A great start to the week when I actually met the great Jack Nicklaus. What a fantastic man. A real gentleman. I could hardly believe he came to our course. Something I won't forget in a hurry. Then on Friday night we had a great time at the Whit Friday Band Contest in Greenfield. Lots of peole and really good playing from all the bands but that was really soured near the end when a man and his on were hit by a bus and the man died. Such a sad end. We could see the man trapped under the bus, Very upsetting. So a mixed week that could hardly have ended in a way we couldn't forsee.
What a sad end to what sounded like a fabulous week for you 10 cl. Life is extremely tragic at times and it can affect you so deeply even if you don't know the individuals involved. Part of the human condition.
Was your son in the band contest?
How traumatic... I am sure it will take a while to get that image out of your mind, and I am sure it will taint what was otherwise a week of great memories, Hope the good ones will help you override the bad ones,,,
Blimey what a shame, it's tragic, how do these things happen? But glad you met your hero and I am sure you will always try to remember the week in a positive way, did Jack acyually play golf there or was he opening some event?
that must have been a shock. Do buses really have a blind spot? I wouldn't have thought it was allowed; and if it is drivers should surely be taking account of it.
