27/8/11 The round at Glenelg yesterday in the Legacy - Governors Cup was enjoyable for the weather , the company and the experience.

22/8/11 Sitting here this morning slowly recovering from yesterday’s round. Another second place after an 85 Gross, 72 Nett with 32 putts. Played well enough on the day with no penalties and only 4-5 bad shots that added to the final total.

12/8/11 The post delivered my new set of Titleist AP2 710’s yesterday which helped give the day a bit of a lift. Have been under the influence of a coughing, sneezing cold for the past 3 days, cannot even recall the last time I had a cold in fact. “Free plug for Flu shots flaming good value.” It is not that bad, more of an irritation than debilitating illness. Even so that disgusting four letter word... “WORK” had me inside until 2pm before I could get out and have a hit with the irons.
