Apologies for starting yet another "Forest Pines" thread....

[USER1999]

Yes, Hever open. Also Old Thorns. You have history pal.

Good news is, I'm back in the UK.

Bad news is, I'm knackered, and have lost any feeling in three fingers of my right hand.

I have sorted out the rooming arrangements as best as I can, and these are set out below.
I will be arriving at the Hotel sometime around 11.00am tomorrow and it would be appreciated if you could come and find me before going to the hotel reception and paying (if you haven't paid already) because it will really confuse things!
If you have any question at all, please get in touch with me asap.
If you need to call me at all my mobile number is 07919 563926..

A few things Roberto.
I think Timberbonce IS taking his wife.

I think you might want to change your teams arrangements as you won't have a team on Sunday.

NEVER, NEVER put a ferret in with a crow &
A Gopher with a cat? c'mon PLEEEEEASE. we don't need 2 start on Sunday

 

[vig]

Right!!!! tee off in around 40 hours...let's get some banter going!!!

Who's playing well?

Who's sh**king it all over the place?

How many are the Golf Monthly team going to win by?

What's the weather forecast? I've seen one report for rain on both days

Can't wait to get up there and soak up the pre-match atmosphere!

Now less than 24hrs
Going to piss it down
Game hot and cold. Last one was cold so next will be hot.
Striking ball well but putting is unpredictable.
We've got 2 start for the singles as there won't be a crow or gopher in the magic ranks. well 3 if you count Smiffy with a shandy hangover

Just use your left one then but don't stop up too late, you're carrying me t'mora

I'm afraid Vig's right Smiffy.
I just found this on the other thread from about 3 weeks ago. Is it easy enough to get an extra double if you've only got 2?

My other half is coming and she is a non golfer.

Bugger!! I'd forgotten about that too!!
So as far as I can make out, three guys are bringing non golfing partners yeah?

Timberbonce
Region3
CenturyG5

As I say, it's not a problem I can upgrade the rooms from to doubles for you but with all the chopping and changing (not by yourselves I hasten to add) I have got a bit confused.
Please could you confirm that the above is the case and I will get on to Forest Pines later today/tomorrow.

No Timberbonce is now no longer bringing his partner. He emailed me a week or so ago to say she couldn't make it.
Hence the confusion.
Don't worry. THe final listing is correct

 

[USER1999]

More bad news. Just got home, and am getting eaten alive. Cat has fleas. It just gets worse.

Vig, you've got about 17 hours to get your putter hot. I suggest putting at a mug down the hall way. Just get Smiffy to stand there.

 

[Region3]

Apologies Smiffy, I knew you'd have it under control really

You've done such a great job with this (apart from the weather forecast!) that it almost seems a shame for you to be on the losing side.

How many hours sitting next to you in a car?

Dont worry I have my eye of the tiger + top gun soundtrack reaady to psych ourselves up for the match.

 

[USER1999]

Don't worry, cat fleas don't live on humans. Any way, I have sprayed the house, dosed the cat, and all will be well. Apparently he brought a squirrel in yesterday. That would do it.

Top gun sound track is a great album. Can you kneel in the road and flag me off? All we need is a bit of dry ice.

 

[Smiffy]

Don't worry, cat fleas don't live on humans.

That's OK for the other 24 of us, but what about you???

 

[HomerJSimpson]

I'm not sure what this is a euphonism for but it a sounds a bit iffy

 

[HTL]

So who is maverick and who is goose? I reckon that will put us two matches up if we roll out onto the first tee in head to toe Top Gun outfits.

You have gone and got Homer all upset now! Dont worry Homer im still your doubles partner.

 

[USER1999]

Sadly, you need to accept that Goose is dead, and move on. I'm Ice man.

 

[rickg]

Hope all the GM team are now tucked up in bed watching the PGA tour golf (except don't take any notice of Vijay's putting.....car crash tv!!!)

Tomorrow we're going to teach those Golf Magic boys how to play golf!!!!

 

[Timberbonce]

Erm no I didn't smiffy. I have said all along she is coming and I even asked you the other day to give me details so I could book her spa treaments If you recall. I'm going to text you now cos you got me shitting my self now. I dare not tell her.

 

[Timberbonce]

FFS! I think hes gone to bed.... what do i do now??

 

[Smiffy]

FFS! I think hes gone to bed.... what do i do now??

Don't worry.
It will be OK.
See ya there at 11.00.
I'm sorry for the confusion but two guys wives pulled out of coming fairly late and I cocked the numbers up. But it'll sort itself out I'll phone the hotel on the way up this morning. They've got plenty of rooms so it's just a case of switching one about.
Once again, sorry about the confusion
Rob

 

[USER1999]

I got up at 5, how sad is that? Jet lag probably doesn't help. Only another two hours and I can leave. Car all packed. Was thinking about going out and washing it. Got zip all else to do. The alternative is tro hit the practice ground down my club.
