Playing golf today and the three ball behind us shouted Through a hedge “ has anyone lost a sandwich” ? I looked at me playing partners and said “Did he say Sandwich or sand wedge”. He said Sandwich. A PP had it on his trolley and it had dropped off. The “sandwich“ was in foil. It was actually two sausage rolls and they were gorgeous. Never heard of anyone losing a “ butty” on the course before.

I lost one last year. Standing on the 16th tee, getting ready to hit my ball, I saw my ham and cheese sandwich flying across my line of sight. The crows on our course never miss a trick - if you leave a zip open where there is food you are doomed!

At my previous course we had a wily crow, only the one, who would hang around the 10th green. Perfect spot, people usually get a snack out after 9 holes and munch as they walk. Reach the green, a par 3, put their snack on their bag and whoosh, away he would go with a claw full ?. Plenty of members would take spare and throw it for him/her but visitors were frequently caught out. That bird was definitely part of the club ?. You have to admire their daring.

We have a Crow which loiters around the 10th tee. Took my ginger snap from my bag a while ago.
 
Bought me dad two packs of ginger snaps from Aldi. 39p each. He was over the moon. Not had um In years.
The best dunkers out there, a ginger biscuit. I love them but my wife doesn't like the smell and they tend to overpower a biscuit tin. McVities used to be the daddy of them all but who knows now? All power to your dad and his biscuits (y)
