Aint this just like a golfer !! I swear one day we'll be fucking knee deep in pussy and dick at a party and hear some geek talking about backswing ...........SURELY there are already the odd golf society about you could use for what you describe mate :-) I mean our local pubs are lousy with the bloody things , you can spot them by the bad jumpers and lack of conversation.
Golf, sorry, I will meet you at the 19th.
Well I think it is an excellent idea.
I get invited to quite a few golf society days ( this is the male part of us talking now ) but have to decline the vast majority as they are during the week when I am working. I also get numerous email adverts offering very cheap rounds of golf combined with first rate hotels in some excellent locations but unfortunately my partner does not play so that is a no no.
If we were going away for the weekend to meet a few more couples for the weekend for some golf, shopping, pampering, good company and then perhaps a little fun later on then we would definitely be interested.
Hope we can get a few people on board with this, it could be fun !!!
christ alive! having endured Mr C's numerous golfing conversations in the chatroom I now have to see it all on the forum as well!
Go on you lot - go play golf and leave us to the more important issues like finger knitting and the tea vs coffee debate.
Great stuff i just had a new set of clubs to take it up again.
Keep me informed if anything happens :thumbup:
Hi all
As usual the world is very divided about golf with a "love it or hate it" situation but definitely no middle ground.
I was very much in the "hate it" camp until two years ago when a few friends dragged me kicking and screaming on to a golf course where I found that 30 years of playing squash helped me become half decent and I became evangelical about the game. Four hours of steady excercise, great banter and camaraderie and getting away from desks and mobile phones can't be all that bad.
"A bad day at golf is better than a good day at work !!"
To all non believers I just ask you to try it. If you hate it fair enough but I think a good percentage will change their mind about the game after 4 hours of walking around some of the best countryside they will have ever seen.
Hope we can manage to get a decent number involved but a nice Saturday afternoon four ball whilst our partners go out shopping for some special clothes for later on that night would be fine. Lets try to make it happen.
C'mon all you golfers. There must be more who would like to combine a weekend away with some golf during the day and a club at night !!
Count me in on this one....it could be a fun weekend...
In 2005 i organised the first SH golf day here in the NW.....won by "iluvminis".....its about time we had another one...
Keep me in the loop...
RWL
count us in too - we'd love to play a round and then play around
(just hope laffs knee will be up to it by the time summat is organised)
.
I only starting playing two years ago and struggle to get round in under 100 so I am no superstar myself so I wouldn't worry too much about the standard as we could match up everyone in fourballs etc with similar stds etc.
if you score using stapleford then everyone gets a fair chance of winning.
What are the prizes going to be I wonder.........
Just trying to keep this near the top to keep the momentum going as I am sure there must be 100's of golfers on the site who would love to combine a weekend of golf with a weekend of other more sensual activities but they might not check out the forum much.
