Golf<title> </head> <body bgcolor="#00FFFF">   <p align="center"><font size="4">Golf or Flog as it should be known for us hackers</font></p> <p align="left"><font size="3">The less impecunious Chinese (includes the "middle classes") are unable to afford to play golf as the cost (for them) is just too high and they have better things on which to spend their income. The courses on Hainan are underused and an average of 50 golfers on a weekend is the norm for the 4 courses around Haikou. Weekdays some courses are lucky to break into double figures. </font>All the courses are very long off the white tees averaging over 6,500 yards which makes for some horrendous scores, especially Eric! There are no yellow tees for men and it just wouldn't do to play off the ladies which average 5,900yds. Just one reason why Eric has yet to break 100 and the fact that he takes after Jean Van de Velde and just manages to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory (breaking 100 that is). He'll get there befores he leaves China.</p> <hr> <p align="center"><img border="0" src="golf01.jpg" width="256" height="308"> <img border="0" src="golf02.jpg" width="258" height="325"></p> <p align="center">Dutch SliceMeister Eric, all 6ft. 5ins of him </p> <p><img border="0" src="me10a.jpg" width="400" height="260"> <img border="0" src="me11a.jpg" width="400" height="255"></p> <p align="center">Gulf Harbour and Formosa Golf Courses in New Zealand</p> <p align="center"><img border="0" src="golf05a.jpg" width="400" height="300"> <img border="0" src="golf07a.jpg" width="400" height="300"></p> <p align="center">The 10th and 9th tees at Dong San Golf Course, Haikou, China</p> <hr> <p align="center">Alright, this has nothing to do with golf but I wanted people to see what we're up to.</p> <p align="center"><img border="0" src="me3a.jpg" width="400" height="295"></p> <p align="center">Model tractor/trailer rig with company logo</p> <p align="center">If you want to read more about Hainan Refrigerated Transport go to the <a href="http://www.hrtco.51.net">hrtco.51.net</a> (You will have to type the URL, no www infront) </p> <p align="left"><a href="geopage01.html"><font size="3"><strong>Home</strong></font></a></p> </body> </html> </object></layer></div></span></style></noscript></table></script></applet><script language="JavaScript" src="http://us.i1.yimg.com/us.yimg.com/i/mc/mc.js"></script><script language="JavaScript" src="http://us.js2.yimg.com/us.js.yimg.com/lib/smb/js/hosting/cp/js_source/geov2_001.js"></script><script language="javascript">geovisit();</script><noscript><img src="http://visit.geocities.yahoo.com/visit.gif?us1240812632" alt="setstats" border="0" width="1" height="1"></noscript> <IMG SRC="http://geo.yahoo.com/serv?s=76001088&t=1240812632&f=us-w2" ALT=1 WIDTH=1 HEIGHT=1>
