My Daughter she moved from one Town in Kent to right on my doorstep in Bexhill on Sea, East Sussex…(Near Hastings…1066 history… practically 2 minutes walk away…We said after a few years, we are now Moving to France…she get’s on a Plane, not long after that chat,
All by herself, Miss Independent…She bought a French House before even we did…:shock:
The city of Chicago is getting it’s first ever full 18 hole disc golf course, located in Hyde Park, which was also the location of the 1893 Worlds Fair. I’ve been in touch with the director and had expressed my willingness to donate my prized Hole #14 basket that came from the Lemon Lake Disc Golf complex, which has a rich disc golf history. It is my honor to be able to put this basket in the ground and also to be the the person to have the inaugural first throw at it. We’ve made arrangements for this coming Saturday.
You give some you get some…Congrats on that Pat…
I will push for the genuine signature now…getting the smell of dollars here…lol
I had quite a few Autographs over just a few years of asking some band members and being in to right place at the right time…Don’t have it now…reasons out of my control…
I bet you can’t wait…Will ask for photos if you get the chance or the want to…
Cheers with the good news, Plonker…
I think they’re dong a bit of a ceremony, so there will be some pics. My scribble wouldn’t be worth the material it’s scribbled on. lol I’d wait a bit on that one.
It takes place inside the grounds of the [B]Old Joliet Prison[/B]. If you’ve ever watched the movie The Blues Brothers, then you’ve seen the front gate where Jake is released at the beginning of it. Quite a few other things have been filmed there as well, like the series Prison Break and a few others. It’s a decent temporary 18 hole course we set up throughout the property, and it’s been scaled back a bit due to some of the buildings becoming unsafe from erosion. We get players from all over the US that come out just for the unique experience it holds. Looking forward to it. Here I am at the helm at last years event:
Well that Joliet Prison was …is Famous and worth reading up about, then I went onto reading about Chicago, so know more than I did…
Got over excited when I was sent a message from another Forum ‘chum’
And the location know it like the back of my hand. My Sister and I spent half our childhood in Lloyds Park on our bikes…It had the deepest bike dive…like a skateboard park of today’s younguns
Hey I can’t hang around today, so called yearly Brain MRI they call it IRM here but still a hurdle I have to climb…
Catch you maybe this evening…Poitier Polyclinique awaits me…
I have my lucky mascot with me…lol…

Just is going to be such a grand day for you Plonker…I’m slightly envious…My practice around the Garden has made our Elderly neighbour’s. smile a lot…Husband walking around the Garden with Cat Saber had then really puzzled…and now a frisbee wannabe…
Yes all went well today…no detection of any Brain, so ok for a while…
Cannot get over the new one at Croydon…Lloyds Park…they will find Rosi and I’s signatures around there…lol
Thats the plan. I’ve got a bag full of Impacts, Mustangs, and Panthers (all considerably understable) ready to chuck as far as I can get them ****ers to go.
The 2 problems I see with throwing down a mountain though are getting up the mountain to throw down it and then hopefully finding where I threw it down the mountain. Big hurdles.
See location…
ve got my itinerary all mapped out. Five hours of travel each day is very doable, so I’ll have plenty of time to get some rounds in at each stop. One of which will be a 2-day stay in sunny downtown Des Moines so I get to see all the corn. Then we’ll whisk away to Kearney NE for a brief round of quality disc golf and then finally on to Denver where we’ll be staying at a fancy shmancy place until we get kicked out because I should be broke by then.
For the ride home, I’ll probably just drive straight through with a stop at Starved Rock.
just what Plankton is up to…sounds like such a fun vacation…
