No probs, i'll ring round a few and see what availability there is. Its probably best to stay around the coast as a lot of courses up here are drying out from torrential downpours on Wednesday.

Stu, let me know how the babysitter hunt goes mate.

I could be interested in a Sunday afternoon round. Not sorted a place to stay yet but plenty of hotel options in Southport or lytham within a few miles of hillside.

lytham is a good run from hillside,plenty of places in southport i think a few lads are staying at the best western (the clifton) not a bad hotel and a fabulous italian restaurant about 50 yds away.

Stu/Junior, Lee park members can get on Hesketh on a 2 for 1 basis. You only need two "names" to make up a 4 ball. So £25 each, I think, or that's what we paid last year during the week. Nice course also, good value for half-bat.

Cheers mate, The website looked good. Im not sure what time will be best for stu/rick, i can play am or pm though. Tuesday seems to be a popular for ladies day in Southport.

I didnt check Lytham or Blackpool Northshore, which might be good options.

Hesketh looks fab on the website and loving the history...established 1885.........i have the entire day off so no problems playing afternoon.......I can have a lay in and get some lazy brunch before a leisurely pre match practice........price sounds good as well....

Hesketh is booked for 1350 ! Hopefully Stu can make it, plus anyone else who fancies it. They have a driving range and practise facilities so we can loosen up a bit first!

It hosted the*Junior Open Championship in 2008*and the*Centenary Lancashire Amateur Championship in 2010 and was co-host with Hillside for the 2011*Amateur Championship, so hopefully its improved since fat-tiger played it!

IMHO it has got more than 4 good holes, £65 is steep, but worth £40 of anyones money. get Stu to book through lee park to save you a few bob on a 2 for 1. There is a few samey holes in the middle, but a decent track.

Bear in mind fat tiger must have played 20 of the top 100 UK courses this year, so might have a very high standard to compare with.
