Dream the dream
Great to see all the Boards lads back in a wet and windy east coast of Dublin. The weather acted up - but was still a great day on a great course.
Woke up this morning and it was like a dream with a slight hangover, delighted with my first Boards outing win - after many years of trying and only a few top 3 places - lost a few times on countback. I've known for a good while now I'm crap - but never give up. WHS has seriously put manners on the handicaps this year.
I'd like to thank my playing partners - Benny (always a shocking hilarious story) - Tiger (always good for the bet) and the good man himself (break 80) one of the few sound Cork men out there. First time I won a fiver from Tiger - as he would never play me for one before.
39 pts - with 9 lip outs - an eagle - nearest the pin and a 4 hour round and 9 pints after in the clubhouse. Was beaten by 2 yards on the long drive by the new lad (BigFúckoffDriver - I think is his user name) with a 54 inch driver (seriously lads what is the society rules on this ****) , he was sticking a towel on it on 10 - to check wind direction. Like, come on!
In the clubhouse some dude was saying that there was a virus somewhere in China and it will shut the whole country down / golf and pubs. He had me going for a while - but laughed so hard when he said pubs would be closed in Ireland
:D:D
Benny was saying after, that he is thinking of getting Blades - I jokingly asked him " have you got that virus your man was on about"
Catch all at next outing - enjoy the good days lads - you just never know what is around the corner.
Fair play Golfgraffix getting the 18 in - and Space for wearing them trousers in public.
Catch all again - "All the pubs closing for a year":D:D:D - the characters you meet at these outings.
Head cases / eccentrics and extremists - got to love it.0 -

I remember that headbanger on about the china virus in the bar after.
Thankfully I left after 7 pints of creamy Guinness as I had a long drive back to Cork.
Great Company as always with Benny and Tiger and of course Fix.
That story on the 10th tee from Benny had me in stiches.
I will give him a year and see does this clean living and celibacy is everything he said it would be.
As usual I had to hand over the fiver to Tiger.
I don't mind to be honest when he told me the price of his new clubs.
Another 200 payouts from me will cover the cost of the driver.
We can start on the irons after that.
Fix. Don't be upset.
I had a complaint from the greenkeepers about pitch marks after our round.
They said it's acceptable on the course as they saw you replacing them every time but they recommended you alter your angle of attack when you have the putter in hand.
Something about too much practice on the beach.
I will update the GOTY in a few weeks as I am heading off to Portugal on a golf trip Tuesday for 2 weeks.

Yea but you cheated. That ball couldn’t have been plugged on the 14th, sure the man in the moon saw it take a bounce.FixdePitchmark wrote: »Dream the dream
