Overheard at the LFGSS golf club bar

Hah I saw that and thought “ripe”

may be a little beaucoup for people on here

I have a crack smoking story that I tell every so often…

but to my mind the most important thing is buying proper aged beef mince from a good butcher. You want somewhere that specialises in fancy long-aged steaks

Dude you can't quote yourself.

As I’ve always said, it’s very Golf Club to quote yourself.

old money people are great.

Not a huge fan of nationalisation

Every time I come here, clipboard loaded, you've beaten me to it.

This really stings

I'm in Tonbridge actually

Self-referral to GC here. I went to see some friends in Cornwall last weekend. The plan was for the wives to do some sewing class they had organised, two of the husbands to play golf and me to head off to Bodmin Moor on my gravel bike.

However on Saturday the weather was even worse down there than here in that London and so I binned the gravel ride and the other two binned the 18 holes and said lets go to the driving range instead as at least there was a bit of shelter and then have a cooked breakfast in the clubhouse.

Even more GC was that we rocked up to the course in my mates Range Rover Evoque. That is peak GC right there.

So there I was on the driving range hitting a few balls. Considering I haven't hacked my way around a GC since the late 90's the other two were gutted when I was the first one to chip the ball to land in the 50 yard catch net or whatever it's called.

Fortunately the weather improved and I was able to get out on the bike the next day as they headed back for a round.

I feel dirty.

Surely we need some kind of puritan/evangelical/witchfindergeneral thread for this stuff

Aren't we in it?
There's also the puerile sexist shite thread

but I'd hope self referred GC is a little tongue in cheek?

Catching up with 7 days worth of golf club chat and this stands out a bit

The guys looked bumused

Ha!

I am assuming you have a stand mixer
