9.4.16 Dundonald Warmup?

[huds1475]

I know it's a bit early but am planning on driving up to Scotland first thing Saturday 9th so I can get a game in the day before and make the most of being in the area.

Been doing some scouting and can only see the possibility of playing Saturday on the following (according to info available on websites)

Glasgow Gailes @ £40 or £140 / 4 ball

Prestwick - Not cheap but a bucket list course I guess?

Anybody interested in joining? Appreciate might be comp day for most so no worries if not.

Would also appreciate feedback on the above or any alternative suggestions where I'd get a game Saturday?

Thanks for for any advice,

Craig

I'm up for something Craig but would need to confirm nearer the time

 

[patricks148]

would be up for a game depending on travel.

been offered a game at WG at 9am, but not sure i will be able to make that without staying the night before.

will look at nearer the time

 

[huds1475]

Sounds good, thanks for the responses.

Would prefer to play around midday so I can get up there from Manchester. Booked into the Gailes Hotel for Saturday night.

Will revive nearer the time :thup:

how much was the hotel room?

 

[Jimaroid]

Very tempted to join in but I'm pushing my luck with the family commitments for April as it is already. So stick me down as a maybe and I might be able to work up some more credit by then.

 

[huds1475]

how much was the hotel room?

Think it was £90. Not sure what the exchange rate is

 

[patricks148]

Think it was £90. Not sure what the exchange rate is

that's gone up then, last time i stayed it was £50.

 

[huds1475]

I tell a lie, its £89. Might be a 'special' English rate!

Keep working the magic Jim, you know it makes sense

Not sure myself what will be happening on the Saturday myself but I may be able to host a few at my club but again I would also need to clear that nearer the time.

No worries, think the dark nights are affecting me with some sort of golfers version of SAD

I think I get Golfers SAD. I usually go a bit Nuts this time of the year, start drinking a bit more then around Early January I start checking the sunrise/Sunset times on some BBC weather App.

Yep, my name is Dave and I'm addicted to Golf&#128514;.

 

[huds1475]

Didn't want to bring this back up until the main event was sorted. Now it is, seems a good time to do so.

Still planning on driving up early from Manchester Saturday morning.

Is anyone interested in some Links action in the Ayrshire region? Would oke to make the most of being up that way.

Cheers,

Craig

I have a medal on the Saturday so will be playing in that, hopefully. If I can help any other way let me know. I'm sure you should get a game somewhere.

Have you booked somewhere to stay?

OK. Does that mean you're not looking for a game?

 

[patricks148]

not sure at this point, the guys i play with at Western tee off at 9am, that will mean staying 3 nights (already arranged for the the current mrs148 to come and spend sunday in Glasgow with a couple of her friends) so its prob easier coming down on the Sat morning, its a four hour drive for me.
