No that’s fine. Just don’t go into a public space.

Glad I've got my home made net.
Eagerly awaiting my club email, they’ve just cancelled guests, but not closed as of yet.
Announcement vague, golf is exercise and I’ve always happy practising on my own.....

I suspect every golf club manager, secretary, board, owner etc etc are drafting an email to their members or are fishing out one they drafted a few days ago.
I think any course that stays open from tomorrow is missing the point
Is it essential for greenkeepers to go to work...No.

Going to be quiet on the roads tomorrow, especially when I leave at 5am to start a 350 mile round trip ??

BBC news following Boris's broadcast ( excellently done, btw) had a reporter outside number 10!
Why is that necessary for her to be outside No.10?
Not good, beeb, not good.

Never understood how they were on the essential workers list.

Being self employed in construction who decides if its essential i go to work , me from a point of needing to keep an income , or the police deciding if a contract needs to be finished or not ?
Question answered , company has decided to cease all works until instructed that any works are deemed essential by clients
totally the right response in my view ,

Ive still got to work, the course is a 5/10 min diversion. If going prior to work or after in the morning. I don’t see it as an issue. Of course if the course closes then that’ll clear it up.
that is a very good point.

You think it's essential that's fine, your call, who am I to judge.

Golf courses are not essential to keeping the country running
It will be difficult to justify greenkeepers going to work, much easier to just staying at home.
We just need to sit it out for a few weeks.

Probably need to keep a degree of maintenance work.

A couple of ours live on the course. Working from home??

Ideally but the authorities could easily turn round and say "let it grow, cut it when this is over"
They then have to work for a week to get the course playable before we restart...
This is a very simple decision to make...
I’ve just contacted all the company owners I collect & deliver for, mainly manufacturers, and they are all staying open, what’s the difference between them working and greenkeepers?
