The G force...
The A-Z of themes has just given us one of our busiest nights in a long time. I don't know what it was but you really seemed to love the idea of a French night. I thought the music worked really well - a mix of old classics, some delights from the fringes and one or two genuine crowd pleasers.
How do we follow it up though? Do we go for Michael Bird's suggestion听 of gambling, Valerie in Shetland's geographical features or Ann in Plean's theme of the songs you stick on the stereo when you want your dinner guest to say 'goodbye'! I find Auld Lang Syne normally does the trick.
With the open kicking off in St Andrews then it had to be G for golf. Oh, and if you think I struggled with French then how am I going to cope with a whole new sporting lingo. I'm off to speak to Richard Gordon to learn the difference between a birdie and a bogie.

Loved that French theme tonight! Don't know what the fuss about St Etienne is, always sounds slightly out of tune to me. No matter. My taste in music is sometimes hard to fathom, too.
Golf theme? Immediate horrible thought was the Birdie Song (can't be bothered to check who it was by). Forget it.
Golfing "terms" thanks to another website full of golfing terms.

would like to request Lonely Island (featuring "T" Pain) I'm On A Boat , but can't see it getting played (if that's not mixing up the sensory allusions too much already). Even the clean version sounds sweary. Pity. It's fun. If you like that sort of thing.

H is for "Hello?" Ironic or just blissfully optimistic.
H is for "How did that happen?" (when a song you never expected to get a play, got played. Or the opposite) Or just about lovely times something nice happened.
H is for "Holidays" - the little pockets of sanity that you only get 5 weeks a year, if you're lucky. 13 weeks, if you're a teacher. Even then, you only enjoy a third of them. If you're lucky.
H is for "hey, you - get off of my cloud!" A wee note to those who think you're unbearably smug. Not many people try to think inside other people's lives. It's easier to look at the upsides (when it's not themselves) and imagine that that is all there's to it. Stuff that. If you've done something you're proud of and want to shout it out even if you know there are naysayers - tonight's the night.

However, most golfers refer to the other clubs formerly called woods as woods. Some really fussy golf commentators insist on calling today's woods, "metals" as in "Elin just harpooned Tiger's windshield with his three metal; I hope the club is OK; he'll need that for the second shot on the 15th at Augusta."
My three wood has no wood but I'm calling it a three wood until my soon-to-be-ex-wife helicopters it over the back fence. I'm not sure what I'll do then.
Probably purchase the latest three wood.
