Vegas & The Aftermath - Diary

[The Camel]

If you want to make a fourball up , count me in ta.

Sure we could have a few bets on the outcome 

What price can I get that Tony doesn't show up?

If I agree to it, I'll be there, 100%.

I lost all my golf gear in the flood, but that's not really a problem. I virtually gave up golf when poker took over, & now I've not played for several years. I was hopeless when I "retired", so Heaven knows how I'd even connect with the bloody ball now. Fortunately, I'm not in the slightest competitive at golf, I just enjoy the walk, the countyryside, the fresh air, the wildlife, the energy expended gently, that's all I need. In 5 or 6 years of golf, I recall every single time I connected with the perfect sweet spot. Both times, to be precise.

But Flushy, Methuselah, Mr Giblin, Golden Bollox Moult, this is getting tempting.

A chap from next door, Squawky, is a Golf Pro, & a very good friend, & he's promised to help me get my game together. The poor chap has no idea what a daunting task that is.

The Camel has been making noises that suggest he quite fancies a game too.

Definitely, but I need a cuple of sharpening up rounds first (think I've played once in 8 years) before I face you sharks.

I reckon a Blondepoker golf day would go down a treat , in conjunction with

a bit of poker afterwards obviously.

You will NOT be partnering me if you want to wear a QPR shirt on the golf course.

Please, a little decorum is in order.

At least six different logos here, in one of the most commercially astute sports

Corporates and sponsors don't mind sharing space with others

I think poker is quite behind the times

None of those sponsors are in direct competition with one another are they?

I can't see that many companies outside of poker getting involved. In a lot of cases you would be alienating a lot of the audience you are aiming at. It is gambling and gambling = bad especially with the moral majority in the us.

Lolz at all the hustling on this thread.

"I've played once in 8 years"

"I've not played for several years"

"I've been in winter hibernation"

[bookiebasher]

No scarves or man bags either

Shush, I'm setting up a triple range merge.

Gonna be a lot of money to win here.

You wish, fashion icon me.

This appeared next door today.

Karabiner and I vaguely discussed the possibility of this earlier in the year.

Golf, STT, Golf.

Combine the scores for the overall blondepoker champion.

August seems like a good time to host this?

Should add a round of frisbee golf in for a laugh too

You're calling Disc Golf by its real name... I sense a hustle!

I'm pretty awful at all 3 to be honest. I'm not sure I'd be allowed on a real golf course

Why don't you suggest a date and we'll all try and work around that seeing as how you have the busiest schedule.

PS Mondays and Wednesdays are probably the best days if we're goiung to play at Wollaton.
