Irish drivers are fond of acknowledging road courtesies by signalling with one finger -- which we are calling "the digit." (Note to Weez: just like Uncle Herb in Bermuda!) We like getting the digit.
A good score resulting from a nice save on a hole is called a "handy hole."
Failing to score a Stableford point on a hole: "a ding."
Tidy Towns in Ireland are very clean indeed.
We have yet to be served by an Irish waiter or waitress in Ireland, all restaurant employees being of Eastern European descent.
Food has been excellent -- Vegetarian Chuck very pleased.
Stableford competitions are the order of the day here, rarely medal play, and occasionally match play.
So far, Irish golfers of every handicap level appear to be superb putters.
