Thanks very much Rick.

It is. It's just with The Addington, Walton Heath and the Scotland trip on the horizon it had been put on the back burner.
I will try to get my head around it and start organising again sometime during the coming week.
Sorry for lack of comms

 

[Smiffy]

This event is still taking place over the two days of 29th/30th May if anyone else is still interested in playing. I will update the deposits received list once I can sit down and get my head around it!
Should be a fun week-end.
Rob

 

[Smiffy]

Is anybody else still interested in this????

At the moment I have only received about 10 or 11 deposits and interest seems to have died off.
I must contact Forest Pines within the next week or so to confirm final numbers.
Could you please let me know if you are still interested or not??????
Thanks

 

[Timberbonce]

I must admit I would be rather upset if it were to get cancelled now as I have booked time off work, so has the wife we have just recently turned down a holiday away with friends that week, and my in-laws who are having my kids for the weekend have re-arranged the completion date of there house move to accommodate it.

So yes I am still interested.

If it is in doubt can we please sort it as soon as possible I think partners that were planing on attending might want to book some of the hotel facilities and the like..

 

[grumpyjock]

Im still in for it.

Rob

I'll sort out my side up in Scotland.

I think my lad will make one in. I may treat him for his birthday.

 

[rickg]

I'm still in.

There is no question of it being cancelled. I just wanted to find out who was still interested and who wasn't.
If you look at the original thread and the numbers of people who said "yes" and compare it with the number of deposits I have received, you can see why Im a little disappointed.
But the week-end will still be going ahead

 

[Timberbonce]

Ok m8. nice one. Sorry if i came across a little short earlier but i was only in the office for a couple of minutes and didn't have long to reply, so bit of a rush job.

Errrr I'm in trouble here lads.
This is a copy of an email I received from Forest Pines this morning after I notified them of the reduction in numbers from the original number booked....


"Hi Robert,

Thank you for your e-mail regarding the reduction in numbers. Unfortunately this does mean you will incur cancellation charges, we can cancel 10% without charge which takes it down to 38 people. You than have 24 arriving which leaves 14 which will be a 75% cancellation charge. This equates to 14 people @ £96.75 per person.
Any queries please let me know.
Thanks

Karen"

That leaves me having to find £1,354.50 out of my own pocket unless I can come up with 38 golfers in total.
Fecking hell

C'mon guy's.
rob has done aa lot of spade work on this and booked places according to interest at the time.

He has been left right in the shite by folk dropping out who gave a resounding "count me in" at the time.
This has been made worse by the lack of commitment by others involved in organising.

If you are already going, do you have a golfing partner that would tag along.

If you are relatively new to the site, get your name down.
It looks a superb facility and if you've not attended one of these before, nows the opportunity and you will be welcomed by all.

 

[brendy]

Bloody ell fella.
I know you get the odd dropout but thats taking the proverbial.
Its a pity my one pass out for golf for the year has been stretched for the whole weekend for Castle Stuart as the course looks pretty damn good. Thinking of ways to bolster numbers, are any staff noted as going yet from either forum?

 

[uklongdriveseries]

Hi

I dont post much on here as keep forgetting password!

I would suggest you advertise the spots on

GUMTREE.COM
AND EBAY

I am sure you wil be able to get interest / cash from those sites.

I will update with more information when I get back.
Many thanks for your PM's and posts of support.
It would be great if I could get to the magic number of 24 players.
