This is a post I finally got around to writing. I’m lying in bed coughing out a lung then painfully swallowing, what feels like tiny razor sharp blades in my throat, as I caught my first ever bout of Covid. During the day, I’m well enough to sit up in bed, read a bit, watch […]
109th Women’s Annual Golf Trophy Presentation & Christmas Lunch
Today was our golf club’s 109th Women’s Annual Trophy Presentation and Christmas Lunch. I was looking forward to this event. We were in teams of three and had a shot gun start at 9am for 9 holes. We all got dressed up in our Christmas costumes as there was a prize for the best dressed […]

Friday Afternoon Golf
Started the drinking on the 11th hole this afternoon during a social round.
Invitation to Join the Heritage Committee
Yesterday I was surprised and delighted to be invited to join the Heritage Committee of the Woodlands Golf Club. Ever since I wrote the article about the fascinating story of the Mayfield Estate that used to be on the golf course grounds since the mid-1800s and demolished in 2002, I’ve had members come up to […]
