So I have been watching the new Derren Browns series, ever living in the hope that I too may be stuck to my chair with an impossible force or be able to pick the winning lottery tickets but oh what a surprise that my lazy ass can do none of these things. or can they!
So Saturday night I feel strangely confident about my Sunday game of golf. Not sure why, not sure what gave me this feeling.
I get to the course and the stomach is feeling upturned. I speak to a couple of lads and say, hey I am really nervous about this game today. They ponder for a moment and ask why.
I don't know, I feel I am going to play well, very well; So much so, I am going to win today.
After a smoke and a hole or two those nerves disappear and before I know it I am hitting straight and driving long. My putting is working and I am still over hitting the short game but luck is with me and I am getting the good bounces and avoiding the water.
After an unusually quick round of 3hrs 45 mins (and not buggies), I finish first and win with my all time best score.
I have no idea why I knew I was going to win and do so well but I can be certain I did know it was going to happen.
I think it is time to buy another lotto ticket.
