A frustrating morning: left the house promptly for a trip to the barbers - KlassCuts (or is it ClassKuts) in Stoke d'Abernon - either way, I can recommend them!) only to find that I hadn't been quick enough and that others had beaten me to it. This meant that I got the opportunity for my bimonthly read of both the Sun and the Mirror. Interesting to read the very different accounts of yesterday's prime ministerial "debates": you had to wonder whether they were reporting on the same events!Thence a trip to the DX facilities near Heathrow to collect my newly US-Visa-stamped-passport. Not easy to find (particularly using my car's aged SatNav!) and, once I got there, even more difficult to locate the correct Reception. Third time lucky and then a (very) long wait before before finally being handed my document pack. [Memo to self: next time, pay the £18 to have the passports delivered to my home address!]
Fortunately the afternoon had more to offer. First on the agenda was an hour or so working with Mike, our Head Professional, to get the draw done for this year's Scratch Knockout and to sort out a few other competitions. Then, with the sun coming out and definite signs of spring (though still a chilly wind!), Mrs L and I had a very pleasant eight holes around the Old Course, followed by a pint of Youngs and a slice of carrot cake (one each that is....).
Modern technology came to the rescue in the evening: I got to watch the England football international on SkyGo on my laptop whilst we both caught up with the latest episodes of Indian Summers on Sky+. Who said men cannot multi-task?
