Not the first time. First time playing golf.
Sorry, you wore the helmet up there.
That's right. I went to the open. No, I did the camping. And that was West England. I wouldn't call it Northwest England when I was wearing the helmet, riding a horse, which you always should do.

To the audience, though. I get a lot of shit for wearing a helmet while riding a horse.
