Not posted for a while.

I have a new car!!! A BMW Z4 – an impulse purchase and I must put a picture up in the next day or so. Got the car on Friday morning from Barons BMW in Hindhead.

Golf worth reporting on too. Played Bill Talbot last years captain in the semi final of the Parker Cup yesterday afternoon and won 4 and 3. A much closer match than the prior games. I was 3 up after 5 and level after 8 holes and 1 up at the turn. Got to 2 up after 11 and held that until the 15th where a nice soft drive got me to the green to win the hole. I then went to pieces and could not hit a ball once the pressure was off. Played a few strokes under handicap and putted well. Bill had a good game too so a nice afternoon.

Last week played my new 4 ball / foresomes partner Brain Marquard. A nice chap from SA – ex Old Mutual – who lives in Dockenfield. He is 70 and has a good short game so we should do well.

The week before played in the 1st medal of the year with Paul Kelly and ? – can’t remember his name.

Work continues in Hove and is quite interesting.

Bridget’s birthday tomorrow and so should be nice to have the day off and spend with her. Planning to see my Granny (who is 102 tomorrow) and then go to Southampton – John Lewis and than maybe a pub lunch.

Had a nice meal this evening with the family at Bon East.
