Have either of you ladies ever considered a career in the lucrative field of Design Associate?   Of course, your mangy dog would have to learn how to do an extended site visit.

"Well, I used to restore golf courses, but they weren't sympathetic enough to the original intent."

"No, I always crouch like this, an account of I'm actually quite a short man".

"KNOW Devereux Emmet? I WENT with him".

"Why are you looking at me like that? I'm telling you, you can build a good golf course ANYWHERE"

Only because I didn't want Jim to win by acclamation.

What a great belly laugh! (and, trust me there ain't many better bellies than the FBD's...)

'Because leaving Seattle for Oakworth to pursue their career in gca had ended in such abject failure, Frasier and Eddie found they had to supplement their meagre railway income by discussing gravel porosity with petticoated 'rock' groupies'.

OR

'It is a little-known fact that the notorious 'Knicker-waving' scene from 'The Railway Children' is single-handedly responsible for the choice of Red Flags on most of the UK's Links golf courses.'

(You really need to have seen the movie for that one)

OR

Jenny: "Bernard, you may well have been gifted Emmet's finest chapeau in his will, but at least Alister's bonnie Tam O'Shanter doesn't make me look like Freddie Mercury."

All rather pathetic compared to this much loftier company. Brilliant, Gents!

Martin,  glad you're enjoying.    ;D

Perhaps one more...





"Although they kept up their most pleasantly fetching "game faces", it was becoming frustratingly apparent to the two young streetwalkers from the East End district of Whitechapel that they were getting nowhere in trying to seduce Devereux, all dressed to the nines in his finest crusin' gear."

Now pay attention lassies...Don't think for one second that that Alister MacKenzie chap is one who can be trusted.  He's a regular Dr. Jeykl and Mr. Hyde. When he's sober, he's just a regular bloke, but when he imbibes from his flask he turns into a wild man.  Eyes popping out, frothing at the mouth, fire-breathing, barking orders left and right...all for what?  To build these wild freaks of nature he calls a golf course...I say poppycock!!!

Tick, tick, tick, tick, tick.........

A lovely faux-leather Kingsbarns tee-bag (yes, I STILL have a few left!) to the lucky winner.

Good luck.
