If there is still spaces I would be up for joining the English team, and I live fairly locally so would probably be able to press gang a mate or 2 if you were short

Mon' then boys. Fill them spaces.
I've picked my team sheet for day 1 already. Slightly different tactics from last year when our low handicappers "took a helluva beating"

I would say 15 is a bout right at the moment. Shot this at Heswall last week. I have a few games lined up before then so I will keep a card and hole everything. If I shoot lower, I'll lower myself. If I shoot higher....erm... I'll stay the same 
Or to make it interesting, we could draw it out of a hat?

That's great; a £10 deposit via PayPal to rdpsoftware@ntlworld.com secures you a place on the team. If you can rustle up some mates at short notice that might be very handy as we want to get two full teams of 16 in place as soon as we can. The balance of £35 for the golf is payable on the day.
J_F: do you know if Madandra is playing this year? He's the only unconfirmed jock. I've tried to PM him but to no avail.
Brilliant John!!

Just sent him a FB message, Andy. Think his new job is taking him about a bit at the mo' but I'm sure he won't miss it if he can avoid it.

Give TonyN a handicap of 6 at most, Andy!!!
He sent me a message on Facebook the other week.... and quote
"My handicap will be a lot higher this year although my last officail was 15 it should probably be a bit higher than that. Cos playing against skirt wearing blokes that we can't understand is a big distraction and warrants at least a further 6 shots adding to my h/cap. One per IQ point of our oppo's
There, fixed it for you John.
About time the banter started.

Tony just gets distracted cos' for once he doesn't need his riot gear. He'll be safe in the fine, upstanding company of gentleman Scottish golfers.

Plenty of Scottish golfers whether any of them are gentlemen or upstanding is debatable

Wheyayeman has deposited £10 and is now confirmed. We have 15 scots, 14 english.
I'll do a proper info sheet nearer the time but here's the format:
Friday:
Better ball matchplay with 3/4 H'cp diff being taken from the lowest man in the 4. 2 points will be awarded for a win and 1 for a halved match.
Saturday:
Better ball Stableford with 3/4 of Handicap allowance, so if Team A get a better ball stableford total of 42 points against Team B's 41 points better ball then Team A would take the 2 points for the win in that match. Again 2 points for a win and 1 for a halved match
Overall winner is team with most points over both days. If we get 16 a side, there will be 16 points available on both days, 32 points total. So England need 16 points to retain the cup (having won in 2010), either side need 16.5 or more to win outright.

By the end of the Friday night beers being upstanding could be an issue for more than a few, certainly was for me last year.

I am assuming that Viscount will be bringing the Stilton again for a prize. I can add a bottle of port to go with that.
