    Appeal against speeding fine

    A couple of years back I was on the M62 on the Manchester side of Birchwood travelling West, it was February and the sun was setting. I was travelling about 65 miles an hour in amongst a steady stream of traffic in all the lanes. Everything ahead was clear and I went under one of the speed...

    Great player Lewis, quick and deceptively strong but also very easy to dislike.

    Royal St David's is another option but wouldn't be cheap.

    Cartwright looks like he has them organised, tougher tests to come though.

    Swing isn't text book but he normally shoots high eighties, low nineties. His aim is to play to his handicap which is in the 13 - 15 region.

    One guy I do enjoy watching is "Not a perfect golfer". Comes across , to me anyway, as a decent guy without an ego. Plus he's in a similar handicap bracket and more often than not playing courses I've played so I have a very good idea of how well/poor he's played.

    Winter golf handicap

    This is exactly it. We are playing the same full course but with less flight and bounce. I'm reasonably tidy but not long and it's a struggle

    Winter golf handicap

    My next lowest is another 82 which comes off in two games, then there's another 3 or 4 around the 85 to 88 zone. My lowest index over the last 20 games is 12.0. It was 13.6 before I played today. Under the old system I always tended to be around 13. I tend to have a decent streak at some point...

    Winter golf handicap

    Currently still playing qualifiers for the first time ever at this time of year. Today I lost an 82 off my record, it will be replaced by a 90, probably go up by a full shot. Anyone else notice a rapid rise in handicap playing in winter conditions?
