Swing Slow - Watch It Go.

Chris Evans | 10:29 UK time, Tuesday, 20 July 2010

Don't normally do this, but am off to play in a charity golf tournament today. Justin Rose's Golf Day is for a very very worthy cause and it should be a fab experience all round.

So, I'll finish the show, meet the accountant (always a knee trembler), and then I'll attempt to find the golf course in question - that's the most difficult bit. If I ever get there, I shall keep the head down, the left leg straight, and then try not to lose too many balls.

Where do they all end up by the way ???

    Oh Christophe, the mystery of missing balls ..... indeed, where do they go!?! I have kept a few in my handbag over the years, until the owners wanted them back!

    ;-)

    Have a good one. Wish I was!

    Sentiments Meant & Sent YOUR Way CLP & ALL...

    Bingo Star 'ere...

    CLP - Wooow whatta coincidence... I've just finished me golf diary of when I went to Wentworth to see the top golfers of the European Tour play there & INDEED yerself CLP... And it was worth it!!!!!!!! (see me report bit later!!!)

    It's great so many people who get into a authoritative position either in showbizz or sport are able to use that position for charity!!!!!
    I was reading Ian Poulter's tweets & a see he has just been involved with 100k being given for his charity, today yerself taking part in Justin Rose's charity... and even at Wentworth I beleive a lot was raised from the whole event for charity!!!!!!

    Good luck today CLP... A saw that your team at Wentworth that included Brucie, Chris Hollins & top tour pro David Howell came in second in the pro-am - not an easy feat with all those tour pros taking part!!!!!

    A wreckon it must ave been Brucie's local knowledge that did the trick!!!!!!!

    'nnneerrr good game.... good game!!!!!!!'

    Bye!

    At last finished me diary, hope all enjoy even if yer not into golf... Part one actually features very little golf... more celebs, R2 DJ's & Ferraris!!!!

    Bingo Star鈥檚 BIG Day Out At Wentworth:

    So at least here is my report of my day out, in May, at the Europe鈥檚 premier golf championship event after The Open鈥 The PGA Championship at Wentworth!!!
    I had planned to go for a while to this event but I couldn鈥檛 decide do I go on the practice day or a championship day?
    In the end I decided to go to the practice day鈥 but not any practice day鈥 no.. the pro-am event which is a kind of professional meets amateur and it also tends to attract a lot of celebrities!!!!
    I like the practice days as it鈥檚 more relaxed & the players are more likely to chat, sign autographs & have a laugh, whereas championship days鈥 it鈥檚 all so serious & you can hear a pin drop at times!!!
    The great thing too about the pro-am day鈥 it was free to get in!!!!
    Whereas championship days entry was around 25 pounds!

    It wasn鈥檛 the first time I had been to Wentworth but this time it was the first time I had not taken my car.
    I knew the closest station was Virginia Water and then I had to find my way from there to the course: about a 2 mile walk!!!
    After getting off the train I followed my sat-nav map on my mobile.
    The walk there is interesting.
    Wentworth is basically a housing estate鈥 but not a council housing estate.
    No, this is the exact opposite鈥 a housing estate for the very rich.
    Walking through the estate down the leafy well kept roads that criss-cross all over the estate are the most beautiful large houses that most of us can only dream about.
    I was looking at some of them thinking I wonder what the person who owns that does for a living.
    I mean how could you afford such an expensive house.
    Maybe handed down through generations, maybe top bankers, owners of large companies鈥 and even top sports people or celebrities!!!
    Yes it intrigued me as to who might live at the house I walking past.
    I was having visions of Loyd Grossman on the 鈥楾hrough The Keyhole鈥 TV programme鈥 and his famous catchphrase 鈥業 wonder who lives at this house??鈥

    Wentworth golf course is made up of a few courses that wind their way around the centre area of the estate with estate roads crossing the grassy fairways.
    The course isn鈥檛 a boring square piece of land like most golf courses.
    Wentworth golf course is made up of each fairway stretching out and linking up to the next one!!!

