Beau Desert April 14th 2014

[Fish]

I spoke to the weather gods and stuck it right to them after reading reports earlier in the month that we were all to be showered upon, this wasn't acceptable to me so we now have a 50% cloudy start leading to glorious sunshine.

I trust you will all raise a glass and thank the weather gods for their support :cheers:

I live about 2 mile from Beau... And can confirm that the weather is currently gorgeous and will be similar conditions tomorrow.

Don't under estimate that sun though.... There is a slight wind chill.

The prizes are packed and ready for tomorrow







Not only do we have 1st, 2nd & 3rd along with Nearest the Pin & Longest Drive, I will have my traditional Wooden Spoon and also some Spot Prizes from stories, dress codes and anything else weird & wonderful I hear about from the days activities :smirk:

See you all tomorrow :thup:

Well done Robin, the organisation of an ex-squaddie is clear to see.:thup:

See you tomorrow.

39 points with a blob yesterday. That's me until Beau Desert. Hope the sunshine lasts.

I am going straight there wrighty , picking up Midnight at Winchester then driving up to Beau Desert , see you ,Robin and the rest there , should be a good crack .................................EYG

 

[tyke]

Robin, you have a PM.

 

[Fish]

**Urgent**

I have a very late withdrawal which is extremely unfortunate but fully understandable.

With all the payments being made, food ordered and confirmed numbers, I am not 100% sure whether I would get a refund for him, so I am offering up the days golf as described fully in earlier posts for £50, a saving of £20. This is then going to be donated to the Help for Heroes Fund as suggested by Tyke :clap:

Please get back to me ASAP, hopefully many of you are awake watching the Masters.

Good luck today everybody, have a great day :whoo:

 

[PIng]

Thanks for organising this Robin, I really enjoyed the day - great course, perfect weather, shame about the golf! Thanks to Mark, Steven and Peter for the company and for being patient with me on the back nine.

Hope to see you all again soon.

 

[sweatysock41]

I can only echo what Ping has said great weather, great course, great - well 2 out of 3 as they say.

Many thanks to JCW, Paperboy who would have given Rick G a run for his money in the fashion stakes with that cardigan, and Glynn for their company. Hope you had a safe trip home guys.

Sorry I had to shoot off before the meal Robin, I said it would be a false alarm and it was, she's back home but it won't be long before I get called Grandad and it's a fact. Thanks for a great day.

 

[upsidedown]

An absolute cracking day right from arrival to departure some 8 hours later.

Superbly organised by Fish and very well looked after by the club, excellent course and great grub ( who had 4th's of pudding ? )

Great to meet you all and many thanks to playing partners Bluewolf and Midnight, so many laughs all the way round, fantastic company.
Will let Fish dish up the scores.

Qwerty, you missed a cracker. the course was in cracking nick and the greens were lightening quick with 3&4 putts everywhere!!

Fishy, thanks for organising the day it was great, a real gem of a track. Thanks to Wrighty and Metal Mickie for putting up with me for 18 holes 2 cracking fella's.

It was good to meet some new faces aswell.

Looking forward to the next one.
