Time for an update -a hole in one

 Can believe I have been retired 3 years and looking back I am so pleased I made this decision. 

Just had to share my progress with my viewers that may wander onto one of my old sites.

My handciap is now 18 which I never thought was possible and it is still in a downward trend, with some subtle disturbance (sorry some controls terminology crept in )

More importantly I managed to achieve what many golfers never achieve, yes a hole in one. I never saw it go in on the 8th at Gillingham because the flag was hidden at the back of the green. Hence I couldn't find my ball thinking it may have just gone of the back of the green. Then to my surprise one of my playing partners checked the hole an there it was. As it was a competetion GGC gave me a contribution to the bar bill. 

The 8th green with the pin at the back in a particularly difficult position, well it was a competition :-)

Time to bow out of the OU system I think.

Its been fun and I have thoroughly enjoyed teaching the OU way but with the ending of my current module and its replacement becoming a half module it's become the excuse I needed. 

No complaints on my part I met some fantastic students and formed good friendships within the OU community. All part of the plan as I move into retirement to reduce the workload and focus on the things that really matter.

I started as an OU student on M101 in 1990 and finished with a BSc MA ODE and 15 years as a tutor in 2018, thank you so much !!
