money 14 August 2009
Well, my golf wager is going nowhere at this stage (even with 2 days of the competition still to go). I’d say both of my players – justin rose and sergio garcia – will make the cut for tomorrow but they’re not really in the running anymore, seems to me. It’s actually a great, personal lead-in for the greyhound racing tomorrow night in honour of my Dad as its got me used to losing and tomorow will just be more throwing of good money after bad and, lord knows, Padraig McLynn had enough of those days himself (so you see, tis homage, really). Philip is over from London so the little childhood nucleus of McLynns will be reconvened, though sadly without The Daddy. It’s not that often that we all get to be together so it’s good to take the opportunity as it arises. Actually, it would be hilarious if my Dad did turn up…and I’d say I could get tremendous odds on that as a wager…
