In this episode, we talk about why The Addington is unique, how the club came into the ownership of Ron Noades and before him Moira Fabes, and much more of the history at The Addington, including the golden years when it was seen as 'the Sunningdale before Sunningdale.'

252 – Golfing Politicians
With the recent conclusion of the General Election in Britain and a lively debate between Biden & Trump where the nation watched two men well past the age of 70 arguing over who was the better golfer, we decided to look at golfing politicians over time. In stark contrast to the US, where almost all US Presidents play the game, the UK has a much thinner spread. We talk about A.J. Balfour, Lloyd George, Macmillan, Whitelaw, and Churchill, as well as others like Laddie Lucas, Longhurst, and Tolley. We even look at who would be in our political 4-ball and where we would play!
