Summary

This week the trio consider drinking, partying and generally being obnoxious. Then decide to record a pod instead.

But what is going on with behaviour at golf events, or indeed, in general? The weekend’s PGA Tour event left us with much to ponder. Eddie informs us that the best result of his Middle East trip was being summoned forward by the captain on his return flight, leaving good men back in the wasteland of premium economy. Andrew tells us of the agony of being labelled a queue jumper. Iain tells us how he once went paintballing with a group of children.

Folding Pocket

0:03.6

It's time now for the chipping forecast

0:13.5

issued by Folding Pocket on behalf of Andrew Cotter, Eddie Pepperall and special guest Ian Carter.

0:24.4

Yeah. Andrew Cotter, Eddie Pepperall and special guest Ian Carter. Yeah, welcome to the chipping forecast. I'm Andrew Cotter with special guest Ian Carter,

0:28.3

Super Army soldier Eddie Peppel. We are recording this at 8.30 on Tuesday morning, people.

0:35.3

And we're all hammered because, you know, that's good fun. Yeah. Stop that. Stop that music there.

0:43.5

Yeah, so here we are, the Chipping Forecast, and everybody's here. Ian Carter, our special guest, is in a, you're in a studio in London town, aren't you?

0:53.8

I'm in the Chipping Forecast Studio.

1:30.9

I'm a bit annoyed because I came past a couple of bars and they weren't open. And, you know, I mean, it's 8.30 in the morning. So he should be ready for a pint or two, shouldn't it? Well, I'm at Manchester Airport recording this and everybody's just getting stuck in at 7 o'clock because that's what happens. Eddie actually is grinning as if he has had a bottle of wine, but he's still in Middle East time. But you're back. You're back in Albion. How are you, Eddie? Yeah, I'm back. I finally got paid, so I have had a drink. Yeah, as you can see, I've brought my Barry from Bahrain shirt with me. Oh, my word. Eddie, for those who are, well, everybody's really just listening and not watching, but he is wearing you.

1:32.5

So this is the shirt, the, the chipping forecast branded top that Barry from Bahrain wanted

1:39.0

to hand to you and to see your little face light up, but you had just had a poor finish in Bahrain and stormed off

1:47.3

saying, I don't need this shit right now, Barry. You didn't say that. I added that for dramatic

1:53.4

effect. And then he gave it to Jamie, didn't he? So, so. Yeah, it's just, it's just come out of the packet,

1:58.4

Barry, I'm afraid. But it's a lovely shirt and it's the Bahrain branch. So I look forward to being handed another one elsewhere in the season and they can obviously add in their geographical location and we can, you know, start building from there. I've got to say, it looks fantastic, doesn't it? It really looks fantastic. I think we can, well, I mean, I'm only a guest, so I'm not allowed really to get involved in such discussions. But I would have thought that merch is a way to go for the golf podcast of the year, don't you?

2:26.3

No, I think the way to make money is to sue Barry from Bahrain for copyright infringement and our intellectual property. he's taking that logo. He's selling

2:36.3

them around Bahrain to augment his teaching salary. He got in touch Barry from Bahrain. We're getting

2:41.5

other other emails later on, but email from Bahrain, Barry. My name is Barry from Bahrain to

2:47.6

two exclamation marks. Hope he doesn't teach those excess exclamation marks to his students. Yes, I listen to your podcast every week. I find it most informative, but also very amusing. It was great to see Eddie here in Bahrain, even if he didn't have the most successful week. Not to worry about being grumpy after his round. I assure you, I know how he feels. I don't think you do, Barry. I just don't think you do. Anyway,

3:08.3

apologies, grateful, accepted. So there we are. Barry from Bahrain got in touch. Yeah, I actually think the low point of my four-week trip, Anderson, it wasn't entirely bad, but yesterday I was flying home and I was in premium economy, a world traveler plus, you know, you'd like to. Oh, big time falling. time falling but anyway an hour through the flight the captain comes back and oh hello are you Eddie pepper yeah yeah would you like to come up to first class but before he actually invited me up he said are you you well I see you know the few of you on here are you are you still playing or are you commentating oh hang on a minute that's what he said to me and I laughed.

3:42.3

I said, oh, I am still playing.

3:43.5

You might not believe or know it, but I am still playing. But I went up to first class. That was a nice touch. I think his name was Steve. So he might well listen to the chimney. He also wanted to invite Andrew Colthard up, but he was asleep next to me. and he had like an eye patch on in his glasses over his eye patch.

3:39.5

He looked hilarious, so he didn't bother stirring him.
