I didn't realise the first group were out at 10:00. TBH I'd much rather eat at the club, get in that Grand clubhouse and get in the mood early :thup:
Edit- Just remembered....it doesnt have the Grandeur of the Formby Clubhouse,But there's also Tesco on the Duel Carriageway at Formby.

Ok, I'll ask Formby for brekki options then post on here.
Seperately, and after a good question from Fish, here is Formby's policy:-
Handicap Certificate
Visitors are requested to produce a current recognised handicap certificate when registering to play at Formby Golf Club. Maximum handicaps: Gentlemen 28 and Ladies 36. As a guide, visiting golfers playing off higher handicaps are likely to find Formby a very tough golf course.
So, we are all ok upper-limit wise. If as many can bring handicap certs as possible, just in case.

More importantly - has Birchy, Qwerty, GJbike sorted accomodation out?
If my reckoning is right, we may have the following on the beers:-
Birchy, Liverbirdie ,Podgster ,Rob2, GJBike, Fat tiger,Scouser,2Blue,Fish, Qwerty. Possibly podgsters mate.
Still space at mine or podgsters, if you want to save on hotels.

Its looking doubtful for me staying over now 
. Im struggling to get there and back as the missus needs to get to work Monday and isnt keen on trekking to formby and back and then liverpool and back to drop me off etc. Then she has started on with the why do you need to stay over anyway? Its only in Liverpool. She has also reminded me that ive got a grand in fees to pay soon so why am i going blowing a load of money getting bladdered 
She just doesnt get it.
I dont want to push too far either because if she checks the bank of all the golf comings and goings i might not live to tell the tale!
What is happening after the round at Formby on Sunday? Is anybody going for food anywhere etc? I can do that and then drive back afterwards?

Bah, your just saving yourself for Hoylake
I'm not looking for a late night or getting bladdered, especially if its going to be heaving with pished up paddy's everywhere and I don't want to ruin my experience of playing Hoylake the next morning. I'm happy with a few comfortable jars with a meal, maybe something like a Chinese buffet style "all you can eat" jobby or a nice Italian.

Yer big tart.
Get a lift of one of the other Manchester based kidders to Formby, stay in ours/podgsters, have 5-6 pints in Liverpool on Paddy's night,we'll give you a lift to Hoylake, go back with one of the mancs. Simples......unless you are really taking this very seriously........
Don't forget we get soup and sarnies after the game included.
I'm not looking to get bladdered either, meet at about 6.30,home for 10-11 ish.
However i have heard about the legend of fat tiger
He can prowl the streets with Dave (2Blue) then :smirk:
I'll be keeping my partner in check

I don't have a current one!
Do you have an old one, or can you borrow one?
Don't worry too much, if not, as doubt they will enforce it, but worth bringing one, if possible.

My old one will be long gone, could speak to my Dad as he has a handicap and we share the first initial of our first name as well.

Or possibly an online one?

Ive just put this idea to HID and she said its no problem if i can get a lift. That was all too easy negotiating but she said it means i will owe her
I dread to think what that will be! :rofl:I dont think theres anybody coming past my area though is there? Dont wanna put anybody too far off line!
P.S Im taking this deadly serious and if i dont win im taking my bat and ball home!
