 Well, I hope you all had a great Christmas, I did. :)
Boxing day hasn't worked out quite so well. Got Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2009 for the Wii for Christmas, along with a couple of golf clubs. Had a game yesterday and it's great fun. Unfortunately, one of the golf clubs seemed to shatter when Helen's dad tee'd off yesterday so he's had to play with a headless club!
Today, we set about another couple of rounds of golf. The first game went well (because I won today, I lost on the 18th hole yesterday)! The second game had some moments... like the batteries went flat in my controller just as it looked like I was going to get a hole in one! The ball teetered on the edge of the hole and a message appeared on the screen saying that my controller was disconnected! I quickly replaced the batteries but I think the pause stopped my ball, it didn't go in!!!! Ah well, it was close, reported as centimeters from the hole. A couple of holes later and I tee'd off with a cracking shot... unfortunately it was my golf club's turn to break, and it flew straight into the screen on my £1000 40" LCD TV. No, it didn't survive, we now have no telly. :(
Will phone Comet tomorrow morning and test out their extended warranty which is supposed to cover any accidental or otherwise breakage. I hope the salesman was telling me the whole truth when he sold me the policy otherwise he'll be visiting the hospital to have a broken golf club removed from part of his anatomy.

(User Info | Send a Message) | | Had you been drinking by any chance, a little drunken golf will always end in tears.... of laughter normally, but not when your brand new TV gets wrecked!
Hope you get it sorted mate. |
