I had this few months ago.. to be fair my drive was on his fairway.. and he played my ball defo .. into a ditch aswel I was like excuse me that was my ball and he was really aggressive that it was his.. I said u playing Titleist? Yes his reply

Well that was a Wilson staff that you just shoved in the ditch thanks

Don’t get his anger cuz his ball was 30 yards nearer his hole (they were up and down fairways) so he hadn’t reached his yet

And I was the one now without a ball lol

Well, at least you saw them do it. I hate when you get to where your ball should have been, and you know another group were just there, you can't find your ball and you reckon one of them's picked it up but you can't be sure. :LOL:
 
Someone paying by echeque (never heard of it until last week) for an item I had for sale on EBay. Buyer was pestering me to send it despite the payment not clearing in PayPal.
I booked a delivery in good faith and then got the email this morning that the payment was unsuccessful, luckily the item is still at home but I’m down shipping charges. You definitely win and lose some on Ebay.
 
Turning up after work for the course to be inundated with P&P's. I thought we were suppose to be a private members club. Not helped by a group of 10 of them mooching by the putting green for 20 minutes and could easily have filtered onto the 1st and not caught anyone up but then wandered onto the 10th as I nipped into my locker to put the chipping balls away and head out on the back nine. Now faced a dilemma of going out behind several groups of our more elderly women in their Thursday 9 and wine game plus a host of green fees on a very slow front 9 or waiting behind these idiots. Decided I was getting too stressed to go out and enjoy it so retired to the bar to vent my frustration and have a soothing beer. In two minds to ask the question as to when club policy allowing so many green fees to turn up and play changed (if it ever did) and why they are being allowed out on the back 9 if they are only paying for 9 holes when I thought that tee was left for members to use in such situations

How did you come to decide they were idiots?
 
All my GM notifications going straight to my junk folder, for no apparent reason and it's only GM notifications doing this!
This has been an intermittent thing since 2017 and nobody seems to know why!
Aaaagggghhhh.
