Bathurst Golf Club Revisited Two Years On.
I had waited some two years firstly to revisit my younger brother and his family, including niece Nikki and nephew Jamie, but also to step back out onto Bathurst Golf Club.
The attraction to again tee-up at Bathurst Golf Club, and a course I had been present in the early 1990s to report on the New South Wales, was in every part down to John Payne.

Louis Oosthuizen Looking For Double Flight Delay Magic In Malaysia.
The last time Louis Oosthuizen was delayed on route to Malaysia he captured the 2012 Maybank Malaysian Open title.

Grants Beach – Unspoilt Pacific Ocean Shoreline North Of Sydney … See The Video.
It could have been so easy to jump back onto the Pacific Highway for the straightforward three hour drive back to Sydney.
I had just spent a wonderful few days, in between Christmas and New Year, in Port Macquarie with long-time good friend Brian Johnson and his wife, Suzie.
