What's he "Bravely" done now?

My mate's 50th birthday pressie was a 9.10 tee time today at The Old Course.
He arrived on time to find the course was closed temporarily because of frost.
The course re-opened at 10 am but his tee time had been moved to 14.40 .
He is randomly irritated.

Happened to us but we weren't even given a later tee time as it was rammed. I was beyond upset. So I hung around the starter's hut once the course re-opened and a two-ball (Father and Son) checked in and I asked if we could join them. They said yes and were an absolute delight. We all had caddies and had the best laugh.

Standing up to the bullying of Emily Bridges who as a transgender woman has been banned from racing in women’s cycling events on the Jeremy Vine show. Played the old transphobic card when Sharron Davies shouted her down.

My regular playing partners moaning that they haven't been invited on last last few trips to "top courses" then, when a space comes up at Swinley, you offer it only to be told "blimey, I am not paying that much for a round of golf!"

Sharon obviously never got the memo that we now live in a time where intelligent people are being silenced so that stupid people won't be offended.

Just caught bits of this BIM, what exactly went off. ?

I do a pit golf day every year. A guy contacted me and said he was bogged off coz I never asked him Last year. I told him “ one of your playing partners told me you had said you couldn’t play as your son was getting married that day” he said “ yes but you could if asked me” ?

I did think that some of the 'facts' that India Willoughby came up with were a bit dubious. They claimed that Bridges' performance levels had been monitored by Loughborough Uni over 2 years since they started taking the drugs to reduce testosterone, and they had come down which meant they did not have an advantage over the rest of the women in the competition. However, Bridges won a male competition a few months ago (Uni Champs) and also got a bronze at the same Champs. Not sure how this shows they are no longer at a male standard.

Do you have to be a scab to get a invite? ?

He did the same and eventually joined a game at 12.15, just as the snow was forecast

So a post about 'the bad; the good and the ugly'!

 

[Carlwm]

The BBC insisting on having Jonathan Davies as a co-commentator when Wales are playing. His knee-jerk oohs and aahs when Wales are on the ball are almost as bad as Carragher!

In Wales, we take a big slug of our tipple every time he bellows "NUMBERS!". It's a great drinking drinking game. Guaranteed to get you sloshed.

 

[Carlwm]

In Wales they say, "I'm coming now in a minute!" So? Which is it? Now, or in a minute?

It's like manyana but without the sense of urgency.

We did something similar on the Sky Sports NFL coverage once. Someone told the late Kevin Cadle that every time he said "the score in our ball game is", everyone watching at one of the uni's had to down a mouthful. He was on to it from the start of our seven hour live coverage. Myself and Nick Halling were laughing helplessly when he kept doing it. At one point we got an e-mail into the studio from the lads at the uni pleading with him to stop saying it. We probably put a few of them in hospital that night.

No redundancy for me, confirmed today.
Lucky to have a job I suppose but that payoff would've been lovely.
