A round of golf with old friends
I got out for a round of golf today with some old friends from school. A couple of them are living in London now and they were home so we went to play 18 holes in Glenlo Abbey which is pretty close to my house here in Galway.
It's a really nice golf course, a little bit pricey, but a fine track especially in the Summer months.
Here's a few photos from around the course. I played pretty well, bagging seven pars and a good few bogeys. I did have 3 double bogeys and triple bogey too, but overall it was a solid performance, but the best thing was catching up with old buddies and hearing about how their lives are going in the UK. Stories about wives, children, work and golf were exchanged and it was really good to see the guys.
The Pullman Restaurant
This is a pretty funky restaurant that they have beside the golf course known as the Pullman restaurant. It's an old carriage of the Orient express railway and you can dine on the carriage which I've done before withmy wife and she loved it.
I'm fact, the first time her parents came to visit, we brought them here for dinner.
Here's another few photos from out around the golf course today. You really can't beat a nice round of golf on a Sunday. It's definitely one of my favourite things to do!
