We actually almost got a shot of the 2 of them shaking hands, which would have been framed and inserted into all future threads between them ,where things get a bit ripe.

Twas good to see them in jovial discussion :)
 
Sorry about this late post re the HFH day - just changed Internet Provider and been having connection problems.

Mondays Help For Heroes day was probably the best Forum day that I've been involved in. What a fantastic golf course, tough but fair and one that has to be played a few times to do it justice!

Thank you to Rick and Richard for all your super efforts and not forgetting, PATIENCE, with having to keep us all informed throughout the year. Of course big thanks must go to all your merry helpers on the day too.

My thanks to my playing partners, Simon (Slime), Adrian, (Adimel) and Ian, Slime's guest. Was a real pleasure to share the day with you and would welcome a game any time.
It's already been mentioned numerous times about how Adimel enjoyed his day, despite not scoring how he would have liked. We did have a laugh after a few holes when I asked him his score, "Can't you guess", he said, with a big beaming smile on his face. Just his whole attitude to the game has to be admired, and as Slime has already mentioned, not once did I see him get annoyed, swear, (unlike me :o:o) or even think of throwing a club.

As well as recognising all the efforts of GB72 I think a mention should also go to, Fish and Rooter, for their fundraising via the forum - great stuff guys. :thup:

West Hill Golf Club - what a place! Appreciation to everybody at the club for their hospitality - would love to go back some time for another round at such a lovely course.

I'm always interested to hear the speech made by the HFH leader and have huge respect for his enthusiasm and drive for the Charity. It was an honour to be involved in raising such an astonishing amount of money - £20.000 must be the target for next year......... :whistle:

...for anyone that didn't get to see it.........

The curry meal was very nice, and they modified my choice for me so all good. I think both of us walked in the kitchen looking for the toilets though :rofl:

When I'm up your neck of the woods again I'll drop you a pm, we'll have to go out and pull up a few sand bags, swing the lantern and tell a few tales over a few beers, sure Brian would be up for that also :mmm:

Did someone mention a few mugs of Horlicks and a discussion about knitting patterns...?

How's it going Smiffy ?
 
Brilliant photos of Duncan there Rich....I found 3 balls and a skeleton at the bottom of that ditch whilst looking for Duncan's ball....:rofl:
 
I had a great time on Monday, despite my shoddy performance, I can take away with me some memories of the few decent shots i played, the great company during the round with Paperboy aka Simon and his guest Steve (and the father in law) the awesome Mark Head the auctioneer who had me in stitches at times, the West Hill team for a great course and an even better two courses in the evening!

To Rich, Rick, their ladies and all behind the scenes a huge thanks for a day to remember. GM H4H european tour next year? :p
 
I would just like to add my thanks to Rich & Rick for a fantastically organised day, I had a brilliant time at what was my first forum meet. Loved the course, it's just a shame that on the day my game wasn't up to the challenge. I did however meet some great people and still left at the end of the day with a smile on my face. Thanks must go to my playing partners, Robert (Full Throttle), Mike (MashyNiblick) and Guy (Midnight) who made it an enjoyable experience for me and kept me entertained.

I look forward to attending many future events.
