Looks Can Be Deceiving

We had a change of routine today, playing golf in the afternoon as Phil & Henri were attending a coffee morning with former teaching colleagues.

With Sophie still not well enough for school, I dropped Tess off at Kate’s at lunchtime so she could look after Sophie while I headed for the golf course.

The photo from behind the 16th green is misleadingly idyllic: despite the blue skies and fluffy clouds, the wind was probably the strongest we’ve ever played in, blowing our trolleys over or sending them freewheeling past us as we played shots. Given the conditions, we did well to get round in just a few shots over handicap - in fact, we did well to get round at all!
