From the "Estonian Bavarian" also a happy new year, or as they say here: Head uut aastat. |

It is very quiet. Is everyone still recovering from New Years? |

No Mike, everythings already gone, but i don't have at time any problem games.
I also wondered, why it is so quiet. |

OK Ken, as you said "you don't HAVE to", but please do. I'm finding it hard to concentrate on what I'm doing. How can I keep my eye on the ball when the I'm snowed in with Liz. What a pair! |

I am the new kinder gentler Mike. No blows were struck over the holidays. But today was very difficult. But all the Christmas stuff is put away. So things may settle down. (fat chance) |

Kinder and gentler than before!?!?!? Is this possible???? Are you approaching true "enlightenment"? I'll reserve judgement until after you've taken the dogs for a walk in the rain or you've hit a double bogey. Then we'll see.
Minus ten here last night. The snow has set like concrete. Dogs are getting stuck to trees. Global what? |

I played golf this morning very early. It was 50 degrees and I thought it was very cold. I am glad at this time of year only, I am not in Scotland. What do they call "Cabin Fever" in Scotland. I wonder if Lord Byron wrote a poem or song about it? It's the new Mike. I didn't throw a club today at all. |

I played Pitch & Putt today. I was 50 over par at the first hole.
Don't know about Cabin Fever; not a topic we discuss in the pub or in the taxi that takes us there and back.
Lord Byron went to the same school as me, but he's nowhere near as good at poetry as me.
I didn't throw a 8eer mat today at all. |

Cabin fever is when you are kept inside for days and days. Watch out for flying 8eer mats. I like Byron's poem "There once was a lady from Glascow. Who slipped and put her foot in a bucket. She then hit her elbow and fell on her butt and said Oh go ______". You can finish it.

I know it's GLASGOW. And she said. "Oh go to Aberdeen"! Perhaps it wasn't Lord Byron. It was his younger brother Knute. |

Had Byron a brother called Knute?
An althletic and handsome young brute?
Or has Mike got it wrong?
We'd best string him along,
As he's clearly refreshed as a newt.

Don't let it worry you Mike. A great many people in this country are getting extended holidays as they are unable to get to work. Every school in Aberdeenshire is closed. We have got deep snow and the local forecast is minus twenty for later this week. We'll just settle for the holiday season weather to be "all over". |

How about it when gets down to -40? Then we won't have to ask whether it's C or F. |

If it get down to minus 40°C, you won't have to ask anything. The Polar Bears will have eaten us all. (I hear that Canada and Alaska are having exceptionally warm weather).

Why not? Richard has the temperament to be Santa Claus (or is it Father Christmas?)! |

Thank you Mike, but we have enough Poles here already.
Me? Santa Claus? What a quaint idea. Alas I have insufficient funds do undertake everything he is alleged to do. Pity. I am rich in other departments and am fond of the following quote from the world's first philanthropist (a fellow Scot).... "There is little success where there is little laughter".
I like to think that the forum is a greater success than it used to be.
