does anyone else have sore nipples?

That was a comment I made on the 35th hole of golf on Saturday afternoon after feeling

some chafing on my manly chest circles. No one else did which I thought was odd but put

it down to them lying about this common problem also known as golfers' tit.

The weekend that is, was and always shall be known as the Tarnish Cup has finished and

it was a roaring success. I think all involved were pleased except the last place finisher who

looked like he was going to cry when presented with the Lady golfer trophy; a pretty sad

sight for a 55 year old man.

I played moderately, finishing in the middle of the pack which is fine by me. I played some holes

very well, and was especially pleased with the lack of a hangover on Sunday morning which

was all down to me scarpering off around 10.30 for an early night. Unheard of behaviour in

previous years but quite necessary this time around, especially with a 5.30 alarm call

beckoning.

Heres a photo of the Tarnsters of 2010 :

As you can (sort of) see, the Adirondacks around the Lake Placid area look fantastic.

You can also see me doing a stupid pose, I know not why.

I was in awe of the mountain scenery all day long and the scenes on some of the holes were

as good as anything I can recall having played.

Due to the large amount of golf we played, my late arrival on friday night and the scheduling

of the weekend I didnt really get to see much of the town of Lake Placid itself at all. We are

all going to be returning in March for some skiing with the brother and his family so Im sure

we'll get a lot more time to check it out then.
