GM Ryder Cup Scotland V England Match 15 & 16th Oct 2010

A few links for accommodation in Berwick upon Tweed for any of you looking to get booked up already.....all the links are of places that people I know have stayed in over the last 3 or so years and all touch wood have been fine.

All bar the Travelodge are within 2 minutes walk of the Ale Houses we will no doubt be visiting for a sherry or two,the Travelodge is a good 10 minute walk.

If anyone needs any further info PM me and I will see if I can point you in the right direction.
 
I cant wait for another visit to the Indian Curry House .... its not every day you laugh so hard that Mango Chutney comes down your nose but Vig and SS2 had me in stitches.

Lads, get yer name down and come along for a right good couple of days.

Ah yes, the infamous Mango chutney incident. That was caused by us repeatedly asking Fraser (who lost 10 & 8) if he had not even managed to half a single hole.

DCB, you realise that the 15th/16th October is the end of the October week (at least in my neck of the woods) and that might cause problems. ?


Its worth it just for the banter in the curry house. I wonder if they'll remember us!

Cant wait for the return leg, Most anticipated fixture in my GM calander! (along with walton heath of course)

Vig, we doing same as last time?
 
Hi there

Bit of an odd one this, I am English; currently residing in Scotland and have had the pleasure of playing golf with John Findlay and Pete Sinclair in and around Edinburgh. I am as keen as English mustard to join in on this match and would be very happy to join the ranks of the English team to focus on whooping the Scots. If possible could you count me in for both days.


Cheers Nigel 07*********
 
Acker, welcome to the forum m8. I moved your mobile number as it is not required as yet and I dont want someone winding you up. I am sure the boys from the south (aka ... The Defeated) will welcome some fresh blood to their ranks but don't hold yer breath waiting for victory pal. ;)

Too late I've called him.........I've now got a new fitted kitchen, double glazing and a conservatory. :)

John Findlay, golf and pleasure all in the one paragraph!!! How much is he paying you???

I've played 36 holes with him and boy that was way too much! ;)
 
Craw, I was obviously busy trying to carry you for the one round and beat you in the next. Sadly I think I got them mixed up. You know I'm no the brightest. Luckily neither is AckerHurst. I try to mix with the befuddled hence why I like this place so much. I can vouch for him despite the obvious natural disadvantage of birthplace... Sheffield ffs. You'll meet him up north next month and if he sorts his putting out he'll be nearly average.

Re: GM Ryder Cup Scotland V England Match 15 & 16th Oct 2010

been out of action for the last week so just got to this;

sorting out accommodation and juggling days off but one way or another.
 
Re: GM Ryder Cup Scotland V England Match 15 & 16th Oct 2010

The Travelodge is wanting £55 a room without breakfast which is <u>DAILY ROBBERY</u> in my opinion so we will be investigating the smaller B & Bs, especially given the news that they are closer to the pubs and the curry houses*

* Plural, just in case we get thrown out or banned from the first one which, given last year's nonsense, is a distinct possibility
