Jo likes to buy Groupon Deals and then round up people to take the offer up with her. In this case it was a round of golf at the Southwood Golf club. Groupon deals often sound good in theory and relatively cheap but activity type deals (like golf, zorbing, falconry etc.) are quite often in obscure locations that are not within reasonable walking distance of public transport or require a significant train journey. The Southwood Golf club offer was one of those deals but luckily Jo had arranged to borrow a car to make the journey a little easier on us.

I was quite excited to be out on the golf course. Its been way too long since I’ve been on the driving range – one of the best ways to work out any excess aggression. Heh heh.

When we arrived at the club I was expecting there to be many other people taking advantage of the groupon deal, meaning a lot of other amateur golfers like us! But there weren’t – we must have waved through at least six groups after us. Heh heh.

We started out the first hole with the intention of scoring … but it was pretty clear after everyone’s 6th or 7th shot just to get to the green that the score card was fairly redundant. Heh heh. Still, that didn’t stop each one of us having at least two spectacular and quite miraculous shots throughout the day.

We won’t mention the fact it took us nearly five hours to finish the 18 holes … 😉 A great day but many my butt is sore from all that walking! Who said that golf wasn’t proper exercise??!!
