Number 1
The people who don’t understand the handicap systems are the new Covid golfers that watch tons of YouTube golf and don’t understand the game
I'd love to know where you guys have played outside of Tralee and Waterville so far. Francis seems to wonder the conversation into Francisland every time talking about nonsense like ice and the handicap system.
Soft yanks
On the ice point and AC. As Martin says we dont have the temperatures here for the need. We spend 10months of the year trying to keep heat in rather than cool down.
Also as a culture we know filling a glass full of ice is the cheapest way of filling a drink and if a business give us a glass full of ice with the drink we would feel ripped off as we are paying for the drink not for ice.
Great podcast and great to have you's in N.Ireland and Ireland 😀
34:55 “i dont put my name behind many brands” yes you certainly do riggs 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 what a joke that ad read is
Imagine being in that bus capped at 49mph (80km) lol. No wonder it’s taking you guys hours. Ireland is like 300 miles wide. Thats 2.5 hours of driving in Rural America especially for big rig truckers
Bro no ice? Ireland 🤦♂️
Drink Beamish!!!!!!!!!!!!
