Goodbye...

trusted friend. Today, although a great day was also a very sad day. The positives first - I played 36 holes of golf on a wonderful inland links course in leafy Hertfordshire with three other school buddies. We've been mates since we were about 6 days old so it was a lot of fun. I played well, another positive, and the weather was fantastic. Now onto the negatives - the weather has been so good that I'm burnt to a crisp so sitting at Wimbledon tomorrow is going to be fun. The biggest negative however is my dear dear trusted friend - my 7 iron - broke in two this morning. I'm devastated as it's been very good to me - almost my comfort blanket and now it's in pieces. It wasn't broken in anger it simply passed away, quietly, in my hands as I walked to the tee - it was a touching moment that my so called mates found hysterically funny. I miss my 7 iron.
