Random Irritations

[Neilds]

113mm in Jan this year around here, a little above average but drier than last year.

Not sure where you have the figures from, but most sites I have seen have Bristol having 130-140 mm estimated rain in January.

I had that a while ago.
Was rather concerned for a couple of hours.
Pain in the whatsit for some days after, but recovery was far better than my first fears.
I was warned about likelihood of recurrence in the years ahead.

Two hours in A&E and I was on my way home this evening with a diagnosis of Bell's Palsy much to my and Mrs V's relief.
Could have been worse.
Good ol' NHS.

Off to bed now.

My first time was scary, Ambulance, blue flashing lights, mri scan , all because they werent 100% it was Bells. Lasted about 6 -8 weeks iirc . So was a lot more relaxed this time , but the difficulty speaking properly is seriously miffing me…..

@Firestormgjc my mum is using a silicon straw for drinking at the moment. That works for hot and cold drinks, folds up into her bag for when she is out. Helps reduce the dribbling that happens. Might be worth thinking about.

Yep. Our course closed again today. The practice area is like a swamp so not even worth practicing short game stuff. Changed the oil in HIDs car instead.

Ours opened one day this week!
Can't understand why. I think the logic is often "We're "open" but assuming no-one is stupid enough to play".
We were.
Gave up halfway.
I asked my partners "How often do you see Pro golfers trying to keep their balance on a fairway?"
They actually closed it yesterday, Saturday, comp day. Almost unheard of because of 1 Proshop revenue
