madandra - respect is due

[DCB]

Madandra,

A big hitter on the Forum and on the Range!

To quote J_F "Ah. Madandra and I were up there the other day and he was most impressed. The buggar was hitting his drives 20 feet up the back fence."

I need a good tailwind to get anywhere near that!

 

[madandra]

But what J_F failed to mention was I had to run half way down the range to hit the fence

We all get lucky now and then.

I've watched the video of you swinging that LD and that is a powerful hit from what I saw.

oh andra you big hitter you, how are you coping with all this fame,you being reserved and a quiet big fella, he he

 

[John_Findlay]

Oops, sorry Andy. It's really just a ploy to worry the GM guys for Friday.

 

[madandra]

I am off 11 ..... I don't think I am puting the fear of God into anybody. I am going for the craic.

 

[Boabski]

Madandra, was hoping to read what your first ever post was but they don't let you go back that far. Can you remember what it was about?
I joined about the same time and have had many a chuckle and many an argument and a few wind-ups to boot on here.
Very surprised to get an invite to St A this Friday and am very grateful to you and JF for that. looking forward to that so much, just hope we can get a decent day weather wise. Don't know how I'm going to manage to call people by their real names though!!
Well done on the posting! Mine has tailed off a bit, maybe just as well!

I echo Birdiemans sentiments with regard to my invite on Friday Madandra and congratulations on your magnificent achievement.
Look forward to conversing with you on Friday (as well as BM and J_F) although judging by our post tallies it would seem that I'll be doing more listening than talking.

I think my first post was the one about changing shoes in the car park. Up until the weekend I was rather composed regarding our little St Andrews adventure but now I am like my 4 year old a few days before Christmas.

Forum team, you think you're excited...

there's been little talked about in the office since the date was set. Those that weren't selected this time are absolutely gutted about missing out. Those who are in the team have been alternately checking various weather websites and discussing our potential pairings

I can assure you there will be a hell of a lot of club cleaning and getting of kit ready on Thursday night in preparation for the 3.45am alarm call.

How are you getting from the Airport to the home of golf?

 

[MikeH]

we've got a hire care booked to pick up at Edinburgh airport - much talking of tactics to be done en route!

 

[madandra]

We are meeting at the St Andrews hotel on thursday for a practice round then staying there Thursday night and getting them to bill GM

 

[Atticus_Finch]

Tactics??
Hit it, find it then hit it again is it?

Forgive me, chaps, I've just woken up after my usual 40 year old's TV nap....tictacs...who's got tictacs ? Mmmmmm, orange ones.
