Anyone for Golf?

[JB_MUFC]

I've only just come across the discussion threads on the website and the lad that's organising us coming over has told me there is a golf course nearby.

Should I bring my clubs or save space on the bus for beer?!?

Yes, please do there is another thread somwhere about golf. Their are several of us taking bats a bit nearer the time we can set up a tournament of some kind.

[buckinghampeter]

Yes the golf clubs are still going i could play the first game on Sunday the 11th i am due at the camp site on Friday 9th i am willing to play at any time.

Can i just ask a translation question, when did golf clubs become "bats" or is that a quaint English term,

(I am actually English by Birth but left before learning the whole language)

[buckinghampeter]

No it;s not even an English term; just mine,
i play golf at a golf club

anything that hits a ball is a bat so i include Tennis bat, badminton bat and table tennis bat in my langauge too.

i know its not correct but i just grew up doing it

first time we can prob play is bout 11th or 12th. we can sort a knock out on camp then.u'll find us havin a bit of ten yard bucket challenge

[buckinghampeter]

excellent, cannot remember but fairly sure thier were some other takers as well, so i can see a good texas scramble comming up

[toddy]

yeah think so mate. u a bandit?

[buckinghampeter]

No i'm currently off 24 have been lower but work always gets in the way. To cut a long story short i have not played for 8 months due to me being in the usa and my clubs being in the uk. But i will practice hard for the week in the UK before arriving on the 9th.
