And they're under starters orders...............

On Saturday we see the start of the pub golf grand prix season 2006-2007. This inaugural competition will begin in the old Roman fortress and University town of Caerleon which is a few miles away from Wales’ newest city Newport.

While The Rooster is still unsure of competitors early information states that whilst there will be a strong Gwent influence, The chickens will be joined by a champion guzzler from Llanelli and of course there is also rumour abound that the Cock will be gracing us with his presence.

With the ‘Oval social hand grenade from over the bridge’ not attending I do feel that a podium finish is there for the taking.

I only wish that Tew, Pies and Thug were taking part. In the first ever pub golf – which incidentally was the full 18 holes, Tew ‘cooked’ our glorious co-founder and uber hermit Thug Roberts by 1830hrs.
I hasten to add that this was when Tew was in his pre-nancy boy stage and could drink a little. I mention this because Tew was next to join the ‘list of the shamed’ when after 14 holes had to be helped into is Car like a giant spacker while his missus and kid watched on.

Gold medal and top of the list goes to Saxon oil change monkey, Pies who was so hung over turning up to pub golf a few months ago, had to leave after 15 minutes not touching a drop and going home at quarter past twelve (yes in the afternoon).

Pub golf is not just about drinking but also about mental strength and determination. With this in mind I do expect the arrogant half French Canadian to be in jail rather than bed by 10 and ‘The Voice of division 3 rugby and golf’ to be home so early that he gets in a Delorean time machine car and actually asks Lyn to pick him up in the year 1993.

London Welsh will pull while I will have to follow ‘The cock’ around as he tells everybody he’s 27.

All chickens are welcome – Get involved!!!
