Golf Tip |
In an early match, when
very much a novice, I went in the trees on 1st
and panicked. Dom came by and said “There is no one else
– just you and the ball”. I pulled myself together and
won the match. Thanks Dom. |

Moment |
Many - Wedding Day -
birth of the children- a 4 yr. old grandson whom I had
not seen for 2 years asking me to sing him “that song
you used to sing” – what a memory!
But a humbling experience
on a day in a tribal longhouse in Borneo takes some
beating. 26 families living together with contented
children playing with sticks and stones. No toys, no
amenities and never a cry all day. We could learn a lot
from them. |
