[thecraw]

Whats the cost again Toad and what does that include?

 

[thecraw]

Also just looked at long range for Friday and it aint looking good at all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Toad]

£30 for bacon roll coffee, round of golf and a meal at the end.
Don't worry about the forcast weather will be fine, worst we can expect is light rain.

 

[madandra]

Will we be doing a sweep and two's ?

 

[happyhacker]

Nice one Madandra, cheers for that. Played 18 holes Saturday and wish I had not bothered. Was like a complete beginner. If thats my form on Friday I may warm up the bar for you guys coming back in¬!

Looking at BBC weather online and its saying heavy rain and 22mph winds for Blairgowrie on Friday.

Will be keeping an eye on that over the next couple of days!

Hi Guys. I hope you all have a good one Friday. I would have joined you but it's about 9 hours driving each way.

I never rely on the BBC weather reports. Check out Metcheck.com. It usually is far more reliable (famous last words!) and you can get up to 7 days in advance but obviously the longer range reports are as a guide.

Thats even worse!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[birdieman]

No frost forecast at least, that would be the main concern to stop play. Rain we can handle....can't we??
Gloves, hats, the works I think!

 

[Marko77]

As Bon Jovi says, "keep the faith"

plus, it never rains on the golf course! As long as the course is open thats the main thing!

You're definitely not from Scotland Marko!

 

[Marko77]

By not thinking about the rain (if it is raining) it's one less thing to think about on the course As long as the equipment remains dry(ish) thats the main thing.

If I learned one thing last summer it was that!

 

[StuartD]

May not have to think about the rain now anyway. It might be snowing

 

[madandra]

Can everybody coming on Friday bring a golf ball with their name on it as I think John_Findlay and Toad should pull the balls from a hat.

 

[John_Findlay]

Good idea, Andy. Forum names of course.

Would be a good way of randomising playing partners.

P.S. I didn't do any of the organising for this, Andy. it's all down to Toad and the Craw's good auspices. I'm just turning up.

 

[madandra]

WWell I guess we have the two Captains then.

Toad Vs thecraw

 

[mass]

Good idea big man

 

[mass]

Looks like it could be a wee bit wet and windy

Nothing to worry about for you brave hearts, after all you are used to it. Us softie southerners are dying to know. Do you tuck your kilts inside your waterproof trousers leaving your ball bag (sorry sporran) outside/inside, waterproof trousers under the kilt, or just wear a waterproof thong to keep the tackle dry?

Sorry in advance AliB. Tooooo much information

 

[thecraw]

Cant take any credit either.

Toad did the spadework, not I.

Balls in the hat or custom fit V's not custom fit!
