Tuesday 25th of November was golf day, invited by Ray Fimore owner of Red Knights Garden for golf, he had invited me many times before so, on behalf of mum i was pleased to accept and we met at 9am for beans on toast breakfast (very nice) before departing, Ray lent Mum some clubs.
The three of us went together Ray showed me some short cuts which were handy for the future and to the course Palais Verde, which was / is a sculptured golf course wrapped around a high and expensive but mainly empty sub-division. The club house was very formal and BIG
The start was all, club drop off's, choosing caddy, registering for match card (passport!!) and faffing around with locker keys and towels.
The couse was difficult sculptured and opulent and out of step with a poor local population.
Ray was a good host, Mum had a fun Caddy, Bianka and the game progressed, rest stops at hole 7 and 14 i think and about 4 hours to go round, i walked and chatted, mainly to Ray but Mum of course as well, who half walked and half went in the buggy which Bianka drove
And that was it, weather was cool which allowed Mum to finish, it was tiring, even for me who walked. Back to Red knights garden, welcome beer and curry,.... golf over....
