Nice photos. I nobbled my drive off the first at Crail years ago in the cabbage behind the ladies tee...lipped out for par though! Love to go back to St Andrews soon.

Not the easiest of opening shots is it 😃 managed to find the beach on one of the holes. Yeah love St. Andrews 2nd time I've played the old course and it never loses that magic, special place...even in the rain

Yes Steve, he looked after us again, he's a top bloke, sorted us out on the old course Friday and the new course Saturday and got his mate Kenny to get us on crail on Sunday, spent most the weekend sat in the old course clubhouse having a beer, the view out the window never gets boring does it, brilliant weekend, your name came up a few times, shame we couldn't meet up...maybe next time,

Pleasure to watch Euan knock it round the old course, ask him about the 18 th ( that's all I'll say ) your spoilt up there mate, brilliant place, I've heard scotscraig's a must play, hopefully next time, cheers mate

I'll ask him later, we are lucky to be honest and we still complain . We're lucky in away that we can golf all year with the courses still in good knick and pay half what most clubs in England charge

My mate was gutted when Euan told him how much his membership is I'm looking at retirement homes up there,

Its some deal when you stay in St Andrews,played with some Americans and they couldn't believe golf is that cheap up here

Think that Kenny said was a member of crail and St. Andrews, still works out cheaper than being a member of one course down here, Euan said the St. Andrews members nearly rioted when they put the membership up by £20, shocking

Played Craighead yesterday and it was in smashing nick.

Our Caddie - Stevie knows him from his club - was good craic on the way around too and me managed a T7th placing which after 3 days solid on the batter with the Tartan Army was a fair result!:lol:
