    Rain & Winter Gloves? MacWet?

    I've used MacWet, Footjoy Rain Grip, Golden Bear Rain Grip and Dunlop Resin Grip. All worked for me. I'm not convinced paying more will get you a better performance. My hands get wet and it never bothers me (until I need to pee then you remember how cold they can get! 🫨😲)

    Random Irritations

    Just heard that a neighbour on our street passed away from cancer on Friday. He's been battling it for a couple of years and chatting to him a couple of weeks ago, he wasn't even expected to make Christmas 2024. He played as much golf as he could last year and leaves behind a wife and two...

    Retirement

    I've been asked if I would consider consulting. It's not something I'm going to actively chase, but if somebody asked, it would depend on the fee. Very unlikely though.

    Retirement

    Bloody annoying but apparently it's because we had a company wide blanket third party only insurance.

    Retirement

    I had to go to a broker as, whilst I could provide driving history, I couldn't get proof of NCD from them.

    Traitors UK 4 - probably spoilers

    I watched the celebrity traitors but never seen any of the others. It's not for me, a programme that rewards people that lie and cheat. Just sends the wrong message IMHO.

    Random Irritations

    We have a call blocking option on our landline through Sky so it only accepts numbers we recognise. However, if somebody else calls and wants to speak to us, they are put on hold and we can decide whether to accept the call or not. It works really well and we get no cold calls. For my mobile...

    58° Wedge recommendations

    I use Cleveland cavity back wedges which I tend to be a little more forgiving.

    Fog lights

    My Skoda Superb has front and rear fog lights seperate from the main lights. I do use the rear lights whenever its foggy and they are definitely brighter than the standard ones. For the front, I have used them and turned the main beam off as they cut under the fog and you get less light bounce...
