I am just there. And Rob, he’s uh pretty he’s pretty pleased with that. I see a three-wood is out over there. Yeah, he needs a needs a good rescue here. It’s a chippy one. Oh, where did that go? into the longer roof. I don’t have to go for it. All right. In that in the bottom there, it’s sand. Is it? So, you might be all right. That’s where wasteland. Yeah. It’s been a nightmare in that. Every time you got me on camera, I’ve sliced it. Every time you not been on camera, you’ve duffed it. Rob’s trying to gain half a foot. Yeah, that’s all right. He needs it. Get round. Might be okay though. Might be okay. Yeah, a bit of a scrappy start so far. Lots of big numbers, boys. I’ll be feeling three down. Yeah, it’s hard. Hard.
