Getting old

Man, I'm sore today after both playing tennis and golf this weekend. Even though we didn't play tennis for more than 25 minutes; we all were totally exhausted. One reason could be that the temperature was slightly over 39C and humidity close to 100%; another reason could be that we drank two beers just before playing. I think it was the weather........

On Sunday we went to the driving range to hit some golf balls. I'm quite happy with the way I spread the balls all over the place but most of the were OK. The funny thing was that we had too use one kind of balls for the driver and one for the iron clubs. The balls we used with the driver was inexpensive balls in case we sliced or hooked them out of bounds. I used one expensive ball together with the driver by mistake and got the evil eye from the supervisor. On top of that I pegged the ball in the wrong kind of surface and then he got really pissed off. How I'm a supposed to now that there's different surface to be used with the driver? I was about too tell him "In Sweden we have the same surface.." but stopped my self before it came out of my mouth cause he will probably not understand anything at all; been there, done that so too say.

The best of all was their solution for how to collect the balls back again. Two teenage boys were walking on the range picking the balls manually in to a PVC-pipe. The only protection they had from the speeding golf balls was an old red umbrella that merely covered the back and head. If they were to closed we stopped shooting for a while but the Korean gentleman next too us just kept on shooting. Only in India my friends.

Over and Out!
