    Upcoming live concerts.

    Josh Groban last night in the O2...so very good. With a 22 piece orchestra and 4 piece band the music was absolutely fabulous. Not a massive fan of the style where others such as Alfi Boe, Michael Buble and Russell Watson live - but boy he can deliver a tune quite fantastically. Plus his...

    Scottish Fitba'

    Disappointing scorelines but I'm not distraught and full of gloom given both opponents are more than half decent - plus the performance against IC was betted. than that against Japan. Good was well that we are seeing new players come in that look as if they do a job for the team where there has...

    Annual subscription 2026

    Our ladies and gents academies are very popular and afaik are fully subscribed. The issue is always what can the club offer an academy member once they reach the limit of number of years they can have such a membership (3 I think). If they are good enough (I.e. can they cope with a full...

    Golf Things That Gladden The Heart

    Had a lesson this morning - my pro identified very quickly why I could hit some shots well (driver off the tee and wedges) - and why I completed mistimed and mishit everything else. The good. Driver off the tee? - mostly despite everything I was doing wrong; Wedges - mostly I was actually, and...

    Sounds better than 'come up and see my scraper boards'

    Golf Things That Gladden The Heart

    Makes a change from asking a lass if she'd like to see my etchings - ask her if she'd like to see our new hole groundworks

    Golf Things That Gladden The Heart

    I had a very nice Club Sandwich and she (the cat's mother 😻) had a cheese and ham omelette - since you asked. Happens that our new chef and his sous chef are excellent and do splendid food at very decent prices - and in our completed refurbished and upgraded ground floor bar and dining areas it...

    So what are you listening to at the moment?

    It just popped up on my YouTube feed - not heard it for ages and I'd forgotten how much I liked it and this genre. From very early 80s, but this Live from last year - Shakatak..Night Birds. Just so good - has me jigging around the room.

    Golf Things That Gladden The Heart

    Now if my mum had been about she'd have said to me 'who's she..the cats mother?' Of course the 'she' in question was my wife. ;)

    Golf Things That Gladden The Heart

    Had a bite of lunch at the club today with my wife…and after I suggested she might want to see our new 2nd hole being built. Yes I know that sounds weird but she’s heard a lot about the controversy surrounding the work so I thought she’d like to see what it’s all about. And yes…she was...

    Golf Random Irritations

    Couldn’t get a broken one out of a year old pair of Fans. Club shop couldn’t get it out either. Best they could do was glue on one they had cut down…so be it but very irritating.

    BBC

    I don’t think it’s over the guidelines fence to say that that won’t put off the BBC haters and those intent on undermining it from having a go🤷

    Is there a rule of thumb for launch angle vs club's loft?

    As I only just about understand the question…well I know the words….I’m afraid I can’t help answer other than Yes..Maybe…😉

    Books - what are you reading just now?

    ETA…listened to 2nd part of the adaptation of OtB…and despite reading book and watching the film of it I’d missed that the global nuclear war background context to the novel was started when Israel exploded a nuclear bomb over Syria. As the novel was written in 1957 I had assumed it was US/USSR...
