At Letham today a jolly chap called Ian was manning the shop, collecting fees, directing visitors, answering calls AND running backward and forward to serve at the bar. H...
I once bought a bag of clubs from a charity shop for £20 and the bag contained a set of mid-size irons, 4 Adams “woods”, assorted drivers and an Odyssey putter. That was...

If you are playing Lansdowne and you find a dark grey, round necked sweater with a “St.Andrews Scotland” badge then it is mine. I think it fell off my trolley in the tree...
