It
still hurts A
couple of women were playing golf one sunny Saturday morning. The first of
the twosome teed off and watched in horror as her ball headed directly
toward a foursome of men playing the next hole. Indeed,
the ball hit one of the men, and he immediately clasped his hands together
at his crotch, fell to the ground and proceeded to roll around in evident
agony. The
woman rushed down to the man and immediately began to apologize. She
explained that she was a physical therapist: Please allow me to help. I'm
a physical therapist and I know I could relieve your pain if you'd allow
me she told him earnestly. Ummph,
oooh, nnooo, I'll be alright...I'll be fine in a few minutes, he replied
breathlessly as he remained in the fetal position still clasping his hands
together at his crotch. But
she persisted, and he finally allowed her to help him. She gently took his
hands away and laid them to the side, she loosened his pants, and she put
her hands inside. She began to massage him. She then asked him: How does
that feel? To which he replied: It feels great, but my thumb still hurts
like hell. £50
for a ticket ? Tickets
for the British Open are hard to get and the touts have a field day. One
keen spectator was offered a ticket for £50. "That's absurd,"
the enthusiast declared. "Why, I could get a woman for that!" "True
sir, but with this ticket you get eighteen holes!" Two
wishes Paddy
was playing golf at a very exclusive club in County Kerry for the first
time, and on the sixth hole he hit a hole in one. Jubilant, he walked down
to the green and, just as he was taking his ball from the cup, up popped a
leprechaun. "Sor,"
the leprechaun bowed politely and continued. "This is a very
exclusive course which has everything, including the services of a
leprechaun if you make a hole in one in the sixth hole. I will be
delighted to grant you any wish your heart desires." "Saints
preserve us," said Paddy in shock. But seeing the leprechaun waiting
so patiently he thought for a minute then admitted shyly that he did have
a wish. "I
want to have a longer penis," he confided. "Your wish is
granted, Sor," the leprechaun said and disappeared in a puff of green
smoke down the hole. So
Paddy headed back to join up with his friends and as he walked he could
feel his penis slowly growing. The golf game progressed and Paddy's penis
kept getting longer and longer until it came out beneath his shorts and
reached down below his knees. "Hmmmm,"
Paddy thought, "maybe this wasn't such a great idea after all."
So he left his friends and went back to the sixth hole with a bucket of
balls and began to shoot. Finally he hit a hole in one, and by the time he
got down to the green, he had to hold his penis to keep it from dragging
on the ground. But he managed to take the ball from the cup and sure
enough, out popped the leprechaun. "Sor,
this is a very exclusive course," said the leprechaun bowing once
again, "and it has everything including the services of a leprechaun
. . . oh it's you again. Well
what will it be this time?" "Could
you make my legs longer?" pleaded Paddy. Heaven
& Earth "I'd
move heaven and earth to be able to break 100 on this course," sighed
Mac, the golfer. "Try
heaven," advised the caddie. "You've already moved most of the
earth." |

ON THE 19TH OF JANUARY, 4 OF THE FAIRWAYS GOLF SOCIETY
MEMBERS HAD THE CHANCE TO PLAY THE WORLD FAMOUS BELFRY THE HOME TO LAST
YEARS CANCELLED RYDER CUP. WE CAUGHT UP WITH ONE OF THEM
(GRAHAM MEAD) TO GET HIS THOUGHTS ABOUT PLAYING WHAT IS CLASSED AS ONE OF THE
BEST COURSES IN ENGLAND. WEBPAGE:
What made you decided to play
the Belfry? GRAHAM
MEAD: The
opportunity presented itself when myself and Dave
acquired
a voucher for a free green fee and 3 at half price, we decided to invite
one person each and split the cost between the four of us. WP:
Which of the courses did you
play and how much did it cost? GM:
We played the PGA National
which with the voucher worked out at £15 each WP:
I here you played the Belfry's
3rd course the Derby also? GM:
Yes that cost us £20 each, we played the Derby on the second day WP:
I take it you stayed the night
then, how much did that cost? GM:
We stayed at the Devere hotel
and that set us back £107.95 each for bed and breakfast. WP:
Wow, I
hope it lived up to your expectations? GM:
I expected the course to be
better then any course I had played and I was not disappointed. WP:
Tell us a bit about the course GM:
The midlands had been deluged
for a few days by constant rain so it was a total surprise when we were
allowed trolleys on the course. The
greens although soft were still quite firm and quite flat there was hardly
a straight putt to be had. The fairways were lush and the ball only
plugged in the rough. After the first couple of holes I can only describe
the tee shot as if I were a giant looking along a valley with the
Himalayas stretching along either side of the valley forwards the green,
below each mountain was a bunker the fairways were very narrow and I found
more than my fair share of sand. WP:
How did you play? GM:
I can only really say we did
not do the course justice. Scott hit his driver on every hole that
wasn’t a par 3 and hit the fairways more often than not, he pulled very
well but couldn’t hit any of his irons. I putted and chipped well but
nothing else, lee was hitting some very good approach shots and Dave was
there, only kidding no one of us played well. I think Dave scored 28
points, Lee 27 myself 26 and Scott amassed a miserable 23 points or so.
Lee was the only one to play any sort of form on Sunday shooting 37 points
whilst the wind and heavy rain got the better of the rest of us. All in
all it was an experience we were pleased to take part in. WP:
Any plans to go back? GM:
Actually yes, we are just about
to go and play the Belfry's premier course "The
Brabazon", a little bit more costly this time at around £120 but I
am surprised
they are letting us on at the weekend and am really looking forward to it. WP:
Well we hope you enjoy it,
thank you for your time. |
