Day 334 - Blue Monday

Another Blue Monday survived..
This one's for my Dutch friends!

Today is apparently "Blue Monday"... Reading the Telegraph online this morning, I see a long list of things that I should be doing.  None of them include going out to play golf with a bunch of friends in Florida.. but that is what I did anyway.

As things turned out, perhaps I should have chosen one of the other options, like stay in bed all day, as just as I had played well on Saturday and Sunday, together I couldn't do anything right.  Best to draw a veil over the whole game: our team came last, I won no skins and hit none of the par three greens either, so no Closest to the Pin Flags either...  The Golf God giveth and taketh away...  But this is one of the reasons why we keep on coming back for more, I guess.

Reminds me of the definition of the difference between a good golfer and a bad golfer: at the end of the round, the bad golfer remembers all his good shots and the good golfer all his bad ones.  I hit a great 3 wood on Hole 8 today.... and then 4 putted.... 'nuff said!

Dinner was late today as we have some visitors coming into town: Mary, Ann and Chris from Burhill are coming here for a week's golf with Kathryn. They will be glad to escape the cold in the UK, though it is January weather here too in Florida and we are about to enter the chillest week since we have been here: blame all those northerners for sending their cold air down south!  The ladies had a good trip and arrived on time at 8 pm driving one of the biggest SUVs that I have ever seen....
