Re: Another Drive4show 'Anything goes' thread

First topic message reminder :

Of course there are shades of grey but ultimately nobody can be sent to jail for saying they would like to kiddy fiddle but won't as it's illegal and cannot include consent by definition.
They go to jail when they break the law by looking at images or worse acts. So what do you do, change the laws ? Having an open debate won't change the laws, it will still come down to the same thing.
So whether they are deemed evil by society or not is ultimately fairly irrelevant as far as I can see. The end game remains the same.

I offer a million pounds for anyone who can watch this without ending up in hysterics?

Maybe the funniest youtube video ever?


I could barely breath after watching it.

You just wasted 2 and a half minutes of my life. Thanks. And you haven't even got a million pounds to give me despite my having not even cracked a vague smile.

[super_realist]

I think Mac is losing his mind. That were crap.

[McLaren]

Talk about not having a sense of humor. If you dont laugh at cat video's why bother having the internet?

[super_realist]

You mean humour Mac. We don't have humor in this country.

This is far better: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pb2bp-kvS8s

Didn't one-time PGA Tour pro Tripp Isenhour get disciplined for doing that once??!!

[super_realist]

Should have been commended. One fewer seagull in the world and a bloody good shot that deserves recognition and praise.

RBS branch sale (English branches) to Santander collapses...yippee!! I'm an RBS customer living in England and I never wanted my finances to be run by a Spanish bank... Who the hell do the European Commission think they are?? Glad it's all gone jubblies up...perhaps it's also time to bring their IT back from the sub continent too

[dynamark]

JAS- I am pretty sure their IT is coming back by the size of the two monster buildings with huge basements going up at Santander HQ in Carlton park Narborough.Mate of mine has just retired from there and he was offered a post to their Spanish HQ which has its own course designed by Seve.
At the Narborough site they are rumoured to be taking back the health club lease for their own private staff use.

[hend085]

it has its own golf course yes but its a shocking place to work in terms of location.Te security for visitors is like a prison.... far more extreme than anything ive seen in canary whark for example

[dynamark]

Really may be a genuine security /terrorism issue.My chum didnt take it as he had one eye on early retirement.I met a few of the guys he worked with and it all seems pretty easy going - compared to us folk in the private sector.
As an aside part of the deal for their new office park was to give over some land for the adjoining 9 hole municipal course.Sweetener for the council in effect.No problem with it though other than I will need to find a new gym.

[incontinentia]

So, how's everyone's day? 606v2 was blocked in my workplace, posting this from my phone a pox on them!

[navyblueshorts]

My day's been generally pants. Caught a cold off my daughter and work's more than usually frustrating...

[mystiroakey]

The last two days have been shocking!

I wouldnt even know where to start.. I hope everyone else has been better!!

[barragan]

Been on holiday since Thursday. Up north for a bit - wildlife park Thursday, washout Friday, scramble Saturday (finished 1st gross with a 59, 2nd handicap) - back down on Sunday and down to dumfries with the office yesterday then holiday today with my folks went to chambers st museum and golfing tomorrow weather permitting... Not looking likely but shall return to work tomorrow afternoon refreshed after my first decent spell off work in about 4 months

[mystiroakey]

nice I actually had a break to holland and france- played some golf. didnt win- as soon as i got home the sh!!!! hit the fan

[incontinentia]

Sorry to hear that mysti, hope its nothin serious.

At least barragans havin a good time, gross 59!! Thats some shooting

[barragan]

Twas a scramble mind.. thought there'd be better out there especially as we got off to a slow start. 8 birdies on the inward half worked a treat though. Funny enough we were a little disappointed at the end of the round as we didn't hole anything longer than about 6 feet all day. Normally in scrambles you need to knock in a few longer ones to be in the mix.

[mystiroakey]

nah nothing serious..


anyway!

whats the bigger suprise.. John winning the bake off!!!!

or england v poland called off due to a rain delay!! when they have a roof !

[princedracula]

Don't worry, I'm not usually reading the Jakarta Globe with my afternoon coffee... Just picked this link from one of Ms. Tilghman's tweets:

http://www.thejakartaglobe.com/golf/golf-miss-indonesia-2012-to-play-in-ladies-open/550911

[kwinigolfer]

I think she shot a 79 - not too bad!

btw: Ms Tilghman's looking a little rough around the edges recently, as if a few extra drinkies are affecting her. Whaddya think??!! Probably missing sirNick. Or Tiger.

[princedracula]

She looks a bit different all right... Was Ms Tilghman ever married...?

[kwinigolfer]

Kelly married? No idea, either then or now. No mention of any feller, except for the old salacious dig on 606v2 perhaps.

[navyblueshorts]

Hmm. I may be missing some of the facts but are the Italian judiciary really as stupid as this makes them seem?

L'Aquila earthquake scientists 'guilty' of manslaughter

[mystiroakey]

[dynamark]

TV- Golfing mate and old friend of mine is on Channel 4's Come dine with me this week.
Be interesting to see how he comes across and what his cooking is like.I had no idea he could cook TBH.

[Roller_Coaster]

Unless he's the one they deliberately chose as the bad cook.

Did he win? No channel 4 execs on here to chase him down (I assume) and I don't think Paddy Power take bets...

