New to Ottawa... What a great forum!

[Bridget Michels]

Hey Folks,

Just moved here from Nova Scotia. I'm a certified golf fitness professional (in-home and office), and look very forward to another great business here in Ottawa. I'm really loving the friendly local people, and beautiful city.

Drop me a line to say hello!

All the best,

Bridget (the Bluenoser)

Based on the number of people on this forum (and the ridiculous number of man-hours spent on it), your business is going to thrive. Good luck and welcome.

[up&down]

Welcome to ottawa and wish you well in the Business

[mcgoo]

Good to have another Bluenoser abord.

[Bridget Michels]

Why thank you! I really appreciate that..
How long have you been playing?

[mcgoo]

Took the game up on my 65th Birthday. This is my third summer and I am now playing in the 90's regularily. Going to NS the last week of this month to play at the most beautiful course in the World, Chester.

[Bridget Michels]

A few years ago was the Golf Fitness Trainer at Fox Harb'r Golf Resort (AND the house singer a well). Have you golfed there yet?
It's very beautiful (Stunning rooms/views, upscale spa/gym, outstanding restaurant, etc.)! Owned by Ron Joyce of Tim Horton's fame.
Here's the link: www.foxharbr.com

Check it out if you've not already, though I do agree Chester is gorgeous!

I have driver by the compound (gates) with envy. Use to spend time at River John. How do I get an invitation to play Fox Harbour with three friends form Halifax on/or about July 26th. Playing Chester July 28th.

[Bridget Michels]

just give 'em a call... seems to me they're not private now, but rather a 'stay and play' this summer (that was the idea at Christmas time when I was there) Call them at Reservations: 1 866-257-1801
...and let me know!

[mcgoo]

Just called them. Expensive, $800 plus tax a night for two including golf mid week. Golf is $200 plus tax a round mid week.

[Bridget Michels]

Wow! It's gone waaaaaaay up! Must be trying to weed out the 'average joe'. I know they have certainly had a number of famous celebrities playing there since it opened (The Bushs, Clinton, Woods have played; Anne Murray and Bobby Orr have their own lockers there, etc.).
ah well.

Hey, i'm happy to see some Bluenoser's around here. I've been a lurker on the forums since January when I moved here, just not much of a poster. Golfing a lot again now since I finished university in December and I can afford it again, (25 rounds this year so far!). Still working to get back into the form I was in as a junior golfer but having a lot of fun doing it! Cheers!

Are you one of thotho's TO friends?

[kontesto]

Oh God No! I just feel that everyone should experience thotho's antics at some point or another. I can't help but laugh when I read the posts. Especially the one about cleaning clubs in the toilet.

I'm from Toronto/London, friends with GolfBum (Rick) and M_Portiss.

I see, but I have to tell you, I've played two rounds with him and I've been utterly disappointed. Not one out of the ordinary, crazy or zany thing to talk about. What a let down.

Well just so you aren't disappointed tomorrow, I will bring along some peanut butter and run ahead of you on each hole.... Or I could just bring a gun and shoot you if you are beating my ass after a few holes!

[Bridget Michels]

Okay, I'll bite: Who is ThoTho, and why should I meet him?
...and... peanut butter? What on earth is THAT all about?! lol.

...and what's in it for the hamster?

[Kilroy]

thotho has a knack for getting involved with very unusual situations on the course. One involved peanut butter.

I am gonna kick his butt around my course tomorow. Should be fun!

Welcome Bridget.. If you have a website please let us know.

[big mac]

Bridget--I have never met "thotho" but some of his posts are better than the old comic strips---you have to read the peanut butter one---click on his avatar and start
searching. Have fun. Welcome.
