Random Irritations

Going to the driving range and a guy rocks up in the next bay with a small basket of balls then proceeds to walk out onto the range and collect 2 large basket sizes of balls to use.
he wouldnt have been using them if I had seem him do that.he would have got a right go from me and if he didnt like it then the proprietors would have been told pdq.
 
having spent the last week and a half off work[and everything else for that matter] with bloody bronchitis ,thought it was flu to start with but a short hospital stay for tests proved otherwise.

Not good matey. Hope you're fully fit soon

I assume the range all had to stop to let him pick them up. I'd have been right on his case and then back into the pro shop to get them to deal with it. What a plank. Shame no-one tried to hit a few "sighters" at him and warn him off
 
Golf club official moaning to me at the 30% loss of members over recent years and saying that they have tried everything.

That would be everything except run a junior section.:(
Without knowing what it is they have done I tend it find that 'everything' is a selective term. It means more of the same, more of what they believe would attract them, not what is needed to attract new golfers or golfers from a different demographic. I have heard it too many times and when you get them to specify in more detail then you can't help but sigh.

This club are actually clueless, sitting twiddling their fingers and shaking their heads to any practical advice offered. Those in charge want to keep it as an old pals club. The younger ones are leaving for more active clubs. Trouble is the old pals are getting older and dropping off. I would give them a couple of years five max.
 
HID got the road fund licence letter today on her car.....all of 20 quid.
That's not the irrigation...

Surely it's costing in the region of 20 quid to print and send the letter and then process the payment and update records......

Having played really well for the Christmas period, coming 3rd in our new years comp on Saturday and missing out by a single point in the roll up yesterday I decided to hit the range and try and work out why last weekend the irons were going left. Somewhere I entered shanksville, population ME. Not happy. Tried pitching and were shanking those. Mega annoyed but going to trust what has been happening and go out in the comp on Saturday and forget tonight happened
 
Work contacts who apparently can't read. Or at best only skim your email before replying to ask you something you've already told them.
 
Folk, in hospital waiting rooms, who think NO PHONE ZONE doesn't apply to them...

And, being advised, by the consultant, not to get my hopes up too high about getting to play this summer...
