At last I thought a game of Golf in the sun, it's finally stopped raining. So off I toddled with my set of clubs to my local club.
As I have spent a fortune over the last year as a non- member I thought it time I joined. So $300 later I am standing at the first tee, gleaming. I tee'd off, the ball seemed to go straight for the first 50 metres and then (as I remembered the last time I played) the ball swerved to the right landing out of sight on a bank in the rough. I made my way to the pro-shop and bought 15 new balls for $40 a bargain by all accounts. I made my way back onto the course to where my ball went, after about 15 minutes all I had found was a Golf ball with Gary written on it. I thought Gary would be a chap I must play against someday, in fact I'm convinced I'll meet him him in the rough one day looking for our lost Golf balls. Well my game got steadily worse over the next 10 holes, I lost another 2 Golf balls, tore a hole in my $50 jumper looking for a $4 ball. I even had a conversation along the way, with myself of course. "Good shot", "Crap shot, you idiot". I thought if I started to argue I'd go home. What a great day I had, expensive but good.
