      Can’t knock your getting in first with each comment for maximum troll effect, but do change it up a bit with the subject matter. Otherwise I’m a huge fan.

      Of course the old wives tale that states golf is an acronym for “Gentlemen Only, Ladies Forbidden” is incorrect. Golf was invented in 1643 by a gent called Ristard Le Foure who thought it would be great gas to whack a small ball with a stick, run after it and try to get to it before it lands (thus was also born the sport of hurling). As he hit the ball, his friends would all shout “Go on Le Foure” and this was the abbrieviated to GOLF in later years. Incidentally his name is still used to this day in the sport when a ball goes wayward but modern day golfers drop the Le.

      Yet the giggles will resonate for weeks through the cafés and boutiques on main street. It’s safe and slightly ironic as water charge worries are for the poor.

      Dear Hoop,

      Apparently you too have difficulty reading. This is not “Malahide Golf Club”. It’s the mad witty “Malahide *Castle* Golf Club”. Or more accurately a public pitch and putt course located in the castle grounds.

      Yours pedantically,
      DeSelby
