Apologies for the late start - computer lost my post.....again!
Good evening and Welcome, me in out of this "summer rain" ... Tonight's Tailcock is the "Claret Cup" (well it is the Open) so do come along and dip your bucket in the vat of Tailcock and give it a try.
Due to the inclement weather we feel it best to keep tonight's activities within the confines of the Towers. So to this end we have engaged our favourite local band, The Tone Deafs to play in the ballroom for members wishing to dance and we have also secured a copy of the film classic "Some Like it Hot" which will be screened in the library.
Tonight we will be having another running buffet, for those members who manage to catch it, feel free to indulge, and for those members who are unable or unwilling to give chase, supper has been laid out in the snug, where they will also find a selection of volly vonts, canopies and horses doovers.
Members are free to make use of the facilities here at the Towers, might I add that the indoor pool has felt somewhat neglected lately as members have been making full use of the outdoor pool and the beach. He is hopeful of having some company this evening. We have fired up the hot tub on the North Tower and dusted the cobwebs off the bungee for members who feel the need of a soak or of themselves off our topmost tower towards a moat full of piranhas.............

A warm welcome awaits all who dare enter these portals


carriages at midnight.

LOL, very good DT also very accurate. Didn't know you had seen me play golf before. However I'm an excellent shot when it comes to the 19th !.
Yes, Tony. Waiting to see if son ever comes around.

best beloved always blamed the five iron - despite me having bought him a new one, he still blamed the five iron for his bad golf!
He'll be around, I'm sure Daisy.


Evening your Ladyship.
the ex saw the difference at Brora, a wonderful little seaside 18, Hunters of Brora to distract the non-golfer. The greens are wired off to keep the sheep off!

On 14, a par 5, tee off from the bottom, up over a burn on to a plateau, second shot semi blind over the hill and down into a valley, third shot onto the green on a raised beach ledge. We come over the top of the hill and, lo, there's a sheep to the right of the green rubbing itself into the bank, a distinct hollow being formed from its efforts.

And that is the difference, a bunker - shaped by mother nature and modified by man, whereas a sand-trap is made by man.
It's the universal 7 iron for me, nungate.

Mmmmmm, I'm sure you corrected it though, nungate.
And a honey trap is made by women.

Yes, and often successful, Daisy.
at least we don't have this dreich weather, Lady J, the mists rolling across the 'Burgh Castle, from what the Scottish BC is pushing out on the airways.....
DT, try the course nearest Backworth in Northumberland. Could always beat my Dad there.
Your wish is my command, your Ladyship.

Of course they would broadcast tonight when the weather up here has been super for weeks! A live broadcast on a dreich evening? Typical!
Hoping to be up there in late August/early September for a commission en route to la belle Ecosse.....
LJ any ideas? Hold the Tone Deafs to ransom? Don't suppose anybody would pay.
Debag DT?
Drain the moat?
