Some Days It's Good To Be Alive

On a clear day you can see for ever

And today is certifiably such a day. My esteemed friend Big Willy and I are snatching a golf break in Anglesey and today we have laughed in the face of the gods. Much of the country, we learn, is shrouded in fog and yet we have played in bright sunshine (shirt sleeve order) at Holyhead Golf Club. As they would have it in the vernacular, a distinctly tidy golf course. Seriously, pay it a visit. James Braid design, not remotely long, several notable short par fours and very good par threes. We will return.
