Random Irritations

With Club Champs this weekend, biggest comp of the year and apparently we can expect thunderstorms. :mad:

I’m off on a golf trip Sunday-Thursday , hever castle, East Sussex national then princes

Forecast to piss down all week

Thanks for that..
 
Delivery options with some online retailers. I ordered enough to qualify for free delivery and expected it to be dispatched by a slower method as it was free (2nd class post etc). What actually happened was that they sat on my order for 4 days then sent it next day delivery. I can accept a cheaper posting method if it is free but not a lower level of service in dispatching the order.

Similar, I'm off to Northshore at Skegvegas with the lads from Thursday to Sunday... weather warnings may be issued. :eek::eek::mad::mad::cry::cry:
 
I've never been there before Bob is it that bad...
I'll leave everything at mhome and take what's needed out with me in the bag then.

The car park is yards from the A1 and is a quick getaway for passing scrotes.
I think they've improved security recently but forewarned is forearmed.
 
Roadworks, just appeared as if by magic (weren’t there 4pm yest) just down the road leading to a massive queue of traffic outside. However roadworks interactive map online says no roadworks there planned within 12 months lol

Wonder what their doing

Dealing with an emergency if it's not planned roadworks would be my wild guess.

Spot on. Power cut Sunday. High voltage cable replacement. One of those that the work is on pavement but they take out half the road for safety (fair enough) little annoying they have put a crossing there aswell making it 3 way light.. when I walked the dog there I just crossed when the light changed direction, more time than the crossing normally gives you
 
Bet you cannot do one deliberately.:eek:
Sometimes that is the cure.
I did manage to do it three times in a row. Not deliberately though. :LOL: My last round I managed to shoot 83 with not a single shank, so fingers crossed on that one.. I was just focusing on turning my left hip through the swing and results were positive.

My pro would put a coin about three inches in front of the ball and about two inches inside the line. He told me to feel that my follow through went over that coin. That really helped me groove a swing away from a shank which was definitely my bad shot.

Also practicing a few pitches where you feel like you’re hitting out of the toe helped to get that feeling of not letting the club get too far away from me.

IS that a recent thing. Was a member there for 3 years and never saw any incidents of theft from cars.
