Parking on the tee

[chrisd]

I've never pulled my trolley on to the tee wherever I've played

I've just seen a news report from Celtic Manor where it's apparently being used by a golf society called NATO and some lout has driven a tank and a personel carrier on to the tee!

No wonder golf is going downhill!!

And, who landed a Typhoon on the lawn at the front door

Now to be fair Phil I really thought you'd be telling us what the items really are!!

Chris,

I think the banking parallel is relevent here (if you owe the bank £20k, you've got a problem, if you owe then £20bn they've got a problem).

If you park your trolley / buggy on the tee you'll be tutted at, if you're one of the most powerful and heavily armed nations the world, the grass better be in top condition for your APC / Tank else head's will roll!!!!!

If I owned a tank I'd park it where I jolly well like. Too!

We have a 'tank crossing' warning sign just up the road from the club. I like to think I might notice a tank crossing the road without the sign.

This reminded me of when I was in the Army........I say "when I was in the Army"...........

I was in Germany and the story going round was that a tank regiment was out on exercise in the German countryside,
they were becoming thirsty for a beer so went in the local pub and were promptly refused, (they didn't like the "Squaddies")
so the tank commander drove up to said pub and smashed then gun turret straight through the front window and said,
"Now will you give us that drink or I'll show you what this can do". :whoo:

It looks very impressive

Looking forward to seeing it fly

On a similar note, Alan Shearer dropped into the Downshire yesterday to play one hole for his annual challenge match

I hope they've tidied up the mess left by that lot when I play there in a few weeks!

Well it's not a bloody tank, this is a tank.

twas as a long time ago - apparently - 60's Cent with blanks loaded, pub just off Hohne ranges. Much thought off as one of the RAC myths of the century.

I hate be a geek, but why has the TYPHOON got STORMSHADOW and EPIV fitted? It can't use those armaments, infact it is pretty useless to be honest. But credit where credits due, it does a cracking display at air shows.....:rofl:

Crap for carrying golf clubs and Mars Bars though!

 

[NST]

I hope they were fitted for the tank.

The migty F3 might have been a bit useless too, but at least you could fit a set of clubs in the AMMO bay....:thup:
