Ace,
Great points I mimic this style of golf myself.
Unfortunately, I am even further away from these distances. I have been doing
my part in social distancing for yrs.
Business as usual for me :-)

Yes, this….!
This great article omitted only one important item, to wit: Using an example
of safety as the ultimate reason why golf is so important to our well-being
in this COVID-19 environment - and that would be that players like me are
mostly far removed from the other members of our foursome while shloging
through the kaka looking for my errant ball plus I’m normally 20-35 feet from
the flagstick when putting while others are at least 15 feet closer.
Yours for retaining a ridiculous distance from others, I remain,

Stupidity is depressing. Excessive Stupidity is really depressing.
My personal plan to self-isolate and keep my social distance (more than my
introverted self's normal distance) is supported by the below very well
researched article. You can hang your SOGAGG (Blue or Red) Hat on that for
sure. WOXOF

I subscribe to this daily report. Check out the fourth paragraph down (“On
the plus side”) and click on the “this branch of Costco” URL. It’s come to
this folks…

Good Wednesday morning. It’s Day 2 of the U.K. coronavirus lockdown.
RATIONING RETURNS: Britain’s third-largest supermarket chain Sainsbury’s is
now rationing all goods in its stores to prevent panic buyers clearing the
shelves. In a message to customers early this morning, Sainsbury’s boss Mike
Coupe said shoppers will be able to buy a maximum of three of any single
grocery product from now on, and a maximum of two of the most popular items
including toilet paper, soap and UHT milk. “We have enough food coming into
the system,” he said. “[We] are limiting sales so it stays on shelves for
longer and can be bought by a larger numbers of customers.”
And there’s more: Sainsbury’s is also introducing a “silver hour” at the
start of each day for older customers to shop, and an expanded “click and
collect” service to allow self-isolating customers and others who cannot get
a delivery slot to order online and then collect their pre-packed shopping
from the car park. Expect much more of this from other large stores in the
days to come. City A.M. has the latest.
On the plus side: At least you weren’t queuing for groceries at this branch
of Costco in southern California last Friday. Yikes.
**A Message from Barclays: We have a helpline for SME customers affected by
coronavirus (COVID-19). If you’re a U.K. Business Banking client that’s been
impacted, please call us on 0800 1971 0861 #BackingtheUK.**
DRIVING THE DAY
A LONG TIME IN POLITICS: Boris Johnson is preparing for prime minister’s
questions this morning in a world barely recognizable from just one week ago.
This time last Wednesday morning Chancellor Rishi Sunak was putting the
finishing touches to a revamped budget which included a “timely and targeted”
£12 billion package to help Britain deal with the coronavirus outbreak. Fast
forward seven days and Britain is waking up to the news that Sunak is now
prepared to prop up every ailing business in the country with tax breaks,
cash grants and almost unlimited taxpayer-backed loans totaling at least £330
billion — with much more to come in the days ahead.
How today pans out: Discussion of Sunak’s bailout is likely to dominate much
of the
