Well folks, mark down the date, the 11th of May 2012 is a historic day in the life of Lord Furnival. I finally, at the 10th time of trying won on the golf course.
Whilst it might seem that it has all been part of an elaborate hustle, I can confirm that it has not, and that finally I am beginning to strike the ball well. Actually, had it not been for the fact that I still had the finesse of a raging bull elephant around the greens, I might have even posted better than I did. Still, thoroughly enjoyable to win a few greenbacks to put towards the Myrtle beach trip I have coming up. A fairly unknown quantity this golf tournament I have been lured into playing. The only things I know for sure, are that each of the 48 participants will be trying to fleece me of my dollars, I won't be able to understand any of the Southern Carolina drawl, and the average age of Myrtle beach is 71. Let us see what they make of Harris tweed, red corduroy and the Queens English I say. Lord F is going to go down a storm, but I shall need to have my wits about me, me thinks.
I am taking a few days off from the tournaments which have been ruling my life, to make sure I don't start talking to shadows, or trying to communicate with the mother ship. They are very mind numbing, the lengthy periods of concentration combined with the senseless table chatter one has to endure. Sun, golf and Lady Furnival should take care of the R and R, then back to the grindstone on Monday. OOOH, that reminds me, Lady Furnival Roast luncheon on Sunday, I will definitely let you all know about that (I would argue that hers are the best in all of the lands), what a way to end the weekend.
Be Lucky
Lord F
