    Let the Xmas film season begin

    The Christmas holidays aren’t complete for me without collapsing on the sofa with a full belly, watching Where Eagles Dare for the billionth time. #Broadswordcallingdannyboy

    Boris will let us play golf on March 29

    We had a school golf team, but not our own course on school grounds. Reigate Heath GC was our course for home matches. Lovely little 9 hole heathland course in Surrey. I must go back and replay it, haven't played there for 33 years. :LOL:

    Boris will let us play golf on March 29

    This is a really good point. During lockdown walks, I've been amazed to see rowing boats and sailing boats out daily on one of the large lakes near me, with multiple occupants, all using shared equipment. On checking my facts before reporting it as a blatant breach of lockdown, I discovered that...

    Flying with golf clubs...

    Have taken my clubs on planes, to play abroad around 25-30 times. As others have said, get a decent travel bag for the clubs, and then pack the top of the bag with things like extra towels (you need them for the sweat on hot days anyway), and my best tip is to use your golf shoes in the top of...

    Band reunion; you have the power...

    They aren't my favourite band. They aren't even my favourite band of just the 60's/70's. But if I could resurrect one band for a one off gig with a front row view, there's absolutely no doubt about it, I'd choose The Beatles.

    Heythrop Park Oxfordshire mini meet

    I’ve never played Heythrop Park despite it not being too far from me. If this meet gets resurrected after lockdown, I’d love to join you guys.

    Open Tournaments

    I’m playing in pairs opens at Woodhall Spa, Beau Desert, and Frilford Heath. Plus 36 holes at Sunningdale in August. There are still plenty of opens available in 2020.

    Ryder Cup postponed until 2021

    I know I'm in a very sizable minority on this subject, but I'm really disappointed. Would have liked to have seen it played this year, without fans.

    Need help before clubs get snapped!!

    Bear in mind that most of the advice given to you here is by players who possibly have worse swings and bigger faults than you do. You know what to do. Don't take advice from a waiting room full of poorly patients, book an appointment with the doctor himself. Time to see the pro ;)
