Hi there,

My name is Dave and I'm another new member to the Oz Golf family. I happen to be a mate of Courty's (we actually went to high-school together) and I've finally gotten around to joining. Being the parent of a three year old with a second child on the way it seems like talking about golf is going to have to suffice until I get a chance to play more regularly.

About time, Dave. When you planning on getting on the course again?

Welcome Dave.

Any "Courty was a wanker in high school" stories?

Dcanto
7th April 2010, 07:52 PM
I better be careful with any high-school stories - Courty probably has as many stories on me as I do on him and some of them implicate me as well.

Soon... I hope. Glad to see the sun for a change - two weeks of constant rain is enough to drive a person insane.

Talk about a bit of power going to a person's head. Some people did say you were a bad influence in school....

Are you a St Augustines boy?

Sure am, along with most of the NQ OZgolf contingent.

Is Solarman the Patron of this mob ? Senior Member of the GTA (Golf Tragics Association) - for membership enquiries, contact President Tomson or Vice-President Haysey.

If I may be so bold as to answer for Courty - both of us are Saints Boys (Seniors of 1991) and yes we have heard all the jokes about going to an all boys school run by a brotherhood that wears nighties for a uniform. The less said about the brother who was principal during the majority of our time at Saints the better. Needless to say he is no longer in the brotherhood.

On a serious note - I am on the Saints old boys committee (got roped in by Hutchy) and we are trying to get more organised to assist with reunions and the like. If anyone has any suggestions then feel free to drop me a line.

My brother was Dux in 1983, before your time though.

Sorry Courty - stepped away from the computer and did not realise you had already replied. Newbie mistake....

Grade 9 or Grade 10? :lol:

Could be worse, I went to St Stanislaus College at Bathurst!!!!!!!!!!!

Now Red Bend College at Forbes was by far much better!8-)

That's cool, and yes, it was before my time.

Haysey, on the other hand. ;)

Coincidence, but its actually Courty's brother in law who introduced us. I'll never forgive him...

A big thanks to everyone for your kind welcome and a big thanks to Courty for adding me to his prospective list of potential Oz Golf Banning victims.
Cheers,

No wonder you got suckered into the Old Boys Committee!:razz:

Too true - I've been told people take advantage of my good nature. But being of Italian heritage I do know the meaning of Vendetta and my wife thinks I have a hidden vengeful streak.

For Julie's benefit - I actually went against the usual Saints boy tradition of pairing up with a St. Monicas girl, my better-half is from Goondiwindi.

Dave I remember having a few hits with you and courty and I vaguely remember you missing a fairway once.

i hope you've straightened up your game since then.

I went to Saint Augustines from Grade 5 to 12 and finished in 1978 (a fine vintage).

My oldest son went there and finished 2 years ago and I have another son there now in grade 12.

My wife went to Monicas as well (that's where all the dragons came from) but I think may have been expelled. My daughter is now there.

Hi Mike,
Good to hear from you. Unfortunately my game is erratic at the moment but I'm hoping to get back into practising and playing more regularly so that I can try and recapture some past form. Hopefully the recalc of my handicap tomorrow will be kind and it will give me an edge in trying to take some money off Courty next time I get to have a hit with him. :)

haysey

Dave, if you can get sunday morning off. There's a game on in Mareeba?

Thanks Haysey. Got some family stuff on this Sunday so I'll have to take a rain-check (no pun intended).

I am keen for a hit the following week-end and mornings do suit me so if anyone is interested feel free to drop me a line.
