God. Oh, not bad. Yeah. Actually, that could be fairway. So, you pick up your own, don’t you? Yeah, I’ll get that. I tell kids these days, just put yourself in terrible lies. Everyone can hit a good off a good lie, right? So, put yourself in bad positions. And I think that’s why, you know, I’ve got such good touch is because I I do that.

So, you’re going back to being a kid again. Exactly. Exactly. Uh, no, it was really fun. I enjoyed it and uh it was competitive. It was actually really good. I mean, I had to I had to lock in cuz we have a lake at Royal Free Manal and loser had to dip their feet in. So, you know, I have got the videos of them putting their feet in the water. So, so you dusted them up. I dusted them down. Yeah. All right. That’s very good. That’s good for you. Like it went in at speed. You took everything out of play. So, you’ve done exactly what I told you. Exactly. This is the BMW hole in one. You know what that is? Oh, that’s lush. Just drawing that little bit.

You know favorites you know favorites are in there. FaceTime them now and then. And I know they’re both busy with their kids. Uh they don’t need another kid calling them. Guess what?
