Random Irritations

My more than random irritation is my sinuses. Completely blocked, It comes from open swimming in the local lake, either I am allergic to something or simply crap technique is leaving half of the lake in by tubes! Either way, it's sucking to be me today. I have a half ironman on Sunday, so could do with being able to breathe.

Currently on some tabs, nose spray, and some horrible contraption that squeezes pressurised saline up one nostril and out of the other, or at least it's supposed to. The left side is that blocked, the saline comes into your mouth via the back door! not fun.
 
Websites that don't update their webpages fully

One page says no parking available the other says plenty available lol

Make your minds up
 
Following a 4 ball of Ladies today, playing a better ball match. Held up from the 3rd hole and zero thought to let us through (we were a 2 ball). Even at the half-way hut they decided to get their drinks and go to the 10th rather than call us through. We were able to go from the hut to the 12th and leave them in our wake but I was livid. Lady Captain playing and what a horrendous example to set. No wonder the Ladies Section can have such a bad rep - some damned well deserve it.

And breathe...

I honestly can’t see why they wouldn’t let you play through?‍♂️?

There are groups of this attitude in both sexes and ages.

Followed a 4 ball with 2 16 handicappers and 2 plus handicappers ..

We caught them on the 8th (we teed off 10:02 3 ball they teed off 09:20 4 ball)

They didn't even look to let us through .. even when we were walking to the tee as they were just walking off

Have you tried a nose clip? They look naff but might help.
 
The weather!!!!

Utterly biblical rain the last hour or so, not to mention a few mini tornados gone through the village! Knocked the sky box out too :(

Summer they say......
 
Who are these people that text into the radio and why? What’s all that about?

I am eager to take delivery of my replacement work boom box and escape this madness.
 
Daddy I need a wee .. yeah no problem.. back to bed

I don't want to go back to bed now.. checks phone 04:13

Come on chick..
 
Ordered a couple of beds to be delivered to our holiday rental cottage. Get an email the day before saying they will be delivered between 7am and 1pm so arrange golf for the afternoon. Get another email at 6am on delivery day saying they will arrive between 7.30 and 9.30. Fantastic!

10am comes with no delivery. Ring up the company who say the van is coming from Ayr (a 5 hour drive away), so won't be with us until at least 1pm. No sign of it by 2pm so ring up again asking for an ETA. They say they have tried ringing the driver but he's not answering. They also say that, despite the courier being DHL, they don't have a tracking number.

Van eventually turns up at 5pm, driver tells us no one has rung him, and he picked up our package first thing that morning from Darlington, not Ayr!

An absolute waste of a day. Very frustrating.
 
Had 10:30 for today. Checked weather app on waking up, and it says heavy rain from 10 til 12, so we move our tee time to 13:00. Half hour later the app now says nothing more than light drizzle. I'm sure in an hour's time it'll be saying thunderstorms at 1. :cautious:
