MM Links March 2012 Week 5

When I offered to do the links this month, I was away in Gran Canaria and didn’t have a diary with me; I hadn’t realized until well into the second week that I would have to produce 5 ‘essays’. I can ramble on about things I know for ever but try to make something up is not that easy for me. One of my granddaughters has the same problem and struggles with writing essays on subjects about which she knows little.

So what can I talk about this time? I’ve bored you with Gran Canaria, my garden and golf and in my previous time as a setter told you my life story, so what now?

Last week I was in Leicestershire for a couple of days for a 'golf rules' seminar. I stayed at my brother’s place in the middle of nowhere and was delighted to see so much wildlife at first light. I’ll leave you to guess what I saw!

We had our annual coffee morning at the golf club last week, when we try to raise some money for the County Captain’s Charity (Parkinson’s) and my Captain’s charity (Rainbow Trust Children's Charity). I baked a cake as a prize for people to guess the weight . To make it simpler to make a list of weights I did it in grams – that caused chaos as hardly anyone worked in grams and they were desperately trying to convert their pounds and ounces to grams. Never mind it was all a great success.
