    Age for seniors

    First post........i am not convinced this can be true. Which club? And is this in terms of a discounted membership fee, as surely any competitions need to be in line with county recommendations? I play in a seniors inter club league, wouldnt fancy our chances if we couldn't pick anyone under 67!!!

    Random Irritations

    Yes, I was in Credit Risk & more latterly Internal Audit, moving from NAC. Retired at 55 in 2019, luckily just before COVID changed everything! Moved up North then, so don't see my old work colleagues much these days.

    Random Irritations

    Assume that was at NH Ian! Always felt a bit vulnerable when i had to go down there and get a laptop replaced or sorted :LOL::LOL:

    Winter Olympics (for those that like them)

    A lot of watching others and walking up and down too....and the action they coach is actually more like bowling, they don't encourage sliding.......knees on the ice cause it to heat up and melt. and is a no no. Obviously they allow the olympians to do that!

    Winter Olympics (for those that like them)

    Tried it a few months ago (there is a great facility at The Flower Bowl near Preston if anyone is interested - one of the few real ice curling rinks in England). It is bloody hard. We all struggled to get the stones to reach the house, let alone achieve any real accuracy. Bloody good fun though...

    Golf Random Irritations

    Don't new rules mean all golf clubs will have to have water collection/storage facilities soon? Believe there are going to be restrictions on using mains water. We have just installed a big water storage tank and know other courses nearby have done something similar.

    Films

    Watched this last night. Best film I have seen for some time (and we watch 3 or 4 films per week).

    Powakaddy golf bags

    I have a powacaddy trolley, but have never had a powacaddy bag. The vast majority of bags have a base that enables it to be locked onto the trolley. I have a Big Max bag now, and it has the necessary base. I would check before you limit yourself to powacaddy bags.

    The Cricket Thread

    Can't see what could be done to stop it. I'm no expert on the draft process but surely all teams need to do is select other players and say the Pakistani players did not warrant selection (on ability etc.). in such a set up, each owner is free to pick who he wants and doesnt have to select...

    Framing Golf Pin Flags

    Surely if they did fall off those labels once in the frame, it would be a simple job to take the back off the frame and replace the label. A frame isn't sealed permanently.

    The Footie Thread

    I always liked her in Star Trek though.

    Best golf shoes for season ahead - what do you recommend.

    Look at True Linkswear........most comfy shoes I have ever owned. Marginally more expensive than Footjoys etc but well worth it.

    Handicap manipulation - how to address

    How was the handicap commiitee made aware of those swindle scores? At my club, and my previous one, such scores are just kept by the organisers in a book or via a whatsapp group so I doubt that any officials would know, unless they happened to play in that swindle/roll up.
