We all know how irresponsible golfers are - caring nothing about their own health or the wellbeing of others.

[crowd , mill ,congregate , spray , irresponsible] I have posted many times about my disgust at the absurd closure of golf -last year and this. Sorry for causing confusion.Must try harder next time .

I know I'm no angel myself We could be seeing the end point of covid and internet interaction - people getting abusive with each other straight away - over what amounts to a difference of opinion. Was looking at the course today - it is getting a bit comical - as there is literally no difference to what people are up to versus golf. I don't think people will put up with a closing of anything again. We are at some sort of end point with covid and public opinion. People will even take death of people now (that is the reality) - it wasn't like that at the start. I'm still not mad for a game - or mad for it to open up - as I hate all the chasing of tee times and the hassle of it. I prefer more freedom and choice around golf.

Don’t want to be caught out having to stay and do that when we do get back on course (I’m still hoping Apr 12 with absolutely nothing to back that up bar hope).
