Now who would take on something like that
You did a great job
that’s kind of you to say. I learned a lot from the process. However, the main takeaway for me was that you can’t please all the people all the time and it’s important to set a date and place and go for it. So many complaints from those who had no intention of taking part. Screw doing that again! Thank god I had so many brilliant regional organisers

I think most people would like something in the midlands, Derby/Notts area, as it’s handy for everyone ??

Can I point out that I didn't ask you to be off scratch Jakob.
I said +4 was the minimum that should be considered.

Well someone did, and now it's up to you to sort it for me! That's how it works.

Well I'll certainly do my best to be an actual scratch by then. Just wait for me to start my own youtube channel so you can follow my progress!

Sorry both, I dont know either. He breached some forum rules and was removed. Probably best not to linger on this subject! Just a shame to see the RickG memorial not continue (despite not knowing Rick)

If I recall correctly, the Kent Coast meet (RSG, RCP for certain, & then Littlestone - or was it Princes) always had a decent turnout - about 40 I think

It started as Littlestone, RCP & RSG but became Princes RCP RSG as there was some unhappiness about the drive from Littlestone to Deal afterwards (and having done the drive it wasn't entirely unreasonable unhappiness) and in fairness to Princes, they have upped their game, or more precisely their course.
The numbers were always a bit variable as we were always happy to allow people to do as many or as few days as they chose.
Maybe we should look at a visit later this year, and perhaps incorporate a trip to The Grove...
Maybe we should do a meet of all the overrated courses in Kent

If someone can sort the micro climate around RCP so it's not 35-45 mph winds, rain and a bit of hail thrown in for good measures it would be great. Ta.
i think it was about 50, but was organised by the mag, there were also other games before and after, Spey Valley, Nairn and Boat of Garten, they were done by Indevs

I haven't been able to stop thinking of Lofoten now since it came up again. Just a very quick breakdown of costs if going around May-June this year would come to about £800 based on 2 nights stay, but I've not included any "extra cash" or food and drinks in that... Just the fixed costs of:
- Accommodation in the Lofoten lodge based on 6-8 people
- 3 rounds of golf with rented clubs
- Flights London-Oslo-Narvik (if taking clubs with it would be roughly £150)
- Rental car + gas based on 4 per car
A 1 course lunch at the local restaurant, excl. drinks or tip comes in at just over £20 and a 2 course dinner at just shy of £35...
Perhaps I can aim to go for my 40th in a few years time instead.