    I had been walking for around 20 minutes and saw a lady with a dog just come out of one of the large houses.
    I decided to double check & ask her 鈥渁m I on the right track to the golf championship?鈥
    She replied with a strong South Africa accent 鈥測es, keep going straight, cross the main road.. then first right and it鈥檚 at the top of the hill!!鈥
    I thanked her & carried on.
    It got me thinking.. so she must live here & she is from South Africa鈥. interesting I thought!!!
    Maybe a lot of different nationalities live around here too!!!
    I know top golfer Ernie Els is from South Africa and has a house on the estate鈥 Maybe I鈥檝e just been talking to Ernie Els鈥檚 wife I amusingly thought to myself!!!!

    I followed the ladies directions & at last one of the many entrances to the golf course appeared!!!!
    As I got close to the security check point鈥 I heard a loud noise echoing through the trees!!!
    It sounded like a very powerful car鈥 a supercar maybe!!!
    The noise got louder鈥 then I thought鈥 wow that is a very distinctive sounding car鈥 this is something serious!!!
    Then I thought鈥 no鈥 surely it鈥檚 not CLP in one of his Ferrari鈥檚!!!
    I turned around and about 20mph鈥 a bright red Ferrari Enzo appeared!!!
    WOW!!!!!!
    It was CLP too!!!!
    He drove past me & up the hill to the main clubhouse car park.

    What a huge coincidence!!!
    I arrived at the same entrance at the same time as CLP鈥 this is really is a huge coincidence鈥 almost fate I thought.
    Of all the entrances we both arrive at the same one at the same time!!!!

    I decided to go to the car park for a closer look & to say hello to CLP!!!

    As I walked up the hill I could hear the roar of the Ferrari coming from the car park鈥 even though it was being driven very slowly manoeuvring around the car park.
    I turned the corner & WOW!!!!
    There it was鈥 the first time I have ever seen a Ferrari Enzo!!!!! (apart from 1 minute earlier!!)
    CLP reversed it back and stopped!!!
    As he got out鈥 who is standing next to the door & the first person he sees鈥. ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    He must have thought oh no.. And that I was stalking him but it was total coincidence we arrived at EXACTLY the same time!!!
    A mean I even planned to come to this golf event before I knew CLP was playing in it!!! Total fate we arrive by the same entrance at the same time!!!!!
    We chatted briefly & off CLP went to the clubhouse!!!

    As it was at the rear of the building & away from the busy area where most of the spectators where.. it was just me & CLP鈥檚 Enzo left there!!!!
    I stood there for 10 minutes taking photos & looking at every angle of the car: Peering through the driver鈥檚 window & the glass window over the rear engine bay鈥 being careful/ respectful not to touch it & put a finger print on it!!!!
    I could feel the heat of the still hot engine rising up through the vents!!!

    This was amazing for me to see this car: Being a petrol head myself; having owned a Lotus Esprit supercar of my own and being a Ferrari buff too鈥 AND Chris Evans Ferrari鈥 but not any old Ferrari鈥 a Ferrari Enzo too鈥 one of the kings of the supercar world!!!!!
    I thought to myself & joked 鈥榳ell, I could go home right now & could say I鈥檝e already had a great day out!!!鈥
    I thought it鈥檚 worth it coming here just to see the Enzo鈥 I would travel all this way just to see an Enzo鈥 forget the golf!!!!

    But I still had all the golf to come yet!!!!

    I was in cloud 9!!!!!!!!!!!!! (Well actually the back of Wentworth clubhouse to be precise!!).

    I was just about to walk off when a Bentley pulled up with a personalised plate similar to the one I鈥檝e had for years鈥 but not put on a car yet (long story- don鈥檛 ask!!!). It was 鈥橵8.. then the initials!!!!
    The car stopped right next to me & facing CLP鈥檚 Enzo!!!!
    The driver looked at me with a stern smile鈥 I recognised him鈥. it was Max Clifford!!!!!
    Blimey I thought first CLP & his Enzo鈥 now Max & his Bentley!!!

