Finally had a golf lesson in my late forties. After countless summers of really shite play (I don't play much and I've never been round in under a hundred).

He put his hand on my right shoulder and said "lock it and don't move it" then left.

I'm now f'in Ballesteros.

I'm sure no one will judge you, as long as it's consensual..

This is random one but I was speaking to a friend of mine whose recently recovered from an illness, he was telling me how when he was in hospital he was getting all these people coming out of the woodwork family/friend asking how he was, going on facebook sending get well soon messages. Even family or friends he hadn't heard from in years. Soon as he got out and got better he heard nothing from them again. All this sounded familiar when i was in hospital and had the similar experience.

 

I know you might ask my point is, it's just though it's funny how people only seem interested in you when your ill.

How much does he contact them when he's not ill? Contact with family members and is a two way street. I been criticised by some members of my family for not having much to do with my dad over the years, but he, despite admitting to my sister that he wanted to see me, never tried contacting me, even by letter. He always had my address and phone number. But when he was ill recently, which subsequently led to his death, I was there for him helping out. People are just offering support, showing that even though they have busy lives or that you've wronged them in the past, when you're in dire straits they'll be there for you.

Facebook friends are not all real friends.

How many of your friends would you say happy birthday to on fb compared to how many you'd send a card to, or even better, go and visit?

Facebook is a more convenient way of keeping in touch. You can even send a message while in your pyjamas if you so wished to.

Had a meeting at Celtic manor today. What a fantastically beautiful place and stunning resort. Top quality service and catering there.

Meeting went really well I got plenty of praise from my peers and dealt with plenty of potential customers so things look promising going forwards.

Dads funeral today. Went as well as these things can go.

Far too much food left over though, you never know how many people are coming to a wake, it's not like they RSVP. Anyone like cheesecake? lol

 

I hope everything went well man. 

 

You'll be eating mini sausage rolls for weeks!

Think its about time I gave a new update on my son.

 

Still cant walk or talk but he is progressing really well with his physio. Getting much stronger in his arms and legs so we are hopeful that he will naturally want to try and move when his muscles are stronger. He looks like he wants to move just doesn't know how. He went to a charity coffee morning last week where some people donated money into his physio fund (£200). The generosity we have received is amazing.

 

We have seen a huge progression in his development but still a long way to go. His physio is helping him out massively to the point where he is using a walker now (we still have to hold him and encourage his leg movement but he does really well)

 

So now a slice of good fortune that came my way on Tuesday. My wife wants a 30th party so we are hiring the Kirby sports club. We went Tuesday night to pay deposit and I had £2.50 on me so thought I would put it in the bandit. I checked and the bandit said on the last spin it paid out £4 so thought it would be a waste of money and sat back down. 5 minutes later I thought f*** it and put it in. £2.50 went straight through so opened my wallet to scrape my last 50p. Put it in and it said to hold 3rd reel. Nice one straight on the board.

 

Tells me to go all the way :D (to people who don't know this means you wont lose and you have won jackpot)

 

Jackpot was £100

 

IT REPEATED

 

£3 into £200 :thumbup:

 

My wife had her back to me talking about the party cost and getting ready to pay a deposit. I stood there and pressed the collect button and waited for my wife to turn around after hearing the coins drop. Paid for most of the party there and then with a huge pile of £1 coins lol

 

All in all a very good nights work
