Thanks Pilar for finding and putting the link on this thread and although as you say Kathy it is pretty quiet but it is great to see Michael....that is the beauty of a laptop for I can lift it up to my ear and actually, just about, hear him !! :)
I will now put in this little picture I found a while ago but believed it had been "doctored" that I didn't want to show it but it is obvious to me now that it was taken at same time as video which was at the 1st round of the Competition on 19th January. I believed it had been doctored because of Michael's badge on his cap, which I believe is a first and because I can't see the badge that clearly didn't want to display in case it was something "unbecoming" to Michael that someone had put on as a "joke" !!

Wasnt sure if either of these links have been posted. I really don't like golf and find it incredibly boring, but was sent these linksby a friend and thought I'd share it.
I'd have no aversion to going to see Michael play though and would be willing for him to teach me a bit about it to see if he can convert me. It would be a hard job and may take days or weeks in his company, but for the sake of 'the game' I'd be willing to give it a go!!
Like I said, no idea if its been posted before, as I dont look at Michaels golf threads or follow his golfing at all as it just doesn't interest me, but I hope you enjoy it. Looks like there might be photos and an interview with Michael (I enjoy those bits, but the actually game bores me silly!!! LOL)
Enjoy.

Thanks for the links. Better to get them more than once than not at all. I am not a huge golf fan either but as a fan of MB's love going to see him play and I have learned more about the sport over the last 13 years going..MB has such fun and you never know what other celebs you may see also. I've met quite a few over the years and everyone is in such a relaxed mood.. It's a different side to MB..Hard to explain if you have never attended a tournament and followed him around for 5 hours on a golf course..Some of the best times I've had as a fan.
Thanks for posting in this golf thread!!!

Thanks a million Jennifer for putting those links in......some bits and pieces have already been put in but not in their entirety and certainly not the one capturing the pictures of that wind funnel that blew up Pebble Beach and caused such destruction....some of those pictures are pretty terrific and what a clean up job the officials must have had especially fishing some of the debris out of the lakes !!
Can well appreciate those that don't like golf and find it boring but I am a mad keen sports fan, no matter what the sport, so reporting on something like Michael playing golf is certainly no hardship for me and of course coming from the part of the world where Sam Torrance and Colin Montgomery come from and now living in Sam's hometown and seeing him often, when he is home to visit his parents, makes it even easier !!
Thanks again for the links Jennifer !! :)
Sylvia. Your wee Scottish friend.

Nothing better than Michael re-runs Jennifer!!!! Never get tired of that face or voice!!! I don't know much about golf myself but I sure did have a WONDERFUL time when I chatted with him on the golf course at his charity in Ojai!!! What a surprise Bolton Adventure that was!!!! So it's not a bad idea to take up "Bolton Golf".....LOL

I'm willing to learn about golf, but only if Michael wants to spend a few days..or maybe weeks or months even, teaching me!! It could even require several visits from him for it to sink in with me??
Now, give me a Formula 1 race and I'm as happy as Larry (who ever he is?)
Love F1, I grew up on the tracks with my Dad as a track marshal and we grew up with all of the big name drivers as our family friends. Damon hill and I are still friends today which is lovely. My Dad was even an advisor on the big screen film Grand Prix and I remember my Dad going to Germany for the filming. I used t osit in Graham Hills car as he parked it up in the pits!! Blimey you can get anywhere near them nowadays!!
It's strange, but neither my husband and none of my lads like sports like that. They hate football, rugby and cricket etc..but they do like grass track and moto cross but only if they are the ones doing the riding!!
Now, perhaps Michael should run a competition for one of us to play a round of golf with him? I'll drive the golf cart thingy or I could bring my electric wheelchair to carry his clubs? ;)
