• We'd like to take this opportunity to wish you a Happy Holidays and a very Merry Christmas from all at Golf Monthly. Thank you for sharing your 2025 with us!

Forum meets 2021

Now who would take on something like that :)

You did a great job (y)

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 ??
 
Id be open to playing anywhere, Worcester based so quite central!

The RickG memorial round is no longer happening as Fish has left us... That was held in August this year! Could be a nice summer trip to arrange?

What?
Have I missed something?
 
Who mentioned Lofoten ;):D

And I have had 126 emails asking you to be scratch for the next sunningdale meet :ROFLMAO:

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

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

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! :cool:
 
yeah what happened there? PM me if barred from discussion

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... :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:
 
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. :(
