Celibrated my 70th Birthday on Sat the 26th August golfing at Gleneagles firstly 
playing the 9 hole PGA National Academy course in the morning and the 18 hole King's course 
in the afternoon, playing along with me were my son in law Greg his friend Nathan and my very 
good friend David McEwan aka DeeMac, we were blessed with good weather throughout the day
and a mixture of some good and some not so good golf,

but all in all an excellent days golf played with excellent company 

John

Thank you Paul,

It's a fantastic place and setting in which to play golf this was the second time I've played there the first time was 1975

Don't think my golf was as good this time around but I still enjoyed it none the less,

cheers John

Hi Lee,

yes I know sometimes I find it hard to believe my self that I'm that old...!

Netta has also just celebrated her 70th in this past week she is 8 days older than me so In reality im her toy boy ;) 

so its important that I keep fit so I can live up to her expectations :D 

and all going well I'll look forward to having that beer with you at the 2018 forum day, 

Cheers John

Hi David,

Yes it sure was and the weather couldn't have been better it was gloriously sunny all through the day,

I was especially delighted that DeeMac could join us in celebrating my 70th considering the fact he had not 
Played since the forum day in May he played some excellent golf,

Cheers John :D

All the best

Hi Halebopp,

Thank you its much appreciated It was a fantastic day I really did have the best time,

But it was also one of the most nerve racking first tee shots I have ever had to play..!

The first tee on the King's course is over looked by the Dormy club house that has a large veranda 
where there are usually a good number of other golfers watching as you tee off, I was so nervous
the palms of my hands were sweating and my knees were shaking but thankfully I hit a great tee shot
that split the fairway so to say I was relieved would be an under statement..!

Cheers John :D
