REFLECTIONS OF THE 2013 TOUR Roger tries a new way to consume a COCKTAIL
After listening to this young lady’s story Roger said ”What’s a
PRETTY PLACE
like you doing in a drink like this?”
Roger said this was a result of a
WARDROBE MALFUNCTION
but we all know it’s because of too much prune juice.

THE MASTER and his apprentice McCaff. McCaff, shouldn’t you be the master?
After being soundly thrashed by Cobbles and Adams at pool, a
MAJOR DUMMY SPIT
by Ribs and Douglas became imminent
Ribs: “Why are you
Judging by the look on P.J’s face the local water obviously
DIDN’T TASTE TOO GOOD
14
PULLING A FACE like that P.J?” PJ: “It’s only water.”

“SETTLE DOWN Ah Key, that’s not this year’s trophy!” Although BATMAN AND ROBIN were no where to be seen.. the penguin certainly was!
There were many surprises at the ‘97 JSTC Tour, but no-one expected MR BEAN to turn up with his long lost brother

After being caught with the Ah Key’s glasses, Adams was sentenced to spend an evening filled full of great advice with a slightly SHORT-SIGHTED AH KEY.

Tour coach Darryl gives his star recruit. .. Mike Hall a proper dressing down for choking in front of goals. Mike’s response ... to coach Darryl was, “but coach someone gave me a coat hanger”
Sneyd decided that McCaff’s red wine teeth were too much of a turn-on.
GETTING WARMED UP...
Cobbles, Freer, Bugg, Taig enjoy a quiet ale or three before their seafood platter. Just for the record, Adams didnt miss out on the pre feast feast.
Pictured from left: Adams, Bell, Bugg, Ah Key, Cobbles and Hunt hard at work on tour with Russell in the background. Ah Key was heard muttering “OK you blokes don’t pinch my wallet, give me a wedgie or pinch my arse.

The seat belts on the bus were perfect for keeping slightly tipsy golfers from falling onto the floor and damaging themselves.
Gaylard spills his drink among other things. Oh dear Gaylard spilled his drink getting off the bus ... he doesn’t seem to have much luck with buses does he!
Members of the JSTC team selected their best clubs for this hole which happened to be their members. Clearly apart from the others Taig was overheard muttering that his set was adult size ... where as he felt the others were junior sets. He was also heard saying “for this shot I’m selecting my great big Bertha with the non slip grip.”
Alistair at it again, trying to get rid of the yips. “Damn it’s still not working, that bloody golf coach is hopeless’!
24
Hello, is that Ernie ... YOU’RE SACKED ... again”!

SOMETHING DIFFERENT You’ve got to be the worst caddie on earth. I don’t think so, sir. It would be too much of a coincidence
The True Rules Of Golf The game of golf is 90% mental and 10% mental. If you want to get better at golf, go back and take it up at a much earlier age. Since bad shots come in groups of three, a fourth bad shot is actually the beginning of the next group of three. No matter how bad you are playing, it is always possible to play worse
Noting that her husband looked more haggard and disgruntled than usual after his weekly golf game, his wife asked what was wrong. He answered, “Well, on the fourth hole, Harry had a heart attack and died. It was terrible! The entire rest of the day, it was hit the ball, drag Harry, hit the ball, drag Harry!”
A friend of Henry’s dies suddenly. A week later, he comes back to tell his friend how great Heaven is. “Henry,” he says, “you won’t believe it, but there is golf in Heaven.” “That is wonderful!” Henry replies. “Don’t be so thrilled,” his friend tells him. “You have a tee-off time scheduled for Saturday.”
