If this column seems a little disjointed and nonsensical, there’s a very good reason for it…I’m so sick I can barely lift my head off the pillow.

To me, there’s nothing worse than catching the summer flu or this recent invasion of "sinusitis" which has been going around because your mind says, "hey, nice day…go play golf" and your body replies "go to hell".

I arrived at VGCC for the charity golf tournament, excited to see what Clair Bornthwaite,er…Blaine Cornthwaite…er, Zane Cornholio…er, whatever his name is…did with the course and I gotta admit that the West Course looked and played 1000 per cent better. Granted, I three-putted most of the greens, but that was my fault, not Zane’s as I haven’t practiced in quite a while.

Vietnam National Day always holds special significance for me as, besides marking the date of Vietnam’s independence, it also means that it is once again time for the granddaddy of all Vietnam’s charity tournaments…Swing For Life.

It will also give me another chance to visit my old stomping grounds at Vietnam Golf & CC in Thu Duc and catch up with some old friends.
