Scottish weather did its thing and changed radically for the afternoon - cold, wet and windy.

Struggled with the swing all day, battled to 1 over for the front nine then 2 over through 14 before a complete breakdown on the closing run into the wind. Probably ended up with my mental "well-being" worse than it would have been if I'd worked the afternoon :ROFLMAO:

Golf health and well being - perfect oxymoron right there :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:

Mrs Imurg has been struggling with a shoulder problem that needs surgery for about 6 months now.
Going Private as the wait on the NHS, even for staff, is massive.
We were looking at mid January earliets as a date but she's just had a call - there's been a cancellation next Wednesday so she's in.
Ironically, it means I can't go back to work until the 10th just in case I catch IT before then and it screws the appointment.
So another 9 days off...and as long as I do the social distance thing I can play golf - weather allowing

I assume you heard from your powers that be on what you could or couldn't do in lessons?? Doubt it of course so think another 9 days off is a safe precaution. Consider it a civic duty protecting those learner drivers in Bucks

The all clear came through at 4.45pm that we can start tomorrow...nothing like giving a decent amount of warning - and thats nothing like giving a decent amount of warning.
All my lot are fine with the extra week off, no tests this year so no panic.

Farcical. Go out and play golf. You owe it to yourself. Keep safe until HID has the op and hope everything goes ok next week

First game back tonight, a friendly against a team top of the league in the division below us. Won quite comfortably 3-1 despite us making loads of changes during the game and players playing out of position.
Made a few decent saves as well ?‍⬛

We had our first training session too, was great to see the lads and kick a ball around again! The game was a good one for me too, one of those where I can make a lot of interceptions, play some nice passes and pretend I'm Ledley King in my head. :LOL:

Same here! Major relief indeed. I am renting temporarily until my new place in Devon is ready in mid-January but I share your feeling for Friday.

My local corner shop have just started to sell bottles of efes draught beer. Now I don’t have to drive anywhere to get them, unless I want several boxes
Tastes much nicer when sat in the 19th at a golf course in Belek. Roll on next September when I can get back out there.

Tony Johnstone commentating on sky sports and having a dig at aim point.
A player walking along the line of his putt trying to feel the undulations in the green. Johnstone says "until i have had my eyes transplanted into my feet i will give that a miss. "

More generous donations from local firms. We were privileged to receive so much stuff from the public and companies during the first pandemic and although we have been bad at times recently we've been nowhere near where we were. That said the stuff we are getting has added some pep into the nursing staff after 2-3 weeks of full capacity and some tricky patients and so gratefully received. People are still so caring and warm and it is much appreciated
