Drive home safely.

At least i dont have to pay to get out of Wales!!!!

What a cockup going through the toll on the way there!!.........lots of queues at the manned booths so I went to the cash in the basket only aisle........pulled out my fiver and pound coin...then realised in horror that it said ...no notes!!.......time for a quick reverse......wrong.....6 foot 25 stone bloke in a beat up van behind me........ panic!!..........I'm desperately rifling through my coin tray, my pockets, down the side of the seats....throwing it all into the basket......its counting down how much is left.....got to 85p then ran out of money.....could see the guy behind me getting more wound up.....I knew I had a couple of quid in the golf bag in the boot, but there was no way i was getting out with the Honey Monstor fuming behind me........one last desperate fumble in the coin tray....there was a pound coin right at the back...........I've never been more relieved......threw it in...barrier goes up and I floored it.......wont be doing that again in a hurrry...

Glad you had a good time, its on my list of courses to play. Was hoping to play it this winter with the good deals they have but my regular playing partners are a boring bunch and could be arsed

Glad you had a good day Rick, I enjoyed my day down there and I'm hoping to play it again sometime this year. There's a deal on at the moment where you can play it from £56 during January and February so I may be tempted to pop down there again.

The fish and chips are pretty good though aren't they .

me and a bloke at work are on about going there in the Summer and doing 36 holes with overnight stay. Glad you had a good day Rick & to start with a birdie is even better

Will do mate. Will still sort out that round on the Roman Road & Montgomerie, it's really wet at the moment so I'll wait until it dries out a bit before we go out.

Fine with me! Weekends are preferable if possible as I appear to have used up all my holiday until April! Then I'm already down to 9 days left in the next holiday year! Oops!
