Cooden....Friday 16th August. Final details......

[heronsghyll]

If things stay as they are for the day, and everybody puts a fiver in the "prize fund" we'll have £120.00.
Might I suggest £45.00 for the winning team and then the following for the individual stableford.

3rd place...£15.00
2nd place...£25.00
1st place £35.00

Rob,

Be assured Robin, Guy and I will happilly contribute to the Prize fund, we will each have £80 cash on the day for you first thing.

I notice we are numbered 4,5,6 in the list - if that means we are off as the second 3 x ball - no problem we don't have far to come so we will be there in plenty of time. (also if off later not a problem, whatever you decide is fine for us).

Lookng forward to it as always,

Dave

Haven't sorted out groupings yet Dave....but am aware that some people are more "local" than others. I will try to sort the start times out over the week-end and post on here by Sunday evening.

Yes, rather than travel that distance and stay down their on my own which I've done quite a bit up & down the country this year, I'm bringing the wife and Max (dog) down. Staying in Hastings 7 days from Monday so we'll explore the coast between Eastbourne & Rye.

I may have to share a wee orange and an in-depth discussion on knitting patterns ... not forgetting its your birthday

 

[CMAC]

I had a look at the greens twice this week (would have loved to have played but leaving before Friday) they look true and firm but not short and fast, maybe the green keepers ensuring they don't burn due to the good weather. Hope you all have a great game, über jealous.

Look forward to seeing you.

You're there Dhan. Off at 10.16...... Roger said you wouldn't mind playing with other people for a change so have put you with Chris (Murphthemog) and PN Wokingham (Paul). Two nicer guys you couldn't wish to meet. And I understand your ball spotting abilities are top notch, hence putting you with Paul.
Be good to see you again.

 

[Smiffy]

For your delight and entertainment, there is also going to be a spot prize for the most disgusting outfit ever worn around Cooden GC.

 

[Leftie]

You've already won it Smiffy with that jumper a couple of years ago. :ears:

 

[PNWokingham]

glad you are playing there rather than up the road in the Surrey Tour event then! Shame to have missed this one this year - and the organiser looks to have done a truly excellent job so far; just the weather to sort out now

 

[Fish]

The weathers been really hot all week, can't believe its going to be wet tomorrow, especially as its so hot tonight still. Can't see it changing that dramatically so fingers crossed.

 

[chrisd]

I played with Jimboo at Canterbury yesterday - treat his handicap with a whiff of scepticism!

 

[full_throttle]

Wishing everyone a safe and hassle free journey,

See you at breakfast
