Free Golf

My brother has donated some vouchers to play golf at Hampton Court Palace to the cause. He's a member and plays about twice a year as he's got saucepans (translation: saucepan lid = kid). I've been playing there for years - well before it was rebranded as Hampton Court Palace.

Used to be called Home Park, and was basically the course for London Cabbies. All tarted up now, but still a lovely course. Inland links for the main part, which is a totally alien concept until you go and actually play there. It's weird thinking links golf and looking up to see Hamtpon Court Palace in the background.

Now my game is almost intact, I'm looking forward to having a proper go there. The rough is terrible in the summer, but should have quietened down by now. Another weird feature is the bird life - there's a whole colony of Parakeets living there.

Right, back to it.
