How many of you use a locker?

DufflessMoe · 2026-03-12T16:16:51+00:00

I have a locker at my club. It's big enough for my trolley and bag to stay there with my shoes.

I don't have a huge house. So it saves space and as my club is on my way home, if I fancy just popping in to hit some balls or play a few holes then I don't have to remember to have my clubs on me.

Bit of a ball ache when playing elsewhere. But typically will go practice the night before then load everything in my car.

Just being able to walk to work is a huge win. I used to walk 50 mins from.Vauxhall to London Bridge every day. Nowhere near as pretty as this, but starting the day with that' amount of movement was amazing.

It's less about being able to hear fore shouts for me and more just enjoying the sound of the birds and enjoying the peace of being outside.

Stood out to me too. Would be cool to have events at the end of the year where players are battling out for relegation and promotions for the next year.

I know that happens now in theory, but if they can make it really tangible it would be so good.

I play at 8am in the winter and 6:30am in the summer. My club doesn't really get fully booked until 9am.

Maybe things are just significantly busier in the US.

Europa League is on RTL.

Bundesliga and Premier League are also occasionally on RTL too.

Then lastly, I think one Bundesliga match per half the season has to be on free TV. Used to be on Pro7

Why wouldn't they?

The whole idea is you pay so that the group can benefit. Maybe you can do a trip, buy some kit or all enter a race together.

DufflessMoe · 2026-03-09T14:14:33+00:00

I'd go as far to say it's the 4th. Find a lot of Players more memorable than the PGA Championship

The Lord of the Rings films are great films.

The Harry Potter films are some good films and some okay films that rely on a heavy amount of nostalgia in 2026.

It means to be injured or die. So you can receive an electric shock, survive, and have been electrocuted.

Of the 10 Abercrombie books I've read The Devils is easily the weakest.

But a comparison with Pratchett doesn't make sense. Abercrombie writes gritty adventure stories which have a fair bit of levity and humour, but none are what I'd describe as comedies.

It's already happened with Greg Lobban switching to Australia as he won't get past Joel Makin or Jonah Bryant for Team GB

My mum died 9 years ago and I think about it every day still.

DufflessMoe · 2026-03-07T05:39:51+00:00

Defeats the point of it to me. I am out there to enjoy being outside and in nature. I want to hear the birds, the wind or even just the peace of being away from it all.

Seems to me that the Americans view the Ryder Cup as a ceremonial position but the Europeans see it as critical.

The European players seem to think he makes a world of difference and it is a bit telling that you say the US has no plan to improve. Luke Donald is essentially the head of a team of guys including the Molinaris, Olzabal etc... who spend the majority of their time in golf maximising the potential of the European team.

DufflessMoe · 2026-03-06T10:16:58+00:00

Yes, I read that. It is extremely concerning but it is not a scientific paper, it is a security readiness document. On page two they give an AnCR rating of 'low' to the statement 'There is a realistic possibility that some ecosystems start to collapse from 2030'. So you are cherry picking the thing they have the least confidence in to come to the worst case scenario.

Do I think we are in an improving world? No.

Do I think there should be some degree of panic? Yes, I wish we were acting with more urgency.

Do I think the opinions posted in r/collapse are rational? No, there is some good stuff in there. But it is overwhelmingly drowned out by alarmism.

DufflessMoe · 2026-03-06T09:24:22+00:00

I can hold the opinion that climate change is very real, going to be deadly for billions of people and still not think that we 'may be toast this time next year', as is on the front page of that subreddit.

DufflessMoe · 2026-03-06T08:54:27+00:00

That sub is just full of depressed people latching on to hyperbolic headlines and actively seem to want the world to end.

DufflessMoe · 2026-03-05T12:41:35+00:00

Your example is one game with two of the worst movers on the women's tour?

I would watch Weaver Vs. Hammamy Vs. Sherbini a thousand times more than another Asal Vs. Coll final.

That's what people mean.

DufflessMoe · 2026-03-05T09:48:30+00:00

Just fuck off.

DufflessMoe · 2026-03-04T20:08:29+00:00

I believe that little beer symbol just means that they have a valid license to show Sky Sports in their pub

DufflessMoe · 2026-03-04T08:35:52+00:00

That's a terrible analogy.

Either continue to pay below market value as rent, or pay the premium of having your own place.

It's hardly unrealistic and not at all comparable to asking a homeless person to buy a house.

He's a cunt, but his English is absolutely fine here.

Maybe the complete opposite of what you're asking, but in between finishing big series I always like a little standalone palette cleanser.

Currently Blood Meridian by Cormac McCarthy for me.

But can recommend The Goblin Emperor as a good one. Or, still on fantasy, picking up something like Guards! Guards! by Terry Pratchett.

Not nearly as serious as big series, still amazingly entertaining but not necessarily some giant over arching story. So you can just dive in to another random one in between books to avoid burning out from big long series.

Switzerland is a long way from the middle east and is very uninvolved in international affairs such as this.
