December Medal.

A cold day for the start of December meant a low turn out for the Medal competition.

No one broke par and the conditions underfoot were still very 'claggy' so special congratulations to Ray for his eagle on the 17th!

Everyone had a good time though and the Clubhouse was very festive on their return!

Have you heard this one ?

It’s been a long week in the greengrocers ….

It’s been a long week in the greengrocers but it finally gets to Friday night and three best mates - a lemon, a potato and a pea - decide to have a couple of beers after work, as so often happens, soon they’re on a full on pub crawl...

They have a great night, hitting pub after pub , knocking back drinks, doing shots, cheeky Nando’s and all that - but being so genetically different, the alcohol affects them each in different ways: the lemon got very acidic and refluxy; the potato, being a big starchy chap, took the booze in his stride; while the little pea reacted to all the sugar and started to get a bit hyper.

At the end of the night, the three friends found themselves leaving a bar at the top of a tall hill - pea started bouncing up and down excitedly:

"Lads! Lads!” He yells “ I've got a great idea! We’re all vaguely round in shape, let's not get a cab home, let's just roll down the hill!" and before the others could protest he was off - shooting down the hill at a rate of knots.

The lemon lurched after him, but due to his shape he’s rolling violently from side to side as he went, which did nothing for his unsettled stomach.

The potato has a few more lumps and bumps, and so he’s much slower trundling down behind the other two

By the time poor potato bounces his way to the bottom of the hill, lemon is laying there- spewing lemon juice all over the pavement, but pea is still full on - already jumping up and down, telling the others “come on lads!!! that was great, that was great, lets do it again!".

Lemon wants none of it - more lime coloured than lemon now. chundering up his pips but pea doesn’t to care "Come on! let's go again, that was great!".

Potato wearily turns to him and says

"Easy peasy, lemon's queasy.”

Who said?

Did I?

Play Golf or just spoil another walk?

As you walk off the course next time ask yourself the following questions:

Did I enjoy myself?

Have I signed my card?

Did I replace my divots and repair my pitch marks?

You should answer YES to them all!
