Random Irritations

[Slime]

Rudeness, poor manners and arrogance all displayed by one individual on the course today. No-one behind us as we played the 5th. Saw a guy half-way down that hole as we were on the 6th (bell-hole as blindish tee shot). Shortly afterwards as we looked for HIDs ball in the trees (no longer than 3 minutes search) a ball came over our heads from the tee. This was closely followed by another! He came into view as we rang the bell and no apology. He did hang back a bit and then we stopped for a coffee at the hut and he walked straight past without an acknowledgement to us as we were vacating the hut. He then drove into the trees and we were waiting as he found his ball...messed up the shot, looked back at us and promptly hit a 2nd. Saw him duff one of them into the hedge bottom and he moved to the 11th tee. Proceeded to then take an age to hit his first tee shot and then had the flipping cheek to hit another. There is a clear club rule about no practice on the course so I shouted to him - he turned around but then took off to find his balls (neither threatening the green). On the 12th he definitely thought about a second drive but thought better of it.

Not sure I've encountered so many acts of rudeness from one individual on the course in such a short space of time!

That's not good at all.
Did you report him after your round?

No as wasn't sure who he was and we finished on the 12th hole. I'll recognise him (and his shonky swing!) though should I see him again. I cannot abide rudeness and when it's so in your face it beggars belief!

The bear trap. I am done with this now. It seems to be mentioned every few minutes on the comentary. It is 3 holes, out of 18. 2 short par 3s, and a par 4. Wow. Frightening. Not.

You'll be looking forward to Amen Corner then 😁.

Just got in and England’s women are playing, I honestly thought it was a Sunday morning game. And the guy from Robot Wars couldn’t sound more bored with his commentary.

Ikea furniture.
To be fair it’s pretty decent but it gets boring putting it together after a while, plus I now ache all over and I’m supposed to be playing golf today

It's the obsession that irritates me. Last week it was the grass this week a series of holes with a 'scary' name. They go on and on about it and it just becomes dull. It's like an in joke that only they care about.

Collected my new car on Friday. Having covered just 20 miles one of the rear tyres is already flat as a pancake as it has a nail though it.

Sorry to hear and today has just ruined your weekend. Hope your golf was good to make up for everything

Cheers Chris, played nine holes yesterday and struck the ball as well as I have done so looking forward to the new season. Leicester losing in injury time hasn’t lifted the spirits though.

It's actually riveting in a car crash type of way

My son in law’s lack of golfing etiquette and him talking me through every shot he’s hit

Earache. Got what feels like swimmers ear and it's annoying me like buggery

Football players going down clutching their ankle (usually right one) regardless where they have been connected with (often lightly) and rolling about like a sniper has taken them out with at the ankle. I like to call it Luis Suarez Syndrome.
