Can the whippersnappers contact me directly if you have any preferences regarding playing partner or tee off time. There are no guarantees but I'll see what I can accommodate. I'm sure rosecott will do likewise.

No, as is tradition, let the good natured, age-based ribbing begin :eek:
Oh my giddy aunt! @Imurg a Snapper?

The following salespeople will be there with their stalls to keep you lot spending.

I am regularly scanning the WHS platform to ensure that Farts get the maximum shots possible and that Snappers get away with nothing.

I'll wait until tomorrow evening to report back. Next round falling off my last 20 is one of my 8 best, and tomorrow I'm playing in what currently looks like up to 50mph gust winds, so with that in mind I'm most definitely putting a card in.

Strategic... :D
 
Bit of a random irritation and getting excuses in early. Was due my second vaccinaction in a week’s time, but it was randomly cancelled yesterday by the NHS. Called my GP and am now getting it on Saturday. Hoping my arm’s isn’t as sore as last time.

Likely to be arriving at FP around 2.30 on Sunday.

Good luck with that mate. 2:30 is plenty of time before we tee off

After effects of my AZ second shot last week were nothing like the first, if you're getting AZ I think you'll be fine.
 
Interesting fact.

In the second pairs match out on Sunday, the combined ages of Dando and Treeseeker exactly equals the age of one of their opponents.

Ah, but we have just noticed your post in the Drop to Single Figures thread! :p[/QUOTE]

Mission accomplished, even though it was worse than expected. A gross 91 which is my worst score with a card in my hand since May 2019.

Will know my knee handicap after midnight. It won’t change too much though.
