So, having picked up the lentils, wallpaper, smoked turbot trimmings and the other essentials for the week I scoot over to the magazine section of our local Sainsburys to purchase Golf Monthly.

5 minutes are then spent searching amidst the bosomy lads mags and the nerdy computer gamer mags. No sign of Golf Monthly, however they did (and I kid you not) sell "Cycling Weekly" and had a large stock of this month's issue.

Cycling Weekly? What can you possibly need to know about riding a bike on a weekly basis? You sit on a bike, turn the pedals and try not to fall off. If you have a bell, you can go "ding" at passers by. That's about it, I have just summed up their entire editorial content for the next 50 issues.

Come on J Sainsbury, get a life.

Rant over (but expect more, winter is coming).
 
You could always take out a subscription which would save you money and also save you many minutes of fruitless searching for your favourite golf mag. Plus everyone likes getting things in the post. :)
 
Yeah I should get a sub. I've only been buying GM for a few months but the sub seems like good value and the content and quality of writing in the mag is the best there is.
 
Cyclists - Don't get me started with those lycra-clad tos&ers that cycle two abreast on rural roads, claiming they have as much right as you to be on the road (they should charge them road tax!), then gesture at you as you cut them up trying to get past for an after work Wednesday evening tee time.
Dressing like you are in the tour de france with those polka dot skin tight arrangements (when you're actually an average bloke from an office) should not be allowed, Get out of my way!! Honk!
We should boycott Sainsburys collectively until they have a reasonable supply of golf mags in their newsagent bit.
 
What about cyclists with golf clubs on their backs, birdieman? When I was younger I used to cycle 7 miles into Nairn with my bag on my back simply because there were no annual lockers left at my club. Ah, foolish youth.
 
Yes John but I bet you cycled those 7 miles in normal clothes and hugging the edge of the road, fully aware of traffic trying to get by you. I too cycled with clubs on my back in my teens, only a mile or so though! It's those head down pairs taking up half the road that need sorting, why don't they just get a Kawasaki and be done with it?? They're about the same price as a Cannondale anyway!
 
the belgie is one of the good guys...has backed me up more than once in the face of unreasoned and misguided golf opinions on this forum.
Anyone from Fife has to know golf -went there on holiday in July, really like the coast all the way from Aberdour to Tentsmuir, a golfers paradise and a seafood paradise too. Got some fantatstic lobsters from Crail harbour, only available on a Saturday morning though.
My golfing attire is pretty dull really, not a big fashion fan, as long as it's waterproof and warm that'll do me.
 
Tesco's sell this mag aswell. I was out shopping with my wife the other day and seen it on the shelves I couldn't bring my self to look through incase anyone seen me. I started to laugh when I spotted it LOL

It's Golf Monthly , not Razzle!

I didn't realise golf was so embarrasing?
 
Sorry clubchamp, should've realised you weren't referring to our glorious GM publication!
 
By the way
next time your up the east coust pop in to St Monans,there is a fish wholesalers on the main road that fillet it for you and sell it really cheap straight of the boat!
 
Probably more inclined to pop into the Indian takeaway just along the road!
 
Went to the fish shop in Anstruther on the way back from Kingsbarns (just to round off the perfect day!) and had the best fish supper I've ever had. Made to order, queue out the door. Discovered it wasn't even the world famous one which was round the corner!
