Passing - On the Old Lady
Time to decide, which course after Scotscraig?
Since I've already played the Old Course I'll pass on the Old Lady.
However won't pass on passing on this bit of information about the Old Course.
If you're determined to play there no matter how long it takes to get a tee time.
Chances are you'll enjoy the experience but not the golf course.
I'm not the first person to make this comment but in need of someone of higher standing to back me up - I'll quote David Fay, Executive Director of the USGA.
'Anyone who raves about the Old Course after just one or two rounds there is either a liar or a fool,'
However I won't pass on having a wee dram at The Road Hole Bar at the Old Course Hotel
And after tasting one or two of the 174 malts they have available, I'll probabbly end up in my cups and advise those who'll listen that when I first played the Old Course the Railway Sheds were still in existence.
Ah yes tempus fugit indeed
