H4H Auction Items

[Dando]

Everyone within six holes feels like they are playing with you.

Don’t you mean 6 miles? ?

Don’t you mean 6 miles? ?

I wouldn't be that rude.

@richart along with my hosting offer I have managed to get a 4Ball for Libbaton GC which could go for a token amount for any forum members that might be playing Saunton or RND next year.

Happy to donate a 3 ball at Leighton Buzzard playing with me. Stick a reserve of £75, if the bids don't exceed it, I'll cry off and get LiverpoolPhil in as a sub, although not sure which is the better option????

Hi @richart,

Put me down for a donation of hosting a 3 ball on the… ahem… “inland links”, at The Caversham (Reading Golf Club). A chance for anyone who’s played Caversham Heath previously to see all the changes (new first, couple of new greens,re-routing, complete rebunkering)

Cheers,
Cake.

Can someone who has played there recently still bid.

Caversham links is a lovely course. Definitely one of the best in Berkshire.

Only played it when it was Caversham Heath, but I was really impressed. Great range of holes, and a very helpful sprinkler head!

Ditto for WGCGC

I will host a 3 ball at Welwyn Garden City, it can be any day apart from a Sunday morning.

I was thinking of bidding 75 to play with Smiffy at Highwoods, but sod it I will go the full £1.

 

[Crow]

I’ll host anyone at Libbaton GC who might be coming up to N Devon for hols or playing Saunton/N Devon for chucking in £20 to the H4H pot.

Had a very enjoyable day with Old Skier at Libbaton today and can thoroughly recommend it to anybody else in the area before H4H.
Excellent host and the course was in fine shape.

 

[Smiffy]

'Nicolas Trudgian’s limited edition pays tribute to the most versatile aircraft of World War Two and the valiant crews that took them into battle.

Nicolas Trudgian’s new painting, Mosquitos at Dusk, conveys in an instant all the attributes of this outstanding attack aircraft With their twin Merlins singing at full power, Mk FBV1 Mosquitos of 464 Squadron RAAF present a menacing picture as they set out on a precision low level mission, their streamlined, shark-like shapes silhouetted against the evening glow. Below, the tranquillity of a snow covered English coastal village is briefly disturbed as the Mosquito crews head into the night. A painting worthy of this much acclaimed World War II plane.

35 3/8" wide x 28 7/8" high

Each print in the Aircrew Edition has been authenticated and individually hand-signed in pencil by THREE highly respected pilots who flew the Mosquito in combat with the RAF during World War II.

THE AIRCREW EDITION


Air Commodore JOHN ELLACOMBE CB DFC*
Air Commodore E.B.‘TED’ SISMORE DSO DFC AFC
Flight Lieutenant DOUGLAS HADLAND

We would ask that you set a reserve price of £100 as this was donated to us by a supporter.'



Details above of limited edition print very kindly donated by a supporter of Help For Heroes. Please note there is a reserve of £100 on this print.

Hi Rich. My club Farnham (Sands) is kindly donating a 4 Ball voucher. Many thanks to Ben Beagley our club General Manager for agreeing to donate (maybe my agreeing yesterday to be a mentor for a couple of academy members ?and also to pair up with a new and very keen lady member in the Winter Mixed Foursomes league ? swung it …)

If any forummers are about the day before for the Camberley knock, or are just about and think they might bid for the 4ball, and fancy a look at the goods then if they PM me I may be able to arrange to meet up at the clubhouse.

 

[richart]

I have added some more aution items in the post above. Please pm me any bids you would like to make.

Many thanks to SILH and Swingalot for our most recent auction items. 4 ball at Farnham (Sands) and signed Faldo/Westwood Ryder Cup picture.
