OULD SODWARDS AGAINTomorrow the blog is off on its first 07 visit to
Norn Iron. So brace yourselves for a fresh round of golfing scenes and yet more views of the Mountains of
Mourne. Golf may actually be minimal as the BBC Blether Centre is
threatening us with a 'Cold Snap' which they hope will mean blizzards, frigid
Artic conditions, lots of dead Daffodils, frozen Frog Spawn (by a timely appearance, pond side yesterday, I prevented a lot of premature ejaculation by Les Frogs) and general misery. The Royal County Down Golf Club (
PBUI) will be hosting the Walker Cup in
September so is being over protective of the links-any sign of frost, a flake of snow or a small earthquake they close the course in a flash.
Forunately we are not travelling today as Stena Line is given over to Red Nose Day, but tomorrow could be worse as there is a £15 special offer to go to Belfast for St Patrick's Day. I hope by the time we take to the sea at 1445 the would be revellers will have gone ahead and stuck into their third pints.
But I would not count on it.
Given a choice I would go with the Red Noses rather than the Green vomit.
