Kent Open and the NEW HOUSE!!!!

I won't dwell too much on the Kent Open aspect of this blog. All I'll say is that I shot 78 (+6) in the morning in very tough conditions which marked my best score in competition this year and then abandoned my afternoon round after 9 holes due to abysmal weather and also the desire to avoid the golfing demons emerging as I was beginning to feel it. For perhaps the first time ever in my golfing career, I've got my temporament well managed on the golf course so I wasn't gonna allow one bad round to ruin all the good work I've done lately. Hence, I felt abandonment was my only option in this case (and my playing partner was happy to oblige also).

I played 36 holes on wednesday this week. I shot 70 (-2) in the morning at Hollingbury and then 77 (+5) in the afternoon at The Dyke. To have a +3 total for the day felt pretty good as I haven't been performing very consistently of late and managed to keep a double bogey or worse off my card the whole day.

So, to the big big news. We have now finally exchanged, completed and done on our house!!! We even have the keys and been in and started cleaning. This is mega exciting as it has been such a long time coming. The house is great! It's such a weird feeling to walk in and think 'I own this!' but it's very cool. I spent the night there last night which was awesome. My first night in my first house - woohoo!! And thus the moving process begins. I am going to start painting this weekend hopefully and then we will get furniture soon and begin to get everything in. We are in a nice road in a nice area and the whole place seems very peaceful which is always a relief when you move somewhere new.

Anyways, this is all still in the embryo stage so I'll try to write weekly to document the progress.

Till next time....
