Gutted. A good golfing friend of mine lost his fight with Lymphoma yesterday. He was my 4’somes partner in our inter club scratch matches for a few years. A really nice young man and taken far too soon. Only in his early 30’s with a very young family. Cancer sucks.

Far too young to be taken like that

Genuinely sorry to read this. Puts most of our daily moans and groans into stark perspective.

So being a member of a club, be that a golf club, football club, and so on, doesn’t allow you to feel some affiliation to that club? What rubbish.
Nothing wrong with that...especially when membership gives actual ownership or influence (such as voting rights). But, unless that's the case, the words 'our' 'we' and 'us' should be used sparingly and carefully.

I get that, but this is a forum populated by ordinary folk, not folk doing a degree in English language.

Testing positive for covid - might explain why I feel so crap

Not good. Hope you feel better soon and it isn't too bad for you. I've been feeling rough for several weeks and all the LFT's are negative. Assuming it's another bug (funny how the automatic default is now Covid) and feeling tired all the time so will be getting doctors appointment this week.

My friend told me that any cold like symptoms are now being assumed as Covid until September, after September it is assumed it is a cold.

Got to the station this morning, there's a train just coming platform but it's Baker Street all stations. Arrival board says another train coming in 2 mins so I'll just wait for that one. When that one turns up - out of service. Cheers for that. Wait ten more minutes for the next actual train - and it's Baker Street all stations again. Ffs. Is it that hard to get it right?
