Produktbeschreibung

Carlington Park G.C. is a series of daft comic sketches and stories about the ground-staff set on a newly opened golf course in north Manchester. One of the assistant green-keepers, Adrian 'Chaddy' Chadwick is the main character in most of the stories. He has daft theories about most things in his life and, in his own mind, he regards himself as an undiscovered genius. His workmates tolerate his craziness because he means well most of the time and he genuinely feels he can help people cope with their working-life. Monty is the Head Green-keeper but he is mostly a quiet and benign presence who only intervenes when something goes badly wrong. Joe is the senior assistant green-keeper who tries to keep his staff out of trouble. He is one of the most penalized amateur rugby league players ever. He loves pies. They are his only reason to live. Glenn is a friendly assistant green-keeper who gets involved with most of Chaddy's daft schemes. Bobby is the new assistant green-keeper who is fresh out of school. He is only sixteen so he also gets roped into the general shenanigans caused by Chaddy and his sometimes surreal advice and activities.
