    Dan’s decision today will determine my golf direction and the direction our lifestyle will take for next 12 to 24 months.

    The results looks like you might have to give the Lang Lang membership away? Might have to join Cranny?

    Sadly looks that way Francie, as DANSWALL looks like being there for some time.
    Plenty of options inside 25km. such as Cranbourne, Ranfurlie, Settlers run, Sandhurst Pat river, Centenary park

    We might even move down the other side of DANSWALL next year as a good chance the same thing will happen again.

    How about you, Southern would be inside your leg rope limit.

    Yep….17 ks away but we have to wait a while for the full members to have a go before us. Only allowed 2’s at the moment so a trip up to Beacy might be on the cards?

    Beacy on line green fee booking system not showing available tee times.

    Beacy is only allowing pairs, no comps.

    People say that nothing is impossible, but I do nothing every day.
    No championships worth mentioning in recent years.
    Progress is man's ability to complicate simplicity.

    I’m not religious, but with Dan not allowing believers to pray for something better, one could assume that he bats for the other side.

    These restrictions really are ridiculous. Previously (a step or two back), we could have up to 5 guests which enabled our weekly get together of four old farts sharing a few drinks and snacks. Now that we’re all bubbling along quite nicely, with no coronavirus for more than 6 months, we can have 10 people from two households if they’ve bubbled together, but I can’t have 3 people from 3 households. They’re not even allowed to go anywhere where they might catch the fucking virus.

    It’s all very depressing.

    A lot of the restrictions dont make any sense.

    It seems that Dan & Co have eased restrictions for those of us in rural Vic. We can even have a party.

    “Can I have a birthday party in my home?
    Yes. You can have a birthday party in your home with up to two visitors attending separately and at different times (and their dependants).”

    Wow. I can have two visitors to a party, provided they come at different times. WTF?????? And we’re in the country with a zero rolling average. Perhaps someone might hand Dan a dictionary so he can look up what a party is.

    I’d bet that a meeting of the Labor Party would go ahead.

    CG, it’s now ten ‘double donut’ days, as if that matters.

    It’s good to see that some restrictions have eased. I can now have two friends visit AT THE SAME TIME.
    It’s been months since there have been any covid cases out here in the sticks, the State of Disaster has run out and yet we are still not allowed reasonable behaviour.

    I agree that we will have to pull our heads in at the first instance of a live case within cooee, but until then we should be allowed to get on with our dwindling lives.

    An advancement for golf from today.
    Cup liners no longer inverted and flags back to normal. Recommended that a gloved hand or towel be used to handle flagsticks. Still no rakes.

    There is absolutely no doubt that statistics show that having cup liners helped reduce the spread of Covid to golfers.
    It really was scary, how many golfers caught Covid from being on golf course and touching the flag stick and the rakes.

    Q speaking of rakes,
    do we need to have rakes in bunkers, the bunkers are after all classed as penalty areas and hazards to be avoided, and some say you play from the lie you get.
    you see golfers scull them over green or leave in bunkers just as many times from un raked bunkers as you do from lovely raked bunkers..

    Interesting…. I can’t recall seeing anything about golfers in NSW or anywhere else for that matter getting Covid from doing anything golf related. I think there may have been a couple that got it from the Clubhouse. Can you direct me to the area that has the stats for this. Would be interesting to do a comparative analysis against other open air sports that were being played but not in a confined bubble.
