Anyone watching the Masters Golf?
Who do you want to win, & why?
What is the best Golf Tourney in the world, the Masters, or The Open? Or neither?
Fave golfer, & why?
Best golf memory?
Anyone planning to watch, on TV or Live, the London Marathon this weekend, or even take part?
I think it is one of THE best things that ever happens in this country. 90% of the Runners do it for charity, & £illions are raised. It might look like fun, but jogging 26 miles in a daft costume can't ever be much fun.
The "Elite" race holds not a jot of interest to me, I like to see the regular folk, doing their charity stuff. Rarely can I watch it without shedding a tear or two, so much wholesome goodness in one event.
Even CTBN runs in it, here he is, next to Orford.
Crich Tramway Museum - excellent choice. Visit Crich Stand, too - you can supposedly see 7 Counties from Crich Stand.
I worked close to Crich for 20 odd years, in Heage, & I had a dalliance with a young lady from Crich, too.
That is borderline chunter.
FIRST WARNING
a feel good thread
Lovely idea
Got off to a pretty bad start though
Golf!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
How can anyone feel good when peeps are talking about golf.
Watch what I want on TV no soaps and no kids programmes just sport golf, marathon, football including FA cup semis (GL Blades) Poker and the odd science prog and film thrown in heaven.
Eat drink and sleep (nap) when I want no interruptions what is not to like.
No arguments no grand kids shouting and screaming in the background not having to listen to the many second hand mobile phone conversations, wife not pestering for odd jobs to be done ..just relaxing.
I recommend it to anyone but it lasts ho so short a time and when they return I will look forward to paying for their summer break too lol.
Have a good weekend.

I certainly hope so Tikay, especially with the nice weather looming.
My weekend starts Tonight where I will be splashing the cash around the MTT tables with Lappy on my right & supper on my Lap. I will be pigging out to the sound of chips goin in on the tables & chips on my plate.
Saturday I will be relaxing at a retirement home (No i'm not that old just yet) but they do have a lovely fishery situated on the grounds with some lovely peaceful scenery.
Sunday is "All You Can Eat" breakfast day - my wife always asks me if I want some more? to which I reply "NO that's all I can eat" - Then it's off to the pub for my usual Sunday pint, dinner & late afternoon nap.
Can't wait. - I feel good already.
Caddyshack.
There's only one thing good about golf. Caddyshack.

To be fair, golf canbe uite interesting to watch someimes, but yesterday was not one of them. I can't remember a duller day in recent Masterrs history
Golf is an excellent game and ideally suited to anyone who is too old or knackered to play real sports. Running doesn't really 'do it' for me. If God had meant us to run then he wouldn't have invented cars now would he?
I have had a well deserved week off work this week and aim to enjoy my weekend too. I have now recovered from my bad back and will be playing a bit of tennis, watching a bit of sport and generally chilling out. I may also play a bit of poker. A highlight would be if we could see the reappearance of Tikay at the Hilo tables for a couple of games.
Ger told me about another poker site with some mouthy Russians on it who apparently rule the roost, so I registered there as Twigletface. We both cashed in a $10 DYM. I then cashed in a $5 DYM. Brilliant!
The eldest is home on leave (he's R.N. like his Ma and Pa were) and it's great to see him of course.
I am happily munching twiglets and sipping some wine, whilst Mr. Mac and the three boys are drinking too much beer, talking nonsense about sport and women, generally being men. I love every single thing about them.
The sun is shining, Brentford are on the verge of promotion, the £2.20 @2.20 deepstack already has one player registered. The wife is out with her sister all day, so poker all day long.
All the best
