OH has waited until today to achieve a 'hole in one'. On a day like today the golf course and club house will be full to bursting! It will cost a fortune - when he rang I said buy them a cuppa!

Perhaps someone will buy HIM a drink to celebrate too.

Congratulations to him.

Is he home yet Chris? Or did everyone do as Gwyn suggested and buy him a drink?

Are you keeping your fingers crossed that he doesn't do it again next week?


Congratulations to your Oh :-D :-D :-D

He is so pleased with himself and could not wait to tell our gson - mind you it was the second hole and said the other sixteen he played tripe! Was in shock!!

Thank you Elizabeth, trouble is that even very expensive champagne gives me a headache after one glass so never feel it is worth the effort! However gson likes it sure he will help Gramps. :-)

oooer Chris!

OH got his first hole in one a few months ago.

Our golf club doesn't expect the player to pay for drinks. Members of the golf club who get a hole in one are given a bottle of whisky, and it's put on the bar with a tray of glasses.

He's got his name on the HIO board, and a trophy with the "magic" ball.

He won the "cock of the walk" last week, so he's pretty chuffed <3
