Best golfing memory?
The first time I played a top course. It was Canne Mougin in France. I was 45 and had only been playing golf a few years after packing up football. I think it's on a par with Sunningdale.

Favourite course in Essex other than our own?
Thorndon Park. I don't think the greens are as good as they used to be, but I like the layout and always enjoy playing there.

Favourite course in the UK?
Sunningdale. It's just fabulous. Much better than Wentworth, which I think is over-rated.

Best golfing tip?
Don't sway. When I was struggling to play the problem was always too much lateral movement. I have to keep a check on it.
What would you change about the game?
I think it needs to be cheaper and accessable. A lot of people can't afford to play. I know time is a factor for many, but I think getting the price down is important to attracting more people into the game.
I've served on the committee at Romford so I know the problems clubs are facing with costs. It's not cheap to run a golf course. Perhaps there needs to be more investment in the game from Government.
