GM Ryder Cup Scotland v England 2011

[madandra]

Gents, the big event is almost upon us and I have been juggling my noo job and lots of other wee issues to try and make the 2 dayer. However I have to admit defeat due to working in Engerlund from Tuesday to Friday but could if needed make it down to Berwick before the natives awake on Saturday morning. It has been a manic few months and I apologise to those who have PM'd me and sent messages asking if I could make it but I was trying all I could to make it but I am off to Austria wit work the week after next and need to attend meetings next week. So to all the lads going, enjoy the course, the banter and I highly recommend the nasal mango chutney and even enjoy the wonderful nightlife you get in Berwick.

Och Andy, does that mean we're not going to see you on the tee resplendent in your fancy new stihl jacket

Glad to hear things are going well at the new job though. Hope you are enjoying it.

PS what was the story behind the four poster bed....

Looked like the honeymoon suite if you ask me

First look at the weather forecast for Fri & Sat looks to be mostly dry, but, there may be rather a strong breeze both days

that should suit my natural high game, as long as its dry I'm a happy bunny

Uh-oh seems a tad blowy!!!!

I have foolishly agreed to succeed DCB and Dodger and organise this year's event at Goswick. Scotland won in 2009, England won in 2010.

Provisional dates are Friday 7th and Saturday 8th October 2011. I'll speak to the club next week to try to arrange these dates but at this stage they are subject to change.

Please post on this thread if you want to play. Numbers will be limited to 12 a side or possibly 16 a side if the club can accommodate us.

Preference will be given to those forum members who have attended either or both of the previous matches, namely

Scotland
DCB

So that rules out newer forum members. Sounds none PC to me!!!!!!

There were still spaces very recently on both sides of the border.

I certainly don't see a problem in giving first shout to the guys who supported this on previous ocassions. The thread has been live for months so you could have thrown your hat into the ring long since.

 

[DCB]

Posted twice for some reason oops

 

[DaveM]

I would have done. But the friday is a nono for me. But that is not the point

So what is your point? You have joined in June at least 4 months before this happened so could have quite easily been part of it.

Quite right Chris, this has been on the arrange a game section for months and the England team were short up to a couple of weeks ago. If you are interested put your name in simples!

I booked a room whe stopping over in Glenrothes and they gave me the bridal suite. £65 and there was a hot tub.

Why would you ever need a bridal suite in bloody Glenrothes??!!

 

[Iaing]

If it was Glenrothes then that wasn't a hot tub in the bridal suite.

It was a birthing pool.

See thread "One man down for Scotland team at Goswick"

 

[Screwback]

Booked a tee time for 2.30 but it does not seem busy so if we are there earier and want off it should not be an issue.

 

[USER1999]

I am going to warm up playing bamburgh, hope it is not as windy as today. Stupid amount of wind today.

Nice views out over the sea and to Lindisfarne
