Golf Random Irritations

the fact i have absolutely no inclination to play, been invited for a game a Skibo on Sunday, think im going to give it a miss and go the the monthly fat bike rasp in Aviemore instead
 
Playing in the club stableford today, a wild slice off the tee seemingly over the trees and obviously OOB. Reload, stating "no point calling this a provisional, 3 off the tee". Second attempt pulled left into a gorse bush. Walking down the hole, see my first ball sitting on the fairway. Words somewhat less civilised than "oh bother" were uttered.

Note to self: ALWAYS announce "provisional", just in case a miracle happens.

It's never wrong to do so!
