When it comes to activities, golf is a pretty new one to me. I already talked about my dodge ankle and that's kept me away from running for a while.

So to keep me ticking over I've started playing golf. I've previously had a love hate relationship with the driving range and kind of enjoyed it but found it generally a bit boring.

I decided to take a lesson and my lovely instructor took me out onto the par 3, 9 hole course. There was definitely a variety of successes and on the 5th hole I lost 4 balls!

After I'd been around it once, I was absolutely hooked. It is such a different experience being out on the course than stuck on the driving range. I'm really lucky to get to play golf courses at Gleneagles Hotel for free, and I'm pretty sure it's some of the best views in the world.

As you can see from my pictures there were definitely some clouds gathering but if was still beautiful and I managed to get round before the rain. Will I keep it up? My inner 60 year old says YES!