[dynamark]

Didnt know he was on until yesterday.Doesnt play at my club(gone upmarket) now but his father does.Hes gonna get some stick for it regardless.Bit of a one for the ladies so Im sure that will come into the plot

[Diggers]

Im so over Come Dine With Me...Four In a Bed on the other hand, thats quality broadcasting.

[McLaren]

dyna

Is he the muscled one or the estate agent?

[dynamark]

You got it Mac.Rich.Used to do a bit of gym and liked the sunbed.Good footballer in his day
He worked with us probably his first proper job about 25 years ago.Had a few family problems over the years but sound bloke.Window and conservatory business has his son and daughter on the firm.Hoping to catch the episode when hes at the stove.

[dynamark]

Hes on on Friday and by the sound of the preview its gonna be well worth a watch.I'll say no more but not to be missed.

[Caito]

Mac, I'm late to the party here but well done on your fader / maverick sleuthing. I had no idea! Always thought Fader seemed like a good guy and your harassment of him unreasonable, I now get it.

Maverick was clearly bulls$*t although amusing at times!

[mystiroakey]

Again.. jeas..

We have lost many posters due to mac- dont massage his ego any more.. I would rather interesting posters rather than boring honest ones any day- Offcourse no reason why you cant be both!!

Been watching Homeland- Quality show.. addicted..

Havent watched much 4 in a bed- Come dine drives me made these days- Its the first thing my GF puts on when nothing is worth watching.

[navyblueshorts]

Oakey

We haven't lost loads of posters "due to mac". If they're gone it's because of their own egos.

[super_realist]

Agreed, if Mac made people leave I would have been the first out of the door.

[mystiroakey]

Ok lads.. You are entitled to your opinions. As is everyone, as is Mac an all.. I just say it how i see it.

[Caito]

Mysti I agree the site is poorer without the likes of LJ and even Maverick. i also agree that some of the reg posters can be off putting to any new posters.

however Mac did get the detail right here even if the outcome was a poorer forum.

Who was it that said Lowry didn't look like he was fat?

[mystiroakey]

Biting at the bit to post a lowry is fat topic hey SR..

Clearly a marketing ploy to get the average yank to buy cleaveland- Its all CGI- he is really only 11 stone.

[super_realist]

Didn't realise he was sponsored by Cleveland. Always liked their wedges. That's a brand though with a serious image problem. No decent names at all.

How is it a poorer forum if the guy who dissapears is a complete fantasist ? Seriously, what part of he made everything up do people not get. I could sit here today and write about what a nice round I had at Wentworth yesterday but if its not true...which sadly it isnt....then its all a bit pointless really. Its not a creative writing forum.
Im positive that Mac has prompted far more people to read and post on here than he has ever driven away, in fact the only person I know for a fact he drove away was Mercurio and I concur with Navys feelings regarding him.

[McLaren]

Mysti

Would you care to expand on what you meant by;

“We have lost many posters due to mac”

I would be interested to see if you can name one example of a poster leaving because of me. And mercurio does not count –as diggers also points out - as he acted in a pathetic manner after not getting his own way in general.

I have also said many times since his outing that Fader/mav should get his ass back on the site and take the ribbing he deserves. Nothing too cruel, just some gentle jibes. I don’t think anyone takes the forum so seriously that he couldn’t post here again?

I do however agree with diggers sentiments regarding making everything up, but if fader was closer to the truth then why not accept mav was a fantasy and just post as a more truthful version of fader. Certainly no need for him not to come back, just that trust issues will be faced.

FAVERICK – where are you*?





* If it is outside my house with a machete then I promise to grovel most suitably for forgiveness.

[mystiroakey]

Ok mac thanks for posting..

I could refer you to a few months back when all you did was follow me about insulting me for no reason at all. Now we both now how little you know and understand about golf- and all you did was attack and derail every thread you follwed me to.

I also noticed you did the same to fader- But by everyones rationale on here because you were right- your behaviour was justified.

Do you think i am some lieing sock an all?

[McLaren]

mysti

I made a few comments about how hyper you always seem, that hardly counts as following and insulting you. You do seem a very sensitive sole, would that be fair?

[mystiroakey]

Come on it was way more that that

[JAS]

Mac, so so many times you've drove me to the edge of giving up all forum posting forever!!

[super_realist]

mysti

I made a few comments about how hyper you always seem, that hardly counts as following and insulting you. You do seem a very sensitive sole, would that be fair?

You're calling him a fish now?

[mystiroakey]

Look you wound me up. I have the odd comprehension issue- its the way my brain works!!. I dont want anyone to feel sorry for me and I have no reason to take such offence. But you wound me up as does a moderator on another part of this forum. After reading insult after insult it gets to me- Yes I can be sensitive, but you knew i took offense and yet you kept on digging and digging. Maybe I should just start using a spell checker or something...

What I hate is reading all this love for you - when I personally know what an ass you can be sometimes.. But in all fairness I gotta respect that- Even SR backed you up!

Anyway thats enough for now- Hopefully we can grow this forum and get loads of different types of posters back on here- TBF this is the worst part of the golf calender, it does get abit boring anyway!

I said he didn't look as fat in real life as he does in photos or on TV.