    As always humorous thoughts started to run through my head.
    I thought this could be my BIG chance to get into all the newspapers & be famous for a day!!!!
    Imagine if I managed to get into CLP鈥檚 Ferrari &鈥 errr鈥 not steal it鈥 borrow it for a drive鈥 right in front of Max Clifford!!!!
    I could just see the headlines the next morning 鈥楪olfers & Celebrities Forced To Shout FERRARI!!!!! Not FORE!!!! As Madcap Chris Evans Blogger: Bingo Star鈥 Takes Chris Evans鈥檚 Million Pound Ferrari For A Joy Ride Around Wentworth Golf Course!!!!!!!鈥

    (Only joking CLP!!!!)
    (Mind you at least it would have saved CLP having to walk all the way back to it in the car park.. If a had brought it out onto the course to him!!!!)

    My goodness I thought鈥 I鈥檝e not even seen any golf yet but so this day out has been brilliant!!!

    Continues with Part 2 tomorrow!!!

    Take care all blog pals!!!!!!

    Hi Chris: wonderful to have you back! Hilarious to think that seeing your accountant would cause you to tremble ... if an accountant was to take a look at my financial affairs, they would need oxygen! Have a great day, and don't forget to stretch tomorrow morning!

    Hope everyone else is ok. Not a chance of catching up with the blog since last Friday, so hopefully all is well.

    Hi everyone, just thought I'd look in while I am up to my neck in jam, literally.

    Dtm, you take back that middle aged remark immediately, LOL!! I hope all your plans are going well.

    I too have a fine collection of golfballs. We can see our local golfcourse from where we live and lots of the balls do end up on the beach.

    I dont suppose this is the golf course you are playing at today CLP? Nah!

    Oops lots of splattering sounds coming from the cauldron, best get back to it.

    Nice post Bingo.

    A Tuesday joke

    A Mafia Godfather finds out that his bookkeeper, Enzo, has cheated
    him outof 10 million bucks. His bookkeeper is deaf. That was the reason
    he got the job in the first place. It was assumed that Enzo would hear
    nothing that he might have to testify about in court.

    When the Godfather goes to confront Enzo about his missing $10
    million, he takes along his lawyer who knows sign language.
    The Godfather tells the lawyer, "Ask him where the 10 million bucks
    is that he embezzled from me."

    The lawyer, using sign language, asks Enzo where the money is.
    Enzo signs back, "I don't know what you are talking about."
    The lawyer tells the Godfather, "He says he doesn't know what you are
    talking about."

    The Godfather pulls out a pistol, puts it to Enzo's temple and says,
    "Ask him again!"
    The lawyer signs to Enzo, "He'll kill you if you don't tell him."
    Enzo signs back, "OK. You win! The money is in a brown briefcase,
    buried behind the shed in my cousin Bruno's backyard in Woodsville!
    The Godfather asks the lawyer, "What did he say?"
    The lawyer replies, " He says you don't have the guts to pull the trigger."

    Don't you just LOVE lawyers?

    Hope you enjoyed the golf Chris, I think this is a game I will take up when I'm retired. I like a good walk and I might as well do something useful whilst I'm walking!

    AS, Sorry it's all going a bit pear shaped, sending sympathetic hugs your way xx My best friend moved recently and they were supposed to exchange at 1:00pm on a Friday. Their house was empty, the van packed, their money in the right place, all they needed was to pick up the keys to the new house. But their buyers money hadn't gone through and the solicitor had gone to lunch!! Two and a quarter hours later they exchanged, fortunately it was a really hot day so those two hours were needed to sit and relax, but it was very frustrating for all concerned. Here's hoping a date is sorted soon.

