My cash for us both sent too....

Can any of the NW gang tell me how bad the M6 traffic from Preston Junction 31A is likely to be heading north to Siloth in the morning? Sat nav says about 2 hours. That's without traffic I assume....

Generally outside of rush hour, north of Preston is fine, so 2 hours should be fine.
 
Was looking forward to a round today to clear the cobwebs since being down Kent, but the course is closed (under water) so its the sofa & remote control for me.

Are any courses in the area looking remotely playable Robin?

Am heading to midlands early doors en route to Carlisle Wednesday and was thinking of a game late lunch....

Should be by then, we’ve had heavy rain all night and all yesterday afternoon and more coming this afternoon.

Even though we are open it’s bouncing down here so it’s defo a cant be bothered Golf day.
 
Captain's Drive-In postponed this morning & course is a swamp with greens gathering moss as the staff unable to get on them..... so .... Driving range again for me I think now I've got my near £400 worth of car problems sorted following the Kent Trip......

1. Broken front spring... £200 (may have been the low TYemps + those severe speed bumps at Cinque Ports... & me not realizing how severe they were going to be)

2. Broken Bonnet release cable £100 ......

3. Replacement wind-screen due to a 'Stone-hit' on return up the A1 £75

Some pretty bad luck there Dave. From what I read though you weren't the only one to suffer damage on that trip.

Got out for 16 holes when the course opened later in the morning. Blew a few cobwebs away, hopefully with no more rain I’ll get out tomorrow.

Lisa currently ironing all my golf and evening clobber ready for next week 😎
 
I have given the catering section the list of food orders today.

If you cant remember what you've ordered don't worry as they know who is having what.

He wasn't so worried about the bacon/ sausage rolls so you can order them on the day.

Food will be in the groups you have played in so it makes life easier for them and then people can get off after eating to the hotels etc.

Its £15 for the meal and they will take card payment.

Great stuff Glyn.... you're doing a grand job :thup:
 
First of all I hope you all enjoy the day. Lack of holidays, clubs still in garage and off skiing on Saturday reason for not participating in this jaunt round my home track.

Can't comment on course conditions at present although it will be fine now the snow and ice has gone.

Fridays forecast is dry but breezy.....so you have got lucky as its normally wet and breezy... Wind is going to from the east which is going to be cool to say the least and the back 9 will be tough. Make your score going out and and then hang on.

Enjoy
