“I don’t believe it!” There was something seriously awry. It was definitely a Wednesday, but hang on; no rain, no clouds – the sky was blue and there was something strange in the sky. Was Victor Meldrew lurking in the shadows?
It was unquestionably the hottest day of the year (not difficult). How we have waited for this moment – we believed we would never see the likes of it again. We even considered changing our golf day to a Thursday, but the Ladies would not have been too impressed with that! Here’s to a long, hot, enjoyable summer season. Cheers!