    I know that a lot of you are experiencing rain, but it is soooooo muggy down south I am sweating!

    Afternoon each from sunny Fife.

    Chris, hope you found the golf course and enjoyed the game. Can't understand why anyone would want to do that btw.

    AS, when my ex needed yet more money to buy designer clothes I worked at weekends for a very large housebuilding company and found out that they hold all the cards in the entry date game. Months after people should have moved in and were threatening to go to the newspapers, said builders threatened them with lawyers. They even refused to part with a teeny bit of their millions to pay for storage of furniture, alternative accommodation etc. Good luck.

    'Braving south of the river'?? Well, yes, it's not the most salubrious part of Newcastle, is it? And the Aletaster isn't the most comfortable of pubs either, although I think it's a real Geordie pub - very few comfy seats to discourage women!!!!!

    Welcome back to Planet Janet Christoff. An' if yous are worried about losin' said objects wit the straight left leg, do what the chaps do oop 'ere in Wigan; Hairy string round the ankles.

    Well now. Am just back meself from me latest Missionary Tour of County Donegal and the 2013 City of Culture, Derry, tearin' round like summat soft as usual, and then on Thursday am off to Llandudno wit Renee, so don't talk to ME about gettin' back to work for a rest. Jayzus I'll need flippin' counsellin'. Am takin' 'erself to That Posh Hotel Up The Front Where They 'Ave Proper Waiters an' Crumpets. Not necessarily together, mind.

    Takes me back to me days as a nipper when we used to round off a weekend at Aunty Lily's static caravan with Sunday Lunch at the Royal Hotel in Morecambe. Oh yes. Bread an' butter cut into triangles, silver teapots wit the handles that gave yous 3rd. degree burns, an' Use Of Cruet. Oo did we think we were it. Mind you. What wit the aforementioned Aunty Lily, whom I swear had to have bin' the inspiration for Hyacinth Bucket, and Grandma, formidable an' truculent to the end, when the waitress came to take the order, Aunty Lily would order the roast chicken all round and then announce to the unfortunate waitress, "Now, we (herself and Grandma) can only eat the white meat.."

    I remember the look on the DDF Eric's face to me dyin' day. "Thanks very much, our Lily," quoth he. "A right plateful of aul toenails I'M goin' to get."

    Happy days. An' then came the piece de resistance, my favourite, the apple pie wit the bright yellow gelatinous glob that yous could roll up in the palm of your hand an' bounce under the table that passed for custard. See, they don't make THAT these days. Try rollin' Creme Fraiche up an' launchin' it at your big sister. Nah. No good at all.

    Any road up. Best haul me huge pile a washin' in while it's dark. That new neighbour over the road looks worryingly like 'e might be a washin' line bandit to me.

    I have had a lovely evening with Suzie (of the boozy ilk) - at the pub where we all met in February.... (sorry debs xxx).

    I know what you mean about proper pubs Susan - they are few and far between these days. Why does everybody send you to a Wetherspoons? (other chains are available) when all you want is an old fashioned pub......

    I am enjoying my course so far - I know at least as much (if not more) than the 2 guys on the course so I don't feel so thick..... I am averaging 7 or 8 out of 10 in the revision tests so it's not looking so bad for a 60% pass mark..... mind you I think we have done the easy part so far.....

    Suzie - Chanel No. 5???? As in Marilyn Monroe.

    Right, I'm off. Up at stupid o'clock in the morning to get hair sorted, then take 5yr old out for the afternoon, probably to a jungle near us.

    Hi Suzie - glad you got home OK - I asked the cab driver if you were going in the right direction for the tube and he said yes but then when he dropped me at the hotel he said you should have come back with me with tube station around the corner.... bit late huh?

    Had a lovely time tonight - see you soon

    Ps, Mr Mobs went off to play golf last week, for the first time in 20 years.

    When the sole fell off his shoe at hole number three, he was certainly not, in the 'League of Gentlemen' !!

    100% true.
