Sounds like a great day out, I have dropped Neil an email. Here's hoping

The only place I can recommend for club fitting is Urban Golf at South Kensington, Smithfield or Soho. Their club fitting is second to none and the guys that run the place know the equipment inside out.

Anything by Mark Frost should have you captivated whilst everyone else is wasting their time sunbathing

have you got any pics, i might be interested.

Would have to be Mere Golf Club for me, but Dunham Forest is also very nice. Both sandy so quick draining if there has been any rain around. Enjoy wherever you play. Jim

I went to Belek with my wife in May for the first time and enjoyed the weather and golf. We stayed at the Cornelia Diamond hotel which was very nice, loads of pools, spa for the missus and 8 different restaurants to ensure variation, which is sometimes a negative at a lot of the resort type...

Anything by Mark Frost, but I liked 'The Grand Slam' and 'The Greatest Game Ever Played' the best.

Junior, I recently got myself custom fitted for a new driver, 3 wood and hybrid. Each shaft varies in weight, length and kick point. I ended up with a heavy (83g) x-stiff shaft in my driver, but it was slightly shorter than shafts off the shelf. The driver shaft is a Diamana Blue Board and...

Ok, following on from the debate above and the request for someone to come forward with a Powakaddy for sale, I placed an order for a GoKart last night! I was won over by the website, the slightly dark sense of humour and the warranty promise. Will report back when it arrives. Thanks all, Jim

Thanks for the input guys, I have looked at them in detail, but have not seen one in the flesh. They worry me a little as they are a plastic based structure and I don't know how long they will last. Powakaddy have been around for years and they have a great reputation, but I do appreciate that...

Hi all, Just missed out on the Powakaddy Freeway offered earlier last week, so if anyone is thinking of selling up, or has a spare(!) then I would be interested to hear from you. Would be interested in a Freeway or similar Powakaddy trolleys. Thanks in advance, Jim

Its a great links course, one of my favourites. The golf hotel in Silloth is well recommended as well. Enjoy, I am jealous! Happy New Year all. J

Tony, would love to play on new years eve but i have already made plans. Enjoy your game and hopefully i will be able to play with some of you in 2009. Cheers, Jim

andiritchie, I actually got my clubs fitted by a friend at Urban Golf in Smithfield London. It was a fantastic experience and one that i would thoroughly recommend to anyone thinking about having this exercise performed. TonyN, good to hear that there is plenty of activity in the NW region...

Hi, I am from the north west, play at Birchwood GC near Warrington. Handicap is 9 and have recently come back to the game following a lengthy absence. The remainder of the bag is a set of titleist dci 962 irons, cleveland 60 degree wedge and i have just dug out the old wilson tpa xviii putter...
