Re: Daily Quiz anyone?
Yes thanks, quite happy with 16 over at Pyecombe. Treated myself to a new adjustable Ping driver after trying out a demo for a few weeks. Incredibly it adds a good 30-40 yards on my drives, so it goes even further into the woods! 
The slow play did have it's humour, watching the fella in the three ball in front take 5 minutes to prepare for a drive then top it 40 feet, or spend 5 minutes lining up a putt but never holing one. 
Lovely day in autumn sun though, especially becuse this fair weather golfer here will go into 3 months hibernation soon!

Re: Daily Quiz anyone?
Morning all. Back last night from the wonderful La Gomera in the Canaries, bit chilly here! Met some lovely people who helped me avoid the Spurs game for which I will be eternally grateful! Place we stayed has a small but brilliant army of superb staff, one of who for some reason asked me to do the Tuesday night Quiz. They gave me the questions which were so difficult I thought I would get pelted with rotten fruit by the participating residents so after checking it was ok for me to do so, WHO online came to my rescue, especially Random Trivia and a good evening was seemingly had by all, along with a very appreciated supply of free brandy whislst I was on the microphone!!
Here we go again,.
