    Our three times a week roll-ups which today included a total of 16 members, start arriving for our games from 9.00am.
    None of the club's catering facilities are open at that time of the morning, but the professional, or usually his assistant will make members a cup of coffee or tea provided in a plastic cup at a price of 50p for the several who go in.
    When I arrived this morning, being one of the first, it was chaos in the pro-shop as there'd been a break-in over the week-end where £14,000 of equipment and clothing had been stolen on Saturday night. The double glazing firm were in the process of fitting a new door.
    Talking to the pro, I discovered that the stock wasn't insured as it wasn't available due to the isolated location of the club. After offering my commiserations, I asked the inevitable.
    "They didn't steal the kettle did they?"
    He must have gone through the same dialogue with at least four other members who followed me in. Give him his due, he saw the funny side as he said he'd already had a day to get over it. and we all got our drinks
