So…. What did you get?

Have heard that Krakow is a great place to visit.
It's a really nice, long weekend place. Spring or autumn is probably best, summer can be a bit oppressive, winter too cold. Interesting trips if you want them, good to wander around, pricing okay when you are there. We enjoyed our trip this year, May.
 
A ping g400 7 wood, some adidas tour 360 shoes, a couple of golf tops, waterproof trousers, a glove and a puma cap. Lovely. Oh and some tees out of a cracker, which are now in the bin…
 
Pair of Jordan 6 shoes
A dozen Balls
Red Nike Sweater
Some horrendous Royal and Awesome trousers that are going back.

Not a bad haul
 
A 5 litre keg of Everard's Sleighbell winter ale 4.5% from brother-in-law.

A bottle of Fletchers 10-year-old Tawny Port from brother.

They know what I like!
 
Brother got me a ping 1/4 zip and ping water bottle thingy.
Bought myself a couple of adidas tops.
Got the wee girl her own 7 iron. She clipped a few away this morning in the garage.
 
Some Seed balls, a Castore baselayer, Under Armour trousers, Druids joggers. Exactly what I asked for - as experience tells us, that's the only way to do it. 😁

The wife and I exchange bags of gifts we have bought for ourselves to be wrapped

She tried to surprise me this year with a bottle of the aftershave I wear

However I bought her a new phone as an extra present, was setting it up Saturday and had to log in her Amazon which gave the present away as your order is arriving today 🤣
 
Golf top
12 Chromesoft balls and a round at Galgorm in Northern Ireland.
Should enjoy them.


Played galgorm for the 1st time last year. It absolutely battered me from the first tee to the last. I was off my game and it was it was carnage.
Really can't wait to have another go at it.

Looking forward to it. It's from my son who lives in Belfast who is taking me when we visit him.
 
I got exactly what I hoped for, i.e. nothing. Not one single present, golf related or otherwise. I don’t want our children spending money on me - they have increased mortgages to cope with. Their company, and calls is all I need.

I'm taking the parents to Disney on ice with us as their Xmas present

They love seeing the kids faces

They like you don't want their kids wasting our money on him. However they been so helpful with childcare I don't mind treating them now and again

We went in a November, years ago. While it was cold with snow on the ground, I think it enhanced the trip to Auschwitz. Stating the obvious, it's a really sobering experience, the sheer horror of the place and what these poor souls went through in my opinion is near impossible to imagine. One of the many things about the site I'll never forget is how cold I was with lots of layers, thick coat, hat, gloves and scarf, none of which was available to the camp occupants.

I'm looking to take my lad this year, really is somewhere everyone should visit at some point.
