@JezzEllwoodGolf Very impressed by your knowledge of Molluscan taxonomy Jezz…..

[Keith Duff @keithduff21]

@JezzEllwoodGolf @GolfClubSec Brilliant! Consorting with a geologist over the years has clearly given you a feel for the finer points of landscape appreciation. Good to see the Bartonian stratotype looking so clear!

[Keith Duff @keithduff21]

@outfossiling @gsjphd This species always occurs like this. They were nektoplanktonic, not benthonic, and seem to have a strong elastic ligament which kept the valves together.

@outfossiling @BigJurassicFish @BdfJjl No problem Darren, keep using me as a sounding board! Have been through my field notes about Calvert, but can find no record of the Leedsichthys. Can’t help with the Lias ichthyosaurs cast I’m afraid.

[Keith Duff @keithduff21]

@pborogeopaleo @MrIchthyosaurus Agree Darren, almost certainly a microconch Kosmoceras obductum

[Keith Duff @keithduff21]

@JezzEllwoodGolf @lofotenlinks I also rather like the 2nd at Keilir Golf Club near Reykjavik! The lava roughs focus the mind wonderfully!

[Keith Duff @keithduff21]

@EdwinRoald Pity you couldn't have arranged this for when EIGCA was in Iceland a few weeks ago!

[Keith Duff @keithduff21]

@JezzEllwoodGolf @lofotenlinks Brautarholt in Iceland, 1st green and hole, on EIGCA Annual Meeting last month. A little later in the evening than Ben's picture!

@TimPalmerEO @WGCG_UK @outfossiling Hi Tim, good to hear from you, it's been a long time! Correct ID of Darren's bivalve, it's M. braamburiensis. Have you now escaped from Aber?

[Keith Duff @keithduff21]

@outfossiling @FistfulQ Hi Darren, the bivalve is Meleagrinella braamburiensis

[EIGCA ⛳️ @EIGCA]

EIGCA President, Tim Lobb @LOBBandPARTNERS, Chair of EIGCA Sustainability Committee @gjrdubbya, and EIGCA Sustainability Consultant, Keith Duff, met with Arlette Anderson, Director, Sustainable Golf @RandA to discuss #sustainable #GolfCourseDesign opportunities.

[Keith Duff @keithduff21]

@outfossiling @WGCG_UK @RSuthren @pborogeopaleo @Flag_Fen @uniofleicester @PauldelaSalle Thanks guys, always happy to help with Oxford Clay matters! Familiar with lots more than bivalves too!

[Keith Duff @keithduff21]

@holidayextras many thanks for getting back to me, and fixing my problem.

[Keith Duff @keithduff21]

What makes a great course?

A good course should not be defined by;
-The speed of it’s greens
- How difficult it plays
- How it’s well presented
- The length of the rough

A great course sits in harmony with nature!

Please watch. Follow these ideas & save your club a fortune.
