Today was the second day of the Ladies Autumn Meeting - and boy did I feel for them when, at around 2 pm, the heavens just opened and the rain poured down: I had chosen a good day not to play golf! Instead, it was time for a haircut, where they know I am Captain this year and I was questioned relentessly about what had happened at the Club a few weeks ago at a certain wedding: I remained schtum!
Back home to watch Prime Minister's Question time, Corbyn-style. An interesting watch, after all the hype, and all will probably be satisfied with the outcome. Cannot believe that the radio-phone-in-style questioning will last as the PM essentially gets off scot-free but the quieter tone and absence of MPs' braying tones was certainly welcome.
Duly shorn (or should that be Sean?), my next job was to take the Tesla to the service centre to have its wheel replaced: when the tyre had been damaged the other day, they had simply put a new wheel on and taken mine away to have it repaired.
A 45 minute hike over to Heathrow went smoothly and I then spent the next 2 hrs in their "customer lounge", using the WiFi and taking advantage of the free coffee to while the time away whilst they worked on the car: fascinating to look though to the workshop and see all those new cars being readied for delivery.
Then back to the Club where I called in at the Ladies Prizegiving: wow! - so many people all dressed up to the nines and lots of silverware on show for the various competitions - it was very impressive. I needed a quick word with the Lady Captain (and Mrs Captain) after which I beat a quick retreat as I was definitely not in the right place.
I had to go to the Club as we had a Club Committee meeting in the early evening. This was the first such to be attended by the new General Manager, Matthew, and all passed off well. We made a number of decisions, of a golfing nature, which I shall have to share with the members. Afterwards, a sociable drink signed off the evening.
