My first time

[Jimaroid]

So I popped my cherry last night. It all started with a lovely man turning up at my door... He had arrived courtesy of Mr DPD and Mrs Amazon and he handed me a box containing a lovely pair of new shoes. Everyday shoes, nothing out of the ordinary, so off I go into the spare room where we have a dress mirror and I can try them on. I'm stood there looking at myself, turning this way and that, admiring my new purchase when I naturally fall into my golf stance and start a cheeky little practice swing.

"Hmmm" I think.

Something wasn't feeling right, was it just the new shoes or the lack of a club in my hands? Nearby I spy my daughter's set of play clubs.

Fig i. Play clubs

"Aha! The yellow plastic is the perfect club for this." I pulled it out of its tour bag. I adopted my stance, took a lovely big swing and in an almighty cacophony of ringing and flying glass proceed to smash the lampshade above my head.

So I'm stood there, toy club in hand, in a shower of glass shards and laughing like a drain. It was always inevitable that something would be broken as a result of indoor golf practice one day but I never expected to do it with a toy club.

thanks for sharing this

I put a dent in the ceiling with my 7-iron recently ... felt quite stupid about it as well, because I had checked about three times before I swung it and it always seemed to have enough room

There has been a piece out of our plaster fireplace for a few years now. Nobody but me knows how it got there.

Yup there a chip on out stone fireplace half. young Bradley's nine iron was the culprit.

Been too scared to swing anything inside the new house. HID would kill me

Many years ago, I did exactly this while babysitting my then girlfriend's cousin's kids. I'd forgotten until just now, so thanks for the laugh and the memory 👍🏻😆
