It makes me wild that I have to pay for the same ball over and over again. ![]() Had a complete meltdown once (on the 18th too), and put 4 into the pond in front of the green. Finally decided to play safe and chipped up to within about five yards of the edge of the lake/pond/whatever. Chipped straight into the water again. Thought, right, f*ck it, last go. Totally scuffed it. Had so much dodgy spin on it that it skipped across the surface of the pond, bounced onto the green to within about a foot of the hole. We were playing Stapleford. Lost more balls on that one hole than I lost during the entire rest of the year. |

Good grief HM, at the 18th as well
![]() I don't mind shelling out for overpriced razor blades personally, getting the cheap ones is just no good for me. It's only 2 quid but I don't buy The Racing Post anymore, it's just a bookies advertisement with prices they won't honour. |

Photographs taken - I was in downtown Oakland and asked a local gentleman nearby who was doing nothing if he'd be so kind as to take our photograph in front of the crazy looking mural and concrete combo - he said 'sure, for a dollar' and after agreeing he said 'each'.
Two dollars to press a button, ffs. He looked like Reverend Reggie White so didn't argue. |

Razor blades a good call.
Was in the local supermarket, 3, or maybe 4, replacement blades, 16.45 euros. I noticed a 20 pack of bic for 2.89. Do the job lovely, well, apart from the blood and that. I remember someone on here saying about how alcohol makes blades better, I tried that, it really works too. I downed a bottle of whisky, got shaved, cut myself to ribbons and never felt a thing. ![]() |

downtown Oakland
![]() Tbf Bongo you're lucky he didn't just take off with your camera.Mate of mine out there used to run a Thrifty depot downtown and the amount of attempted robberies at their garage and petrol station was unbeleievable.It doesn't get much blacker than Oakland though. Air for tyres is neevr pleasing And £7 for going over an hour in Manchester isnt good |

Anything that's 10% higher than normal . (unless there's a feckin good reason)
can't think of any one single item though -almost everything has a price i guess |

By:
@ Liamcol, I'll pay the 20 bucks for decent razor blades any day. If I used a Bic I'd need a blood transfusion afterwards. |

I'd actually already won by that point, barring one of the guys holing from off the green! It was at The Vale in Cardiff (where they play the Welsh Open). The weather was appalling and played right into my hands. I'm normally relatively accurate but get no distance whatsoever and can putt, whilst my three mates are all big, but erratic, hitters. The wind was doing all sorts of stuff to their shots but mine were at least staying on the fairway. We had a good laugh at how the Ryder Cup would go (same weekend the next year, different course, but still South Wales). Believe it or not, the weather actually looked like it was better for them! |

Had to throw away my golf shoes after that weekend, they were so b*ggered. They were getting a bit old anyway to be fair.

when i look at prices i wonder how people can afford to live ! - median wages are shockingly low or prices very high

By:
HM isn't the Wales Open played at Celtic Manor where the ryder cup played not the Vale.
The Vale a great course , that's where Andy Powell stole that buggy when drunk and went off down the motorway !! |
|
By:
Think you're probably right on both counts. Think that it's either the Welsh PGA or the Welsh Nationals that are held there, and it's definitely where Andy Powell had his little 'incident'. Quite a feat, it's not all that easy to navigate onto the motorway from there!
