A wonderful end to another great H4H weekend
First I hosted 2blue ,Kraxx and Khamelion at mine on the Saturday and in lovely sunshine we had a great afternoon - it seems Kraxx had a whole years worth of Tim Vine one liners to get out
On the Sunday we were kindly hosted by Slasher at Bearwood Lakes - another lovely afternoons golf and an added bonus of a HIO from a forumer
Then onto the curry in Farnborough - excellent choice by Fish , always great to meet up with old friends and get to know some new friends
And finally the main event today - it was exactly what a forum day should be , and it was a perfect day to remember a wonderful friend to us all Rick - the speeches were just perfect , wonderful words from Fish , Sandy , Mike and most importantly Rich. Thank you for a superb day my friend - you are also a credit to the forum and golf along with your wonderful wife Vicky - I know how hard today must have been for you both and hope the forum family helped you through it and will do for every H4H day you wish to host

Many thanks for the company over the last couple of days of Rich, Matt and Stu (I told you 40 points would win today) on Sunday and Andy, Paul and Steve today. It has been a superb couple of days. Roll on tomorrow for the next great day.

Not a lot I can add apart from what a cracking day. Thanks to all the H4H team who put this together, thanks to GM , all the sponsors and Sandy (it was right that you got the Rick G trophy, I could see how much it meant to you.)
Here's looking forward to the next one.

Just got home after another great few days of golf.
Thanks to Rich and everybody who made it happen, Blackmoor and Camberley were in great condition and I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Some great comments made by others which I won't repeat, but must say thanks to Richard, Vicky, Robin and the whole H4H team for a very well run and, more importantly, a successful day raising over £12K. Also to GM and Camberley Heath for their part in the day.
Thanks to Rob Smith, Liverbirdie and Philthefragger, top playing partners and while none of us scored outstanding we all had our moments.
The only thing stopping the day from being perfect was that Rick wasn't there.

It was emotional for everyone yesterday and, I'm sure, very difficult for all concerned, but you all coped spectacularly well and it was really a great day. The new RickG award was amazing and Sandy did well not to end up a total blubbering wreck!
Camberley put on a great day on a smashing course and the food, I thought, was spot on. It was great to meet up with so many old friends and especially to meet and put faces to guys who I'd not met before. I played with Odvan (Matt) who was a joy to spend time with, and Sandy who is always great company.
My thanks go to all the people who worked so hard to put on the day and especially to Fish for stepping up to the plate and taking on Ricks role so ably!

My thanks to my playing partners Barry Field and Steve "ArnoldArmChewer" for an excelent round of golf and fine craick as they would say, only one missing was our playing partner the invisible man.
A fine day out.

Can only echo some of the fine words above. I thought you all did a great jobs particularly with the difficult speeches.
Thanks to my playing partners "Uncle" Dave, John and Paul. Just a shame between us we couldn't buy a putt!

Another great day!
Well done to everyone, loadsa cash raised and a good time was had.
Thanks to Sean and Robin - a pleasure as always
But special thanks to Jimmy, our BattleBack guy.
An inspiration - and the makings of a decent player...but off a much lower handicap!😝
Rich,Vicki and the girls,Robin and a host of others succeeded again.
The RickG award is something else - I hope someone has a pic..

Great to meet you Mark. You played well on Sunday to walk away with the pot! However, I'm still disappointed there was no 2's pot after my efforts on the 17th at Blackmoor
Camberley was spot on yesterday. Thanks to everyone who made it happen. Amazing course, fantastic company, and an even better cause. Roll on 2017!

Thanks to Richard, Robin and everyone else for arranging yesterday, really fantastic event. Couldn't have asked for any better pp's for my first forum meet in Dave and Simon who were great company for myself and my guest. Really enjoyable day and can't wait for the next, just hope my golf improves. Only downside was ripping the wing mirror off the car on the gate when I got home

Just reading the thread on how good a day it was and how emotional it must have been is bringing a tear to my eye. Gutted to have missed this years event, but I will be back next year.

What a great 2 days I have just had.
Firstly to Blackmoor and for Rich for the invite its always a pleasure to play such a nice course and the company is always good.
Thanks to Mike,Elliot and Liverbirdie for a lovely round played in good spirits and some really nice golf with a little bit of garbage thrown in always a good recipe.
The course was in good condition but a little late in the year for the course to be in full bloom,however I did nearly play the whole round in just polo shirt.
Booked myself into the Village Hotel in Farnborough[don't trust the sat nav for directions[not mine anyway],a nice hotel but boy I was in a room made for dwarfs[no disrespect],I had to get on my knees to make the sink the right height,the shower only came up to my chest and the kettle had the smallest lead so I had to prop it up to reach the plug socket,a nice big bed and a big tele softened the blow.
Up early unlike some hey Fish to put some signs up and get ready for a cracking day.
What can I say that has not already been said but to me it is my favourite game of my year just because it has a special feel to it, something that going to year after year meeting old and new friends just gives you a warm feeling.
Thanks to my playing partners Rupert,Zeno and Karl for your company I enjoyed it although I knew I was in trouble after you all bombed it past me on our first hole.
Zeno is a very good player off 12 and is a battleback guy and it was great to play with him, Karl hits it miles and will get lower and ive learnt one thing about Rupert,not to mention winning when he only has 5 holes to play
Thanks to Camberley for making us so welcome and making things run very smoothly,the food was fantastic and the staff so well drilled I would suspect a return visit some day.
In Mark we have one helluva good auctioneer the way he plays the room and eeks out that extra 10 or 20 quid when it looks like the bids have stopped is very impressive and it was a pleasure to be your tosser for the auction[you had to be there].
Its obvious Mike and Sandy are massive supporters of the day and as they both said that will continue as long as they are wanted and Sandy was dually awarded the Rick Garg wood carving for services to the cause and she did a fantastic job of keeping it together it was very emotional.
Looking forward to playing with you next year.
To everyone who played,to everyone who couldn't come but donated,to everyone who bought something at the auction or a round beforehand all our money helps this fantastic cause.
To Rich,Vicky and your fantastic helpers you did an incredible job once again,you are inspirational and long may that continue.
I'm sure there are some tough decisions to be made in the future but for the time being well done.
Lastly a mention to my mate Fish who probably had the toughest job of all filling the boots of Rick and I can tell you now mate like I did yesterday you did a great job and Rick would have been proud,your speech was from the heart and you delivered it impeccabley.
R.I.P Rick never forgotten
