The next day saw a change of pace when I finally fitted into Mr MDS's lifestyle. Incredibly he invited me along with him and petit garcon to the PGA championship golf at Wentworth. I was so shocked to be included I said yes! In the past I've either been working or out socialising doing things I like to do. I ignored my slight hangover and wondered what an earth to wear to golf. I decided to channel an off duty Ms Wintour. Handily one of my best friends had given me an exclusive Ryder Cup tank as she was a very important person in the event held at Celtic Manor.

Wentworth is beautiful and of course one could argue that golf is a good walk ruined (a fav quip) but for once I chilled and followed Mr MDS who knew everything. There I was in an alien environment and it wasn't much different from being at a festival, more orderly and lest wasted peeps granted but it has it's appeal and place. I managed to snap a couple of the golfing world superstars but I couldn't be bothered to snap Ian Poulter (he was walking too fast) and as Luke Donald was playing an important shot, it would have been bad form (apparently). I can't say I would be rushing out to such an event again but it was nice to spend time with Mr MDS and the petit garcon .

Hi there!! Sounds like a fabulous weekend, how excellent you and le petit garcon could be 'en famille' with Mr MDS, the new you is definitely having fun and very happy-deservedly so too, have a lovely week as well xxx
ReplyDeleteNew adventures are so much fun, and you looked perfect for such an event. Here's to more of these, and many more of the dancing around shoes/bags!
ReplyDeleteThat first paragraph was hilarious!
ReplyDeleteOh I've seen the Mr Whippy, and I want it.
That sounded like a top night out. How fab to dance around designer shoes rather than a Primarni handbag.
ReplyDeleteIt's wonderful that you get to spend family time together, you and the Petit Garcon look gorgeous. xxx
dancing round shoes - excellent sounding night
ReplyDeleteGreat story, great new name and my absolute favourite: tulips. All change is good. Congratulations.
ReplyDeleteWish I could fit into skinny jeans - but love the VW shoes. Golf - mmmn - married a Scotsman who'd been playing since a baby, as they do. He had to give up due to a knee injury but follows the televised tournaments from the sofa now thank goodness.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your kind comments on my blog. I actually think you were very brave re the models. It's hard to stand on principle when no-one is listening and your own livelihood is at stake. But now I'm agog at the prospect of the film script. Another brave move to change careers and be true to your own aspirations. Wishing you the very best as always. Cx
Golf bores the absolute crap out of me. I just don't see the appeal, but you've made it sound strangely attractive in this post. Perhaps it's the ice cream and larking about in the grass...
ReplyDeleteI am a complete golf ignoramus but had to make a golf course cake for my FIL's 70th a week ago. Everybody laughed at me when I referred to the 'water feature' I'd cunningly created - apparently it's a 'water hazard'.
ReplyDeleteOnly women would stop to have a style clinic in the middle of the tipsy dancing! So true, love it!
ReplyDeleteDear Kate, I agree with "A good walk ruined". Your night and the tennis sounds fun though xx
ReplyDeletei love that shoe!!!
