Hilarious isn't it. I hope his wife doesn't pass before he does, he won't be very popular with the rest of the familyYou don’t go to funerals?
That is a helluva lot stranger than not owning a jacket!

You could just have asked that question straight to me but I suppose there is less fun in thatHilarious isn't it. I hope his wife doesn't pass before he does, he won't be very popular with the rest of the family![]()
I'm with you on a lot of things but this no funerals thing is pretty unique to you I think. I hate funerals and would love not to go to them but I didn't think life worked like that.You could just have asked that question straight to me but I suppose there is less fun in that
Neither of us are having a funeral, already been discussed and agreed. No issue there, sorry to disappoint.
No funerals for us either. My wife's parents both died in the last couple of years...no funerals.You could just have asked that question straight to me but I suppose there is less fun in that

Definitely not unique, see post #225. I've also seen it happen increasingly with other people that we are aware of. Definitely not common, no question, but becoming more acceptable. Ultimately, you make your own decisions, no right or wrong.I'm with you on a lot of things but this no funerals thing is pretty unique to you I think. I hate funerals and would love not to go to them but I didn't think life worked like that.When one of my parents sadly passes, I can't imagine not going to the funeral or what that would look like to the rest of the family.
How convenient.My Canadian cousin is over in a couple of weeks and has invited me to join her for a round of golf and lunch at super fancy Brocket Hall where she's staying.
I thought I'd better check the dress code, it being posh and me being a pleb. Jeans and trainers are fine. And I can apparently land my helicopter in the grounds by prior arrangement.

The chauffer would only have to drive the Rolls from Luton or Stansted. It is what he is paid for.What if you only have a private jet? Not very inclusive is it![]()
What, have m'lud see peasants doing peasant things? Nah, m'lud wishes to remain in his bubble!The chauffer would only have to drive the Rolls from Luton or Stanset. It is what he is paid for.
You left out the new wedges, new bag to put them in and a trolley to have the bag onA new driver costs £500+, irons over a grand, when you start adding in specialist shafts etc after custom fitting these costs can go much higher. GPS watches £500. Shoes are all £100+ now. Even a pro V1 is £4 a ball. By the time a golfer has forked out for all these essentials, there's just no money left to buy a tie.
I was just mulling over whether having people there dressed in a shirt and tie versus having people there smart casually dressed versus people dressed in whatever they wanted would make me feel more or less respected as a club or trophy winner.Ours was 14th Feb. I wore jacket and tie...as I always do. Some asked if I was picking up a trophy or summit. Nope - just my way of showing a bit of respect to the club and trophy winners. I was one of only a few other than management, committee or board members who chose to dress so - but I have no issues with that whatsoever.
I wouldn’t feel less respected if I was picking up a trophy and nobody was wearing J&T…it’s just what I do as it’s what I’ve always done and feel it’s appropriate.I was just mulling over whether having people there dressed in a shirt and tie versus having people there smart casually dressed versus people dressed in whatever they wanted would make me feel more or less respected as a club or trophy winner.
I have concluded that, to me at least, it wouldn’t matter a jot.

As a board member I mainly just wear the golf clothes I wore that day for a round
