BTW Rob, when is the next meeting at East Brighton?
I'll give it another few weeks before I organise another one, give it chance for the temperatures to start climbing a bit.
Down in the dip, from 5 thru 9, it was gorgeous. You lost the wind and it was surprisingly warm in the sunshine. But once you got back up on higher ground from the halfway hut to the finish, it was bloody fresh! I could hardly feel my hands coming down the 18th and was glad to get back into the warmth of the clubhouse by then.
I'd love to organise a late afternoon game down there in the height of Summer. You know, tee off around 4.00pm and play the course on a nice evening. The wind should die off later in the day and with all the humps and hollows on the fairways and the setting sun, it would look superb.
Follow it up with a BBQ. That would be nice.
Will definitely be organising another one though.
PS. Just a thought. It's the longest day on June 21st. Sadly this is a Tuesday so I'm buggered for the day off, but we could play the following day (22nd) to celebrate the Summer Solstice. We could all chip in a fiver and play for the Solstice Cup, to be held annually?

Sounds good Rob, but i hope there are no strange rituals involved. Don't want to see you stripping off and dancing around the flag poles.
