Smart guy. Not the 1st to innovate with equipment.

Remember Phil winning at Augusta with 2 drivers in his bag (one to draw, one to fade).

Sandy Herd winning The Open in 1902 playing the Haskell Ball.

But technology developing at such a pace means the regulators need to keep up

So many of those who sneer and snark at suburbia and people who live there are a classic case of a metropolitan elite living in an urban(ist) bubble holding the majority of people in disdain for how they live - or aspire to live - their lives.

Fascinating history of one of Yorkshire’s oldest golf courses, involving the decline in cold water spa treatments, and an The Open champion. And still a fabulous place to play golf. ⛳️

Goosebumps! Still remember this as if it was yesterday. We sat in the front row of the top tier of the old Trinity Rd stand at Villa Park. Liverpool were cruising at the top of the league and had beaten Palace 9-0 earlier that season. Nobody expected this result.

Have eaten my body weight in delicious cheese at the legendary Martinez Wines cheese and wine evening. Five The Courtyard Dairy cheeses paired with five wines. Exceptional!

Proposals for civil service reform rarely consider the perspective of other tiers of governance.

But as devolution matures, a more strategic Whitehall should evolve how it interfaces with regions and localities.
