Every year I go on a golf tour with a bunch of around twenty four inebriates, to Spain or somewhere similar for four days of golf and laughs.
Next Aprils tour is now being arranged and there is some discussion about luggage! These things happen when a committee attempts to make a decision for others. The problem is whether people wish to take hand luggage, hold luggage and/or golf clubs at all, what to take and so on….
I could not help but send my input here from Thailand for consideration……..
Hi Greg,
I’ve been noticing all the discussions on the luggage and what should be taken and I thought I should chip in.
As you may know I am in Thailand at the moment and the new wife wants to come along on next years tour.
It was all a bit of a whirlwind romance really. I was wandering through the night market looking for a stall selling chocolate covered bananas when I saw Hoo Flung Dat. She only cost me £18.00 as the exchange rate is brilliant at the moment. Melytce is the nickname I’ve given her. It’s Thai for Me Love You Till Card Expire. She was a bargain especially as she comes with a ready made family group.
I get 2 grandfathers, 1 grandmother, two babies, one sister and a dog (the other Grandmother).
Meltyce will probably come along as my caddy if that’s ok with the committee. She is only 4′ 8″ so she will get in with the clubs.
I was hoping that some of the lads would volunteer to each pack a family member. McGee always has plenty of room in his bag so could take one grandad – and possibly the other if he leaves out a couple of pairs of his oversized jockeys. Obviously Ben Rumary is going to have plenty of room if he’s going to buy a cargo hold of space as he plans. Anyway I am sure it can be worked out.
If somebody wants to pack the grandmother, Hoo Flung Dis, she could come along as their personal caddy. She also is smallish and could fit in a bag too. She would be great at cleaning the clubs. She’s polished a lot of club heads over the years if her looks are anything to go by.
I am not sure who I am sharing a room with but the whole lot will be able to fit in our bathroom for the few days we’re away. They’ll think it’s a luxury holiday as the bathroom will be a bit bigger than their existing semi in Thailand. Plus, my roommate will be able to get a foot massage as he does no two’s.
I can’t wait to introduce her and my new family to you Greg, and the golf tour is the perfect opportunity as they can show off their fantastic skills with small white balls.
