.

    Things That Gladden The Heart

    I just about remember warming the tv up, not the anthem. I was too young, would have been in bed then. I certainly remember getting up to turn the tv over and the excitement of having a remote for the first time. That remote was attached to the tv by a long wire 😄. All laugable to my kids, and...

    Things That Gladden The Heart

    I don't really remember when renting stopped. Renting your tv was standard, people rarely owned them at one time. Mr Rumbelows and Mr Radio Rentals had a hell of a business for a good few years. Then all of a sudden, gone. Did tv's suddenly become cheap? I wonder what caused the big change in...

    The Footie Thread

    Too many fussy ones now, ah well. The Argentina one is awful :sick:. I guess they are trying to reinvent the wheel each tournament, not easy to do.

    I'm going to throw out an ear worm for all those that remember, Champion the Wonder Horse :love:. Come on, you are hearing the title music, it will be with you all day now 😊
