How about this hilarious article: the writer has discovered that “golf” spelled backwards is “flog”, and continues to write the article substituting one for the other at every turn.*
Particularly juicy quotes:
And yes, I flog. I have been doing so for a year and a few months. It was a 50th birthday present to myself. Take up flogging, old girl. How hard could it be?
Just as hard as you like it, madam!
Given a few lessons and a modicum of athletic ability, the flogger is able to flog off the practice tee with pretty good results.
Never underestimate athletic ability in flogging! You can’t afford to get tired after a few whacks, you know.
I’ve been flogged by golfers, and they have a perfect aim and an admirable swing.
Shame the sport is so dull.

* But not, I notice, where it concerns golfing balls. Because “flogging balls” sounds a little iffy for a respectable newspaper.
So funny!
I always associate golf with getting strapped on the the dunes over looking a links course at North Gare.
But even so, I hadn’t considered the golf / flog connection.
Cute, very cute.
Ouch, flogging balls, rather like that scene in Casino Royale, I almost cried and I’m a girl…!
I know of a certain someone who found the idea that a good caning technique is to cross a golf swing with a badminton swing highly amusing. Come to think of it, she was promised a good hard caning for her cheek,and until now I’d completely forgotten about it – so thanks for reminding me!!
What’s cheeky about that Richard? Where’s your sense of humour? You tops will use any excuse….I don’t know…….
I can imagine more than a few girls I know wanting to play ‘flog’ with Tiger Woods. Or Jack Nicklaus, for those whose taste extends to slightly older gentlemen.
Did you ever hear of the Australian girl who had a short fling with Jack? She came home telling of the time she was ‘cheeky’ to Jack. “How dare you speak to me like that. I’m going to put you over my knee.”, he is reported to have said, as he chased her around the house. “Did he catch you?” asked a breathless Michael Willesee (reporter) “Oh yes, it was yummy!”
(That was years ago but surprisingly enough, it caught my attention and I remember it virtually verbatim. LOL)
CORRECTION!! Not Jack Nicklaus. A thousand apologies. When I read Jack I think of JACK – Jack Nicholson.
OMG Rob, you’ll get us sued for libel. Remember, lawyers, it was Rob who wrote it. I believe a spanking is the customary sentence for those found guilty…
JACK won’t be taking legal action. Trust me. I’m sure he just LOVES that story. And if it was good enough for ‘A CURRANT AFFAIR’ to run……..
