As an aside, is it fair to be naming who and what you spoke to about things on a public forum? A private conversation is just that, not for publication on the World web.

Particularly if there is any truth in the suggestion those discussions have been misrepresented. I’m quite sure a member of a club’s greenkeeping staff will not take too kindly to hearing that they have undermined their head greenkeeper if that isn’t actually what happened.

If the conversation was between a few of you, and not minuted and repeated via club letter to all members, it was a private conversation. Unless of course you don't understand what it means, in which case a private members club isn't for you

Western Gailes really isn’t the club for you.

Probably a kid to some of you I’m 40 but to be honest and this is 100% true I have no reason to lie. Infact if the guy who plays at east ren wants to ask any of the Greenkeepers about me they will verify ive been very successful through hard work and retired early 20s.
I have a good few mates similar to me as in really quite uneducated and didn’t do well at school but all have found very different ways to become financially free and retire or else maybe keep going but really don’t need to.
I also have some very intelligent friends who went to very good schools and done well in there exams but none of them are living well and just have poorly paying jobs but they do know the 3 versions of there I’m sure lol
So I will take as some would say dumb and rich over smart are poor everyday of the week and twice on a Sunday

Well, I’m sure we’re all very glad that over the last 20 years you’ve learnt to make a lot of money.
I wish you well for the next 20 of your retirement, I hope you find a way to make a good contribution to society and use your fortune well. I hope you might learn some of the more important things in life. Until then, I think you might find it hard to settle into a golf club. Sometimes, I read a post and think would I want to be in a club with the person who wrote this, or would I want to spend a pleasant 3 or 4 hours in their company…

Who remembers MrPing?
Played at WG last week. Barely a blade of grass out of place on the whole course.
I did get a few looks from members getting in and out of jacket and tie. Wondered if that was the case.
I did hear from one fella playing that it was a waiting list and £7k joining fee. Not sure how true that was or not but he described it as them "not wanting members". I thought everyone seemed spot on tbh
