Academia, Old Tom Morris and a London Letdown

[Noel Mugavin]

Dinner at Mr Wangs, then the short battle with the wind to the sanctuary of the hotel ready for an early start the next morning.

Early exit and quite a task trying to stay as quiet as possible with a heavy bags and creaky stairs.


Used my return portion of yesterday's tram ticket to get back to the airport

Rental cars for me



First time driving a Renault. New fan.


Hours drive north eastish and into St Andrews. Bit of an issue turning into a one way street and not being able to put the car in reverse. No manual in the glove box, so car turned off, bit of googling and soon back on my way.
Sun is out, but brutally cold and windy.
Looking across the Himalayas Putting Course with the Links Clubhouse in the foreground and the Old Course Hotel in the background.

First and 18th fairway, Royal and Ancient Golf Club in the background, dwarfed by the Hamilton Grand, apparently built out of spite
