My Bio
Me & Myself
Dale Thompson
Based in the West Midlands, UK, I created Dale Thompson Golfing as a platform where truckers and golfers can come together to share their experiences, stories, or everything else going on in life. Through my website, dtg-dalethompsongolfing.com, I've built a vibrant community of like-minded people who love both trucking and golfing.
My 23 years for Queen & Country
I joined the British Army back in 1989, served a total of 23 years and 288 days before I took redundancy. I completed 2 Operational Tours of Iraq and 1 Tour of NI. I spent 10 years in Germany, 2 years in Canada, 4 years in NI and the rest in the UK. I have been to some on the most beautiful places in the world and some of the most deprived and disgusting places. I was also part of the first ever RLC unit to guard the Queen. I finished my Army career at Nuneaton and settled in the West Midlands in 2012.
EGTF Member
I have been a member of the EGTF (European Golf Teachers Federation) since 2011. I took the EGTF course for my resettlement after leaving the Armed Forces, with the focus on becoming a golf instructor. I have never given a paid lesson to ant student.....yet. I instruct more whilst playing the game and pass on my knowledge to other golfers. I'm proud to say that I've helped a very good friend reduce his handicap from 28 to 18. Still work to be done but the result shows I kind of know what I'm talking about.
My HGV Career
I passed my HGV class 1 whilst serving with the Army, took my test in NI back in 1993. After leaving the Army I applied for a golf teaching job in Bedford, didn't get the position, so I fell back onto the one job I could do, Trucking. I started my career on the agency books, driving for the likes of Waitrose, Stapleford Tyers and UK Mail, eventually landing a permanent position with Norbet Dentressangle, who then became XPO, then changed again to GXO who then lost the contract to DHL, my latest employer.
