Lockdown Day 44
I really had to think hard for a moment to work out what Day it is, then sat back and thought..does it matter any more ?
Lots more input coming in, a couple were a little to 'Tasty' for the Blog but we appreciate your efforts as usual.
Frankie is getting frustrated as he has only one entry for his 'Count the Birdies' challenge and that was from Bob Geese. Check the blog from a couple of days ago and please send him something directly...

Now it's in the paper we can go official on Owners plans for the Club - nothing new but now specifies 'Clean inert Topsoil', a modest 65K Cub Metres or 100,000 Tons - but vastly changing 8,9,10 and getting a very welcome Pond.
Access is via lane off A30 just before Club, by 6th hole.

So what have we got today...a lesser spotted Hunt has been seen...
...effects of the lockdown...he thought he was on the other side..!!
First two show the difference between Man and his Dog.
See how the Dog watches carefully, processes the info and reacts correctly...
Now Watch how Men are equally diligent in their observations, but their reactions leave something to be desired...with disastrous consequences.
The Third one features a young Nicola Sturgeon...
Now to relax you a little, the pace we should be working at.
The second thing he will do is hit a provisional!
John, the cartoon you posted on the blog by BoB is a Chard boy, now a famous cartoonist. Grandson of our next door neighbour Janet Rymell who died in 2019.
Frank Martin has one of his originals, a cartoon of Donald Trump trying to dig himself out of a bunker. Frank won it in a blind auction to raise money for the Captain’s charity in 2017.
Obviously someone with a keen eye!
Cheers

I'm afraid Donald is featured again, this time secret film of when he was allowed to attend Play School to improve his communication skills ..having a bit of a 'TanTrump' - a new word I have just invented, good eh ?

This short clip shows the danger of diving in a face mask as you can't see the tiny rock protruding above the water line, get nice and close to the screen and concentrate as it happens very quickly....
If you are ready, press the Play Button.
There was some early optimism about this Friday being our last day, with a restart for Monday 11th, but smart money has moved to May 18th but we won't know until Boris makes the big speech on Sunday.
So what have we got for you today, bit of a mixed bad, so lets just add bit by bit.
Quick warning about not getting too clever with the Ladies....
Funny how Toilet Roll jokes are now a forgotten thing of the past. People say that the effects of this Pandemic will last for Years, but we are so good these day in just getting on with life.
Just weeks ago we were glued to the Screen with Aussie Bush Fires, then about 3 Years of Brexit - are they out yet / - are we out yet ?
Don't you just miss the Days when Cowboy Ronnie was in Charge...
Update from our Capitano...
A quick one from Dame Edna, with Social Distancing, we all have to be prepared to be told where to sit...
Hopefully, to you nice people out there this will look like a perfectly normal picture, but it has a shady side to it...
Combo Name the Frame and Celebrity Post,,, who is this dapper young Man ?
In the 80’s I sponsoreda Prosecco receptiononi at Westland
to raise Liras for the UK team for the Los Angeles Olympic Gamesa at that time Princess Royal was the Patron and I hada the privilegissimo to be presented to Her
We got sent a couple of links, which I'm always nervous to post .
First was the Captain with the full Covid-19 Road Map in 5 Phases and the 2nd was the Golf Club Plans for improving the 8,9,10 holes.
We do not wish to get involved directly here as there are divided opinions, but you can find them all with a modest search.
Mike asks , What is the connection between this and Chickens ?
Answer tomorrow...
The following is genuine advice from one of our members.
Home testing kits for (Covid - 19) virus.
I thought home testing kits were only for NHS, and frontline staff, so I double checked with them, as me and the wife have isolated for 2 weeks, as we developed a very niggly cough and a feeling of unwell.
I was told to try ordering a home kit and it worked, kit arrived yesterday by courier, and collected today at 0830, and should have the results Friday or Saturday.
So, if any Senior is unsure, go online and order.
take care …..
I'll put you in contact with him if you require.
Hopefully we will get away with this one, once more it's all in your imagination, although you do not have to try too hard with this poser !
..he's lost his marbles...
This was our era, amazing how people are able to think
Today's showpiece finale is very cleverly organised and shows a lot of extremely talented youngsters..this would be a great venue for a Pop-Concert, with the sound echoing around all those empty shelves....like the Sydney Opera House.
..enjoy today's sunshine, get those legs tanned & ready.....nearly there.

This was our era, amazing how people are able to think
of these adaptations. Wish I was as
gifted! Px.
Just nice to listen to and well crafted.
