Yes indeed, the staff are fantastic. Without being political (honest) it is not easy to follow what is and what is not allowed. Cafe or restaurant is especially confusing.

Is it so bad that it has affected your spelling.

Our place is serving food and soft drinks/coffee indoors until 6pm each day and you can get an alcoholic drink if you sit outside - they bring it out to you.

It looks like golf clubs within the Central Belt of Scotland are having to close their clubhouses for the next 16 days

After 26 posts thats news to you why?
i think we, though not in lockdown as such are closing the bar and catering from Monday to Thursday, same with the pro shop

Because there is so much confusion with what is happening here. Outwith the Central Belt, where I live, our clubhouse and bar remain open, although it has to close at 6pm and cannot serve alcohol indoors as do restaurants, but cafes don't. Those living in the Central Belt "should not travel outside their health board area if they don't need to." and those living outside the area should not travel into it.

Think most of the issues caused by 'the guidelines being unclear' are down to people trying to find ways around them rather than accepting them. I'm not struggling with any of them.

The Dormy House is open for food and soft drinks and the halfway houses are open for food and alcohol. Happy days

Ouch that's a sore one, good job we get a discount card but to be fair the grub is good and you get plenty on your roll.

Yes it was nice and I left a £3 tip
, because earlier we got nice surprise, we were expecting to pay green fees but turned out it was already paid . Turned out a great day, the course, food, company and the weather were excellent.My golf wasn't too bad 33 points including 3 blobs, 1st blob 2nd hole short par 3, missed the green only slightly to the right but it tumbled a fair bit down the slope, hit a nice chip that sadly kept on running way passed the pin down of the back, chip on and 3 putt
.2nd blob was at the 10th it think
, just couldn't see where the green was.3rd blob at the 17th, I left it slightly short, chipped on but it ran right to the back of the green, putted to pin high but it broke 6 feet right leaving me an uphill putt, left it 6 inches short and it ran back down to 8 feet away then 2 putted for a 6
BTW your green keeper
has a wicked sense of humour giving a few of the pin positions

Can beat that! Howling left to right wind knocked my ball front right of the green, where it promptly rolled down to the 3rd tee ?

Though in truth confusion across the UK arises when we try and do something that we are being encouraged to do - but can't quite work out the details, circumstances and constraints under which we are allowed to do it. I am being generous to those who are simply intent on getting on with their life 'as normal' regardless.

I think you're being very generous. I do appreciate some of the guidelines are more complex than others but if you (they - not you) don't understand them, err on the side of caution.
People don't want to do that. They just want to be selfish and carry on, citing that the rules are too complex to understand.
