Many small white worlds with dimples

"Anyone seen leaning out of, or hanging banners from bedroom windows will be severely punished.

Remember: TV cameras don't lie.

Enjoy the Dunhill cup!"


Today the Dunhill Links Cup has started. Many amateur golfers, quite a few professional golfers and celebrities like Catherine Zeta-Jones and Micheal Douglas, will be playing towards the 18th hole of the Old Course of St Andrews in the next four days. And because Hamilton Hall has such a nice position being about 10m away from just that hole, we are made aware of the fact that TV teams are likely to try and catch students on camera...
The police is having meals with us, there is increased security at our entrance door, parking has become impossible and foreign accents more common again. And all I want to do is to sit here without having to be afraid that some TV camera will show me changing live on national TV ;) .

"There is one thing in this world that is dumber than playing golf. That is watching someone else playing golf. What do you actually get to see? Thirty-seven guys in polyester slacks squinting at the sun. Doesn't that set your blood racing?" ~Peter Andrews

Although I quite like golf, I have to say that they do make a point there ;) .

PS: I now found proof that golf is a sexist sport :D . I bought an "experienced", ie second-hand, golf ball from a random shop yesterday. No brand name on it, nothing, except a 70s picture of a girl in a miniskirt. Thought briefly about smuggling it into the Dunhill Links, but then decided not to "attract attention" ;)

random remarks:
But golf really is a stupid "sport"! And for upper class idiots like presidents and ministers, anyway! :D
 
I love golf anyways. it was only after trying it that i realized how hilariously funny it is. i love it.
