If you have a look on the arrange a game section of the forum, you will find quite a few meets already arranged. Not sure if there is anything in your area though.

Does anyone know how many attended the Castle Stuart meet and was this the largest attended forum meet to date, also with the accomadation split up did everyone manage to meet up for a beer in the evenings?

From memory maybe 50? And yes we all met up in Nairn for several beers and a good nights craic with the guys and the GM men.....great fun.

I think somewhere around Liverpool could be a good bet. Not too far for the Scottish Boys, Welsh lot or Irish and within reach for everyone in England.

I can imagine that was a pretty good night out,wish I could of made it at the time.

I'm looking forward to something similar this year. To be honest I'm not too fussed where it is, as long as its a decent track and worth travelling for and most of the guys have a few beers In the evening I'll be more than happy.

Was the Castle Stewart a mega-meet?

The only fair thing to do, if this is based on geography (as well as good courses) is to move it around on a say, 3/4 yearly basis. One year in Scotland and/or Ireland, one year in Northern England, one year in Southern England.

At least for the regulars and long stading forummers , most people may be able to do 2 out of 3, if willing to travel up to 5-6 hours. Seems fair to me.

Links course, preferably Scotland, over 2 days in April or September. Price would depend on venue, but i'll start the ball rolling at about £160 (including an overnight)

I agree. One fifty to two hundred about right

Not re-runs of Crossroads please????

 

[bladeplayer]

If, and only if, it was to be held on the Southport/lancs coast I am sure some of the scousers could help the Irish get to the courses, if they were staying in Liverpool city centre.

I would volunteer, for one, or for anyone else who hadn't come by car.

Cheers man thanks , will see what happens & what the wallet says at the time .. waiting to be told family holiday details still so havent even made a decision on ballyliffin meet yet..

Yes you have, just get the mrs told

Same for me, depending on when this is I could make it but it would need to be around September I think.

 

[rosecott]

I realise that everyone North of the Thames probably sounds the same to the South Coast intelligentsia, but Crossroads was West Midlands.

 

[patricks148]

Southports all well and good, but that's a 7 hour drive for me!
