Golfing Etiquette

There was this Scots golfer Sir Percy Hoar

    Who dinged a poor bloke nigh hole number four

        This made the dude mighty sore

            And after Percy he tore

                Forsooth, Sir Percy failed to bellow FORE

G’day Bob … golf is a weird sport. The less you do, the better you’re playing - thanks Bob - Lindsay

Thank you Llndsay. In my case the more I played the worse I got. My wife won a set of golf clubs and I was kinda "forced" into playing. Good on you, Mate. Bob

This is really funny, Bob! Guess the golf course can be a dangerous place. (Actually, my sister has seen both gators and crocodiles on golf courses in South Florida -- I would be afraid.) Enjoyed, my friend! Love, Carolyn

Thank you, Carolyn - glad it gave you a laff. Here in Colorado it is bears and elk that are seen on golf courses! Thanks so much for your continued support and encouragement - Hugs - Bob

Sir Percy was certainly blessed with a fine last name there. ~ Jealous, but not Envious. lol. Limericks and Luminescence, Gershon

Thank you, Gershon - I wanted to make his first name Percival but that would've over-syallabalized (new name) the lim then you would have reason to be envious - ha! Enjoy the forthcoming Rosh Hoshana season with your family. Bob
