The totally off-topic thread

If that was the sole content of the post this bizarre attack might have some relevance. Again if you don't understand something I question attacking someone over it instead of seeking clarification.

Cest la vie, its all in the perspective.

Yep and from my perspective it is very poor form to have a go at someone over something that you've stated you do not understand. I also fail to see why you're defending such poor form.

We could only manage par off the stick at Eagle Ridge Ambrose (H'cap of 10) - missed by 2⅛ Nett.

But, indeed a lovely day ...

I shot 108, so it could have been quite a bit better

Any day on a golf course is a lovely day.

About to head off to work and there is no way I can a description anywhere near lovely.

Oh well only 14 more work days for the year....

Well I think 108 is a good score!
This comes from a fellow whose only trophy playing golf was winning the Don bradman award at a hospital golf day.
Still thinl it is a good day if spent at a golf course.

99 not out of the rough?

I know I can do better, but I just don't play enough to be consistent.

I once scored 108, and was very happy with that score. But I was not able to keep it up for the back nine.

How do you play golf in a hospital:?:

Does anyone else plan more travel when they are depressed?

I do when work pisses me off....I have 7 OS trips booked in the next 12 months!

You're a doctor - can you diagnose me as severely depressed? Maybe I can put some First Class travel and claim it as necessary medication / health insurance....

I can also accommodate severely pissed off / anger management issues....

At least you can afford it.

I know what the chief of finance is going to say. At least the deputy chief knows not to say anything...

I tend to book lots of travel regardless of mood, although I do swing between wanting to fly every weekend and wanting to stay home and sleep.

I know a lot of people, but since 2008 I have not been particularly close to anyone. As such I don't feel "locked in" to be at home for any length of time, or on specific days of the week, etc.

~70% of my BIS miles are still for work, but I definitely enjoy the random personal trips (as well as attending dos)... Now, if only I had more money to fly more

I tend to book travel to ward off depression!

 

[Simo]

I get depressed when I am locked down and can not travel.

There is no travel planned for the next 12 months for me.

Maybe a few quick trips OS but nothing more than a long weekend but it a long story why my travel is cut.

 

[rogerkambah]

I used to get a quick bout of depression when I saw how much I'd spent on travel. Now I've put my ccs on autopay I don't get depressed nearly as much.

Hospital golf, this could be a new sport...

Some of the long hallways would be good for putting practice!

And if you get the wrong sort of hole in one, you don't have far to go for treatment.

The 19th hole is a bit underwhelming, though!

I get forlorn when I don't have travel contemplated or booked, or know I'm going to be on the ground for a while. Seems we need to catch up to hear your story.

 

[Pushka]

I always like to have the next trip at least thought about and well into planning (if not actually booked) well before the end of a current trip. I have a couple organised at the moment, just need to share the good news with my husband. Actually, the second one was his idea. Thinking - Dubai; Venice; then 7 night Eastern med cruise (Croatian coast), Istanbul, Santorini then back home. Trying out the mighty Emirates (coz Qantas flights cost thousands more). And. ahem, I am doing a solo 23 day cruise on QM2 in March to Shanghai - will barely have time to unpack, wash and repack. Such is life.

So my 77 (12 over par) at Chatswood is not a disaster?

I guess it is all relative though. I am not playing badly. Just leeking too many shots. Wish there was a quick fix.
