Yes just off the M4. It's 6 minutes from my driveway

to the clubhouse and 20 to the city centre. Rathgar is a very nice suburb for sure. 4 years is a decent time to spend in a place. Hope we treated you nice.
No comparison here for watering. There was probably the same rain fell here today as you've had all year. Enjoy the nice weather. Never like that here. But as I tell my kids it's great to be alive.
Stay safe. Cheers S

That’s the strap I normally wear in this weather (later that day it fired up to 43) but in all fairness I just couldn’t find the rubber strap that quickly haha
Thanks

Yep the photo was taken fronste garden which overlooks the 8th hole at Earth course Juneirah Golf Estates (where they play the annual Race to Dubai)
It’s a great course

The main difference with championship courses in Europe is the size of the bunkers. Once you’re used to the bunkers out here, most of them in Europe appear to be lot smaller. The photo says it all. Some say these are not bunkers but that entire hole is li...

We discovered golf only about 10 years ago. Started playing when is was 50 and year later my wife joined as well (she’s now more fanatic than I am). Every other 5 years or so I tried the game but either didn’t have the time or didn’t like it that much. Al...
It’d Great to be out again

And if you’re a golfer and happen to pass by dubai, let me know and we can play a round if you like
O wouldn’t that be great
By: Jurry : May 22nd, 2020-06:03
Play a round of golf, talk watches. You bring that fantastic Patek, I’ll bring one of my VC’s. Looking forward although it may be a while before I get in the neighborhood
That’s what I like so much in golf

It’s a very sociable sport. Basically because you play against yourself and with another player. The handicap system (with its limitations I agree) evens things out. The other element is the social networking. Pre-COVID era the club organized some form of...
Wow, that sounds amazing but during 40 - 47° is CRAZY 😂🤣...

and I agree, the social networking as well as friendship made on the golf course are priceless 👏 I remember a golf trip a few friends and I took to Palm Springs in California. We played all the Championship courses we could for a week. So, like you, we pl...
One thing is for sure

After re-reading our conversation on golf, I can only arrive at one simple conclusion: you and I must play a round together regardless on which continent that may be.
Real trees

Beautiful picture of your golf course. I live at Jumeirah Golf Estates where they have 2 championship courses Earth and Fire. They reopened for members only 2 weeks back and have been playing most of these 14 days. Whenever you’re in Dubai let me know in ...
Just to a peak
By: Jurry : May 22nd, 2020-06:32
Just took a quick peak at Royal Mougins: what a stunning course. No wonder it’s listed in the top 7. Really looks great. You mentioned the US: I’ve never played golf in Florida but I’ve played at Dove Mountain in Arizona. Absolute stunning course and mana...
Hi thanks

Thanks for your kind invitation. Carton House isn’t that just outside Dublin on the M4? And if so, if it’s not too impolite or inappropriate to ask, I would guess you might very well live in Dublin? Reason I’m asking is that we have lived an odd 4 years i...

Great people great country
By: Jurry : May 22nd, 2020-13:39
We truly enjoyed our time there. Made long term friends and even though it’s approx 25 years ago since we lived there, there are million memories fresh alive. I’ll never forget how the husband of my secretary and his father invited me for a day fishing in...
We could.....
By: Jurry : May 23rd, 2020-02:34
organize a golf “merry go round” playing 4 times per annum, start in Florida, 3 months later Ireland, another 3 months later Core D’Azur en finish in Dubai. Or 3 x per annum and skip Florida Willing to bet that if we set it up, a bunch other guys will par...
True

COVID indeed is a bit of a stand in the way factor. But it won’t last forever and the sooner it’s over the better. Obviously it would require some planning but for now it’s great to just even dream away with the idea.
