Charlie, I will buy two rounds also. One for PYR and the other for WML. We need at least some mention of other than KOB. Bob

Hi Charlie, It seems like no-one wants to talk about important subjects like drilling, share options etc., so we'd better discuss golf. How are you getting on with planning the "GREATER ELH OPEN"? My clubs are all packed and ready to go on the big bird. I fooled the airline - they would only allow me a half set so Mrs Fannakapan has become a golfer overnight and now she has a half set as well! I've just been getting in some bunker practice at St. Andrews -It's a truly amazing place, one cavernous hole in the ground is called "Hell Bunker" and they have a ladder down into it. You can be down there for quite a while. Just to give you a flavour of the place, here is an extract from the guidebook, with instructions on how to play one of the holes, 505 yards long: <<We are now into the more open section of the course, positively inviting the opening of one's shoulders in order to achieve great feats of distance off the tee. Played as a par five with a favourable wind the hole presents no great problems. Two temperate shots holding to the left of the fairway then a careful shortish iron to a flattish green. But it's a cold blooded rogue who plays that kind of golf. The hole is designed to tempt then punish the ambitious. The player going for a birdie will hold to the left to avoid the bunker and gorse on the right. His try for the green however is now confronted by 3 nasty bunkers of grade 2 difficulty, set in equally nasty aquisitive pits which mask all the left hand side of the green; doubtless more often than not containing the pin! A careful examination of the afore-mentioned bunkers shows that it would be very possible, with a little bad luck, to progress from the first to the third by way of the second! The best advice is to play long.>> I hope you appreciate Scottish humour! I didn't find any of those 3 bunkers but I'm not yet ready to confess how many others I found. I have sent you a private message with a couple of numbers to contact me when I've crossed the pond. Have a great day and let's hope that drill's still turning. Fred
