So.... Got myself a Circa No.3. I actually got it for silly money, it will need some love but I actually rather like the idea of making it mine. In an ideal world I would like one with yellow headcover and paintfill and this is red and red but as I say, I got it for a song. Ill post some pics when it lands with me next week.

I take it the owner of Scotty one is a certain 6 foot five great big lummox?

Just tell her the owner wanted yours back, and you couldn't refuse. Say you'd be lost without it, and need to buy a replacement.

That way its not your fault. It's fundy's.

If it needs full refurbishment then I believe that the assistant pro at Leighton Buzzard does full Scotty refurbs, not sure what he charges though

You can't just go buying a large item like that without expecting flack, you've got to approach this on the down low and play the long game.

Plant the seeds that a new putter will help improve your game, have the golf on tele this weekend and mentioned that X is playing the putter you would like, leave it at that, if she questions you, change the subject and go make a cuppa or pour a glass or wine. Leave it a day or so, then practice you putting in the house, but make sure that when HID is in view you purposely miss the cup, utter just so she can hear but do not speak directly to her "I think the head is twisted" and "That's going to be expensive to fix, may have to look at new one", then if she questions you, it's "sorry love didn't know you were there, would you like a cuppa"

Bring her home some flowers, when she says "You've bought a new putter haven't you?" you can reply "not at all, I bought them for you because I love you". The plus side to this is that you may not get the putter, but you may get a little action later on, a good side affect of flowers I find :)

Just keep planting little seeds and let the thought mature and as sure as eggs are eggs, a time will come where she will turn to you and say

"Awww for crying out loud, will you stop bleating on about that bloody putter and just go buy it, anything for some peace and quiet"
