18th there the most soul sapping holes in all of golf. Think it was the longest hole in Europe for quite a while.

Jeez, that brings back childhood traumas, thinking I was the only poor wee fúcker that found it such an endless purgatory of a hole! 606 yds?

The 7th here at Glenrothes is a long one and the 1st at Whitekirk was hellish long for a par 4

Played both Darren, Whitekirk quite a few times. ‘The Awakener’ I think. Always into the wind.

I hacked my way round there with Dub and a few Bouncers too.
To be honest I can't remember much about the golf, but the waitress serving up the bacon rolls was absolutely gorgeous.

If you were shitting golf balls your diet must have been below par.

So did my grandad!

Here's a wee piece from the history of the golf club from its website. A couple of my uncles in that list.
Co-incidentally, a motley crew of regulars in the local Muirhouse Arms, Davidson’s Mains, were planning to form a Golf Section. A meeting was held in the pub on 14th June 1956, and the motion was adopted!
The men agreeing to start a Silverknowes Golf Section were:
Jimmy McKenzie – Landlord
Alastair McKenzie – Publican (Jimmy’s son)
George Black – Painter
Jim Clark – Greengrocer
Willie Trotter – Grocer
Tom Weir – Plumber
Chas. Southwell – Slater
Chas. Southwell Jnr. – Airport Baggage Master
John Blaikie – Ironmonger
Sam Adams – Gas Worker
Martin Meehan – Gas worker
John Peden (Haulage Contractor)
Magnus McDonald – Engineer
Willie McMorran – Butcher
Andrew Aitchison – Butcher
Willie Southwell – Clerk
Robert Brown – Jobbing Builder
Edward Brown – Gardener (Robert’s brother)
