    Langdon Hills Golf Club

    Hi UG11 I have been a member of Langdon Hills for about 8 years. In that time the owner has put a lot of money in to improve the quality of the main two loops (Langdon and Bulphan)although the Horndon loop, whilst OK, isn't anywhere near the quality of the others. Over the last year or two the...

    I haven't had a go at anybody. It is you who seems to be throwing your toys out... Hey ho. Never mind.

    It is not ideal but if it is the price to save people then maybe it is. That is a personal call. Nevertheless 99% loss on a donation is an extreme and if you research properly, then you can make your £1 stretch a lot, lot further.

    Great isn't it Chris661? I ask you a question and you come back with a dismissive one-liner. You're smart!!!!! So if you don't mind answer the question please.

    So Chris661, How much is a human's life worth? Child or adult? How much is YOUR life worth Chris661? If you donated £20 and only 50p got through and that gave a child enough water to survive, or a drug to stop their diarrhoea, isn't that a good thing?

    Quick question for Medwayjohn.......

    First penalty was a bit soft but we see given in games every week. Second penalty was a penalty and Chamakh milked it (again like players do nowadays from ALL clubs). Irrespective of that - there was a stonewall penalty not given to Arsenal in the first half and Gibbs was no less offside than...

    European Tour drops British Masters.

    I went to watch the British Masters for several years when it was at Woburn. I would love it to get back there some day. Great track, has sufficient room for a European Tour event and is reasonably easy to get to being 20 minutes or so off the M1.

    Bring back Steve Ryder .. And ditch Dreary Lineker

    Please get Sam Torrance out of the commentary box. After thinking that I was on some personal crusade against Mr T, I thought I would try and see what he contributes to the commentary other than what I can observe myself. There was nothing he said on the Sunday round that I couldn't see for...

    US Masters music...love it or hate it?

    Got to be the Classic Beeb theme. Sitting there on a Thursday evening (avec bottle of beer and a fajita) and then listening as that theme tune starts up certainly makes me realise each year that THIS is the start of the golf season. Bring it on...

    What does everyone do, job wise?

    The good(!!?) thing was that they trashed the branch badged "RBS". We work in the building the other side of The Bank of England "badged" NatWest..!!! Obviously the protesters didn't read the financial news about NatWest being owned by RBS otherwise our building may well have been trashed too...
